I have learned from doing this that the amount of detail that goes into a film, even in the first 2 mins is extremely important as it really helps the over all look of the film. In addition, I have a lot of admiration for the people that have to pick out every little prop it was very challenging.
THE BOYS PROPS
This is the razor used by the boy in the film and because it was a very long clip it had been fast forwarded and this has actually worked very well as I think it goes well because the girls hair clip is fast forwarded so i think it works really well. Also i think that this is a very typical think for a man to do before he goes out. so works well.
This is featured in the film when there is a match on action and the boy is doing his hair. I think this is a very typical thing for a man to do so worked well. In addition, the style of pot with the bright colours makes it very obvious that it is a hair wax pot.
This is the deodorant that the boy uses after he has got changed into clothes and is nearly ready to go out. We decided NOT to use this clip but we have the clip of him putting on the aftershave with hes hands on his neck. But we had a lot of props like this on the edge of the sink to make it look very masculine and like a boys pad bathroom to go along with the genre and stereotypical things of girls and boys.
This was the phone used by the boy to get a text from his mate. I think this phone is very plan but masculine as it have normal colours and is quite heavy and chunky so i think this worked well as it looks like the typical phone of a boy.
This is the can or beer that the boy have before he leaves to go out for the night. I think this is very convincing and even though the boy actor is quite young I feel by having him drink it appeals to the target audience and is very typical of a night out.
(The props in the photos here are not the exact props used but are very close to the real thing)
