Final Props Decisions

To the left of this text shows a briefcase that we placed in the back of a scene. This shows a stereotypical agents briefcase with all of the essentials that he needs for his line of work so for example the spare phone, the gun and the knife. This is an essential convention of a hit-man and adds an extra dimension of detail to our character. It also adds to the verisimilitude of the piece as the audience may see this in the back of a shot in the opening, helping to create believability of the piece, as well as the professionalism.

To the right of this text shows the pin board prop that we used in the shed to make it look more like his office. This particular prop is placed in most action films and is an essential convention of a hit-man or of any action film. This, again, helps to add believability of the film as, although its only in shot for a few seconds, it's an added extra that a viewer might see to help him engage with the film. On the prop, you can see both future and past assignments our protagonist has had to do and their whereabouts.
