- watermelon creates accurate stabbing sound and fits well into the genre as it makes the kill seem more realistic
- baseball bat shows the brutality of the killers and their lack of remorse which plays into the genre as it is not only brutal but effective in use and it also inflicts pain without death
- knife to show effective and swift method used but also an intention to inflict pain which fits into the genre as its what killers want
- the fake blood plays well into the genre as it portrays it as gory and a real murder
- the camera and equipment being used will give an accurate picture and sound to the events
- the plastic sheets show the killer as careful but also an intention to get messy playing into the genre idea that they are unable to control themselves
- the duck tape allows the victim to be seen as weak and not in control which fits into the genre as that is exactly what the killer wants to do - be more powerful
Examples of how the props used are similar to those used in other films:
-this clip from a tv talk show clearly shows how fake blood is used in many recreational stunts such as stabbings and murders and also shows the real life like look of a professional fake blood scene
-lots of films use duck-tape in order to gag a victim but we actually didn't use this in the end as the kill was impulsive and not delayed by a tying up scene
-the GoPro gives a first person view of a scene and amplifies the scene as you can follow the events as it appears from your point of view, the clip below is an example of what can be done using a GoPro as a first person point of view, however even though we did not actually use this in the end as we did not need to it was a positive that we had the option to
-plastic sheeting used applies to a clever and experience killer e.g. dexter
