Props

While me and Layla were working on the storyboard Mina came up with a first draft of our props list, this is very important as we have a set designer coming to see us next idea so we need to know what we want and how it should look so we can explain it to him well so he can see our idea too.

We need to have more of a think of what props Emma will need to play with to keep the video interesting,

Props:

Vinyl

Table of sweets and cupcakes

Camera

Photography lights

Light reflectors

Dressing table and mirror

Lights

Full make-up kit

Fur coats / feather boas etc

Clothes rack full of clothes

Glamorous jewellery

Dressing screen

Small round tables

Flowers

Normal café props

Wine glasses

Alcohol bottles

As we continue to develop our idea we have thought more about the sets and are thinking the first one will be very girly with lots of balloons hung around for Emma to dance around and fairy lights which relates to girliness. We are still discussing the second shoot as we have worries now weather the burlesque idea will fit, we want to have the whole shoot as a 60s theme so I think the burlesque might be scrapped and have her in 60s clothes with some props instead.

Hopefully we will be able to gather some props by ourselves for example my Dad is a keen photographer so I have most of the stuff we will need to make it look like a photo shoot, we also think we may have someone who will be able to lend us some clothes and the make-up kit.

Here are some images of the type of props we want:

 

To help complete the mise on scene of the café/bar we thought it would be great if we could get red stools that are commonly found at bars and link witrh the 60s theme, we want to get as many props like this that will make it clear to the audience what the set is suppose to be.

Another idea that Sarah and I came up with was to have fake flowers in the café and maybe her dressing room, these will fit with the girly theme and Emma can use them. We thought she could steal them and try smelling them but then throw them away once she realises that they are fake.
