Props

The phone used in our film is the main prop, it is a major part of iconography. At the beginning of our film, we see Amelia pick up her phone but the audience aren't aware that an unknown number is calling her. Later, when Amelia is walking home by herself and the audience see the call from the unknown number. This starts to raise suspicion. The crack on the screen suggests that Amelia is careless and vulnerable.

We got inspiration from the film 'Scream'. In 'Scream', the phone ringing suggests that something bad is about to happen, so we used this idea in our own film. Also in 'Scream', Casey picks up the phone and starts talking to the killer but she doesn't realise that she is about to be killed as she is naive and immature.


To create the fake blood we needed for the trees, we used gelatine for the thickness and red and blue food colouring for the colour. This made the blood look more realistic. It also made our film more unnerving.
