Props & Costume

As our film will be showing the protagonist getting smaller, we will be using various props that she will encounter when small. Our original idea was to make large props, for example, a large coin, or sweet wrapper; everyday objects in which you could possibliy come across down the side of the sofa.

However, as we are know longer using the idea of the sofa, but using other parts of the house instead to film, we will not need to make large props. Whilst filming today, we used various probs, inwhich the protagonist will come across whilst small. We filmed, Christmas decoration houses, and we will use the green screen, to merge the images creating the effect of the character being inside.

We also shot different angles of cabinets and floors, so we can show the character just walking along these while small.

We used Christmas decorations, such as beads, an advent calander, crackers, a snowman ornament and party poppers, to set the time of year.
Instead of pulling the cracker alone to turn her small, we used a party popper instead. This worked well because the inside of the party popper burst towards the camera, creating the illusion of a bang, causing the character to change height.
