Props, Costumes and Locations Lists

Props

Dog

The dog would be used with the two characters walking through the park. The dog is significant because it will find the body of the dead girl .

Phone

 The phone is going to be used by one of the characters who would call for help when they find the body of the dead girl.

Threatening note 

 The note with the threatening message on it to the two characters will be held by the dead girl. This is significant because it will tell the audience and the two characters that they are next because they found the body. This will create a sinister atmosphere for the opening sequence. 

Costume

The two characters walking through the park will be wearing warm, winter clothes such as coats, jumpers, jeans or leggings and then hats, scarves and gloves. This shows that it is very cold in the park, possibly early in the morning. The cold weather would give the opening sequence a chilling, eerie atmosphere because the setting may be darker than if this took place in the summer. The clothes that they would be wearing would look relatively normal showing that walking the dog would be an everyday activity and they do not expect anything unusual to come out of it.

The dead girl would also be wearing normal clothes such as jeans or leggings and a jumper which shows that she was caught by surprise when she died as she was having a normal day just as the two characters who find her were. Her clothes however, would be a bit older and have a lot of dirt on them to show that she had been in the clearing for a long time.

The killer would be wearing all black or dark clothing to show the representation that he is evil and dangerous. The dark colours would also show that he would not want to be seen, especially in the dark.

Locations:

Our opening sequence will be set in a park that looks very remote and isolated. This will create the sense of danger for the two characters walking through the park and puts the audience on edge because the two characters are alone in the park and anything can happen to them. The location would be quite a woody area in the park so that there is a place for the body of the dead girl to be hidden.
