Props:
Fake Blood: In our film we used fake blood during the stab scene to make it looks as realist to the audience as possible. The fake blood looked very realistic and emphasises the physical distress and extremity of the situation.
School Tie: Although the tie may be considered a part of the costume it is not actually worn by any character in our film it used to shown that Trey is failing and school and that is why it blows away after we see him close to getting kicked out of school. The tie blowing away in the wind symbolises the loss of hope and creates an initial sympathy for the character.
Mobile Phone: During the opening scene we see Trey on the phone talking to his friends, this is done to show that he is normal school boy as this was a typical convention we found through planning and research into our film. When the phone is being used it creates an almost enigma code as the audience are unsure who the character is talking to and the link between the phone conversation and the stabbing.
