Below are 3 pictures of the killers costume. We went for the traditional killer impression by choosing dark clothes that connote danger and a sense of detached emotion. The only slight problem we faced was that the overall costume did not look how we expected, as the actual clothes designer was not the typical villain outfit. On the other hand, it signifies that the horror is set in a modern era and helps create realism by having a more believable killer.
Below is an image of the victims clothing. We chose these clothes to display a generic female teenager - the typical victim in horror films, i.e. "damsel in distress". These clothes reflect modern day, again creating realism.
Props:
One prop that we used was a shovel, this was used for the killer's weapon.
The prop was easy to get hold of and strayed away from typical traditional weapons. E.g. Kitchen knives.
One of the problems we faced with our prop was the effect it produced whilst the killer was holding it. Our expectations of how we thought it would look were very different as we expected it to be more menacing.
Then again because this prop isn't necessarily associated with weaponry it helped build suspicion of the killer, rather than make it obvious like a knife would've done.
A second prop was the victims MP3 player which she is listening to at the beginning. We used this prop to create realism by showing that the victim is just an average person living life generically.
