Resit - Final Props

This is the candle we used. We chose a red candle to signify the love she feels for Chris and the "burning desire" as red connotes passion and lust. It could be seen as their love burning away, with fire being an element in some horrors. We chose to use three candles and set them up in a triangle shape around Katie, who is sitting on the floor, to connote the love triangle they are in.


This is a screenshot from Halloween 2, where the fire is the main part of a scene. The impact is has is large and fills the shot, and this is what we do with our candle flame.



This is the knife we used when Katie stabs Annie in the back as she is walking. It is a kitchen knife so it would be accessible to anybody, therefore creating verisimilitude as it is realism. Kitchen knives are the most commonly used knife in horror films.

This is a screenshot from Scream (1999). It is showing just how easily accessible kitchen knives are to the characters.


These are the pictures we used to pin to the tree. This was used to create the 'shrine' the Katie creates surrounding her ex-boyfriend Chris. They were placed so they could easily move in the wind and make it appear sinister. The pictures are of our actor Tamer Saleh, and as Chris, this pictures would be accessible to Katie from photo albums and Facebook profiles.
