Props and Costumes

In our music video, Save the World, we are hoping to use a variety of different props and costumes to fit the genre of house music. Starting with our opening scene being based in a bath we are using this as one of our starting props. There will be two baths as it shows that the two characters are set in different places but are starting their day the same way. The costumes for this scene is meant to look as if we are in the bath but we would obviously have to wear bikini's or swimming trunks as it would be too explicit if not. The next scene is of Kieran in his so called 'drug den'. We will have small bags of flour to portray the look of cocaine and have a spoon with melted sugar and water to look as if he has been doing heroine, we will wrap a belt around his arm to look more realistic. Kieran will be dressed in dark clothing which connotates his depressed mood. The girl will start her day normally, going to work; she will be dressed in bright clothing and act all happy in her office job. The props used in this scene will be the schools equipment of a desk, phone and a computer as we will be filming school's reception as if she was working as a receptionist. When Kieran has passed out from his drugs we are acting as if the day has gone by and it is now night time, by this time the girl is heading out to go to a club, We will have to find a specific door which will allow us access to opening without showing off what is inside the room itself. This will allow us to add in our festival scene as if she is actually there. Soon after we will reverse all of the scenes to go back to the start of them coming out of the bath, this will make the audience think that it is a new day. Kieran gets out of the bath and it jump cuts to him sitting at the train station; once again he is dressed in dark clothing to display his depressed mood towards life. He is sitting on the bench waiting for a train, when the train comes it will leave and he will not be there anymore, we will then cut to him sitting on the train. Meanwhile the girl is already at Southend Pier where Kieran is heading towards to commit suicide. We will have the girl eating candy floss or eating chips as another prop. Once again she will be dressed in bright colours in comparison to Kieran’s dull coloured clothing. We will use the railings of the Pier as another prop for when he is contemplating on jumping off.
