Main Task - Props used

The use of props in our film will improve the authenticity, making it seem more realistic & 'of the time'  therefore improving the likelihood of a professional look and feel to the film.
The props we intend to use are items that are typical of either a writer, a smoker, or a general citizen of that era. They are:
  • 50's style typewriter
  • 50's style radio
  • Old (expensive looking) scotch glass
  • Genuine newspapers/newspaper extracts
  • Non genuine newspaper articles that follow the plot of the film (to push the narrative)
    • Although we had originally planned to use a picture of Cole Kelso in one of these newspaper clippings we were unable to due to time restraints, but instead used an archived picture of a New York crime scene.
  • Old style ash tray
  • Cigarettes
  • Old style, reasonably expensive looking writer's desk
  • Dark Old style wooden chair (with leather upholstery)
