This is police tape that we ordered from Ebay that is stereotypically found at a crime scene. We planned to wrap this around the park we have chosen as the setting for the daughters last appearance. We believe this will add to the verisimilitude of the trailer. By adding clips such as long shots of the park, and close ups of the tape this add to the realism of the production exciting the audience further.
Another prop we decided to include was a clock. As we plan to include the ticking of a clock as sound in our trailer we realised this would connotate well with a clock being shown. Therefore we have decided to include shots of the clock at the 'breaking point' for the main character. At this point we will show a close up of the main character Sarah smashing up the clock with a base ball bat. This is because we want to depict to the audience how Sarah is losing her calm and is becoming psychologically distressed by what has occurred. The two images show the clock before and after it was smashed during filming.
This is an image of a missing persons report. We have included this as a prop because during the trailer we plan to include shots of Sarah becoming obsessed with finding her daughter and missing children etc. Therefore we planned to include clips of her aggressively searching through websites and news articles online of missing child. We have shown this through close ups of her hands on the mouse, aggressive typing and also a shot of this missing persons report being printed out of the printer.
To further indicate to the audience our main characters deterioration we have decided to include clips of her reaching for alcohol bottles, taking pills etc. This is an image of a bottle of vodka we have filmed being smashed and our main character holding the glass. We plan to slow this clip down in adobe premiere pro to show a slow mo of the glass breaking. Foreshadowing the breakdown of our main character mentally.
