Current Props used:

The current props in which we have used have been rather a lot but accessible.

We have used for an office scene a table which replicated a desk, some pins which gave the impression of paperwork, a work folder which gave the impression of confidential work, a plant as a sense of organic; a sense that the spy is new and doesn’t actually know what he does yet. We also had to use for this scene a pen, keys, a swivel chair as well as the suit which gave the professional look of the actor.

Within the flash of light scene we had to organise to use a black dark room, then with a flip camera we recorded an apple iPhone flashing a vision of light up in the dark giving a sense of a rush that is not completely visible has occurred. We used an apple iPhone as it was accessible and very good at flashing the light, it gave the vision and footage in which we needed and wanted for the opening title sequence.

We also filmed a bird flying in the sky although, the bird can be seen as a prop it was not an organised one as, it was very spontaneous in terms of flying and we couldn’t really organise how the bird was going to fly or capture one to set free. So, in terms of this footage we just filmed for a while waiting for a bird to fly across in which it did. This type of prop was rather hard to use as we couldn’t have the control in which we had with all of the other props.

We have also filmed a bird fake "pooling" onto my arm this was just about trying to find out which prop would best replicate the poo and give that sense of realism that the audience needed portrayed as, it was key as it resembled the thematic of luck. We just used squirt cream which was supplied by Nicola. The blazer in which the cream was squirted on was supplied by me.

Our last piece of footage in which we filmed for our opening title sequence was basically trying to film the name forming on the shoulder. This started off as being rather problematic as, it didn’t actually keep the name when we wrote into the cream with pen as, this heating inside was rather hot. So, then we basically poured cream onto black sugar paper; the same colour as my blazer and tried writhing it in with a pencil unfortunately, it did not work again. So, we photographed the sugar paper and Louise taking control of the computer formed an amazing name using Photoshop. This worked very well that we are contemplating using the method if we are stuck again.
