Zoe and I texted each other when deciding what props to use within our trailer. This collage of photos displays what props we will be using for our film. The bed can also be categorised as a setting because it is in a bedroom, which is where the key psychologically thrilling events take place in our trailer. Alcohol and pills will be fake to ensure that our trailer is filmed safely and no one is harmed. The candle will be used to bring a mysterious element to the trailer. Also, the iPhone will be used for when the mum character rings the police, and when the main girl is looking through photos with her friends that have gone missing. When the girl drinks the (fake) alcohol it connotes that she is under distress, similarly to when she takes the (fake) drugs. A stereotypical psychological thriller convention is to show the leading role, who is usually female, under a lot of distress through using props with negative connotations. 
Well done Rachael, keep posting! Are you going to use audio clips and vlog updates as well? You could have a video production diary. Sir
