Today it was finally time for costume and prop hunting! I (well...at least I attempted to) made a vlog of my shopping trip. Luckily my Mother and boyfriend were kind enough to give me a helping hand.
Here are some images of the chosen props...it's difficult to view them on video due to the lighting:
First of all...here is the lovely pair of clip on earrings, purchased from Claire's. They would have worked well for the film because black connotes death and fear. It is a conventional colour choice for horror movies.
However, since purchasing them I have decided to use a pair owned by Leah herself as they are more fitting for the sophisticated, over dressed, look.
Next, after trying both dresses on, Leah and I decided that it would best for her to wear the New Look dress (£4.50 in a local charity shop!). The dress is once again black and very sophisticated. It is long and tight fitting, with very pretty ruffled net sleeves.
And here is the famous tube of fake blood! As I have mentioned so many times before...gore is a very common convention of horror movies. This will be used for the scene of Bonnie getting ready for her date, slicing her finger open with the pin of her earring.
Behold! The talisman. By far the most important prop in the entire film. I am so grateful that my Mother allowed me to borrow it...it is perfect!
Oh, before I forget, here is a picture of James Walter's in his costume. He managed to make an outfit out of his own dark, casual clothing. He looks perfect for the role!
