Final Props (changed)


This is one of the guns we are going to use in our opening two minutes. It is a standard looking gun of a similar style to those used in the other movies that we studied. It is a good gun for us to use as the main weapon of the gangsters as not only does it look the part and is plausible that a gangster would be carrying a similar weapon, but its color makes it catch the eye, which is needed as the location we are going to film in is dark, so a black gun would not stand out enough.

This is the second gun that we will be using during our filming. Like the first gun, it is a standard looking pistol that might be carried by gangsters. The reason why we did not select this gun to be used as the main gun is due to its color. As the gun is black and the location that we are filming in will be quite dark, this gun will not stand out enough for the audience to be able to see what it is, for this reason, the silver gun will be used during the shooting scene.

This is the last gun that will be used during the making of our opening two minutes. This is a more military style pump action shotgun that will be used by our snitch. Unlike the two gangsters, the snitch does not need to transport this weapon anywhere therefor it can be larger than the weapons being carried by the gangsters. We chose this gun due to its sheer presence and the ability to use it during our fight scene. Unfortunately this gun is black which will mean that it will not stick out in the dark, meaning that the viewers may have a hard time seeing the weapon, but there is nothing we can do about this so it will just have to do.


During our filming we will also have a red Jerry/petrol can made of plastic, filled with water of course and not petrol. This will be used to "burn down" the hut where we are filming in our opening two minutes. This is nothing special and can be bought at almost all petrol stations. We used this container as it makes it clear to the audience that there is petrol inside and not another liquid, as petrol is clear it could be mistaken for a different substance.
