Props






We are planning to use some props in our title sequence as it helps to explain the storyline. The most important prop is the bag. The bag with the 'Natalie Grey' tag on it. This bag signifies something has happened to Natalie Grey and her bag has mysteriously appeared with the other bags in the wood by the camp. There should be a really obvious shot of this bag, and of the tag, to clearly show the importance of the bag.

Another prop we are going to use is the board the killer has of newspaper clippings. The board will have newspaper clippings of missing persons and have images. The missing persons are all quite young, so the viewer can make the link between the young persons from the board, and the developing photo. Natalie Grey will be shown on the missing persons board. There should be a close up shot of this so the audience can mark the importance of Natalie Grey and the killer, and the bag and the fact she is missing.
We will also have a close up of the killer circling Natalie Grey, so need a marker pen in order to do this. I think a black one would be best suited as it is opaque and is the darkest colour, and the killer is dark and mysterious and sinister; black is quite a sinister colour.

There aren't any major props to be used in the title sequence. The dark room may use props, but these are the proper tongs and equipment used in a dark room.

The props are strictly Natalie Grey based, so the viewer can make the link with her and the killer and her importance in the film.
