Costume and Props (Planning)

Malevolent Phantom

Costume and Props

In our film our characters are wearing different outfits to show the importance of a specific character - Lucy, played by our talented actress Chloe Hicks (me). I will wear black jeans, black shoes and a vibrant colourful button coat. The coat will be black and pink checkered, we chose this so it would stand out from the other characters and show the audience that she is the main character and the focus of the scene. The other character 'Amelia' will wear plain and simple clothing, showing she is less important than 'Lucy'. 

The main and only prop that was used was the girl's phone, in which the mother calls to tell her to hurry home. This then panics 'Lucy' as she has no choice but to venture through the woods to arrive home in time. The phone adds tension to the scene as 'Lucy' is forced to go through the woods, Lucy is looking around deciding which way to go feeling cold and worried when a call comes through teh break the tension. This immerse the audience as they feel like they are 'Lucy' and therefore empathise with her as she has to take the dreaded walk through the woods.
