Props

Last week we began to make our props towards the lead up of our filming. We wanted to have a specific shot in our trailer where the audience is able to see the 'Gangsters' mug shots. To make our mug shot information cards we first drafted them on powerpoint ensuring we used the correct font for the mugshot card. We made the background black and added white font ensuring the font was consistent in style and size for all of the mug shots. We then printed the mug shot out in A4 and backed it onto card so they were more sturdy and would stand out better on camera. We also had to do a test to make sure you were able to see the mug shots through the camera incase we needed to make any minor adjustments such as making the font bolder/bigger or the card itself bigger etc. The mug shot information cards may aslso come in handy for our magazine front cover or poster as they are an ideal props to give away the genre of our film.
