Story-telling Unit: Filming Prop and Wardrobe list

I went through the first 2-3 pages of my script to see what I needed before I begin filming and came up with a list of things.

• Picture of a male couple in a frame
• 2 glasses of juice
• Fake Newspaper/magazine from page
• iPhone 
• Leah - dress, looking fashionable/ girly, heels, full make up, hair curled or straightened
• Sophie - hoody, trackie bottoms, trainers, no make up, hair tied back

After making the list I knew I needed to start searching for 2 older male actors to photograph to play Sophie's parents. However as 2 of my friends parents are gay I may just ask them if they wouldn't mind me using a picture of the 2 of them together instead as they are of the age Sophie's parents would be.

I also needed to get to work on creating the front page for my newspaper or magazine article. If I can't make a newspaper front page I may just have a newsletter and have Sophie turn that over instead. Obviously this will involve changing the script slightly but if it will mean I can create a better finished article I'll be happy to do this. It will probably be easier to do the latter than anything else but I'm going to explore both options as I would really like to have a newspaper for authenticity purposes. 

Best get creating,

Stay safe,

Helen
