PROP LIST

MALE AND FEMALE ARGUING AND FIGHTING SCENE:
Kitchen setting, dull lighting, plain surroundings, shot near the counter (with all the utensils showing on the top).

• I have chosen to shoot this scene in the kitchen because it reflects the domestic setting that they are living in. I will show the female character being backed up into a corner by the male and this will show his power over her and how he is intimidating her. I could include extra close ups of common kitchen utensils (such as: knives) with the couple shown arguing behind them to show the dangerous nature of their relationship in the beginning.

DESTROYING BEDROOM SCENE:
Double bed, teddies on the bed, disorganised, young adult books on bookshelves, red but dark lighting (as the female character will be upset and angry with life), makeup scattered around on the dressing table, CDs

• I have chosen to shoot this scene in my bedroom because through the use of props within the mise-en-scene this will remind the audience of her youth. Therefore, making it seem more tragic due to the fact that she finds out she has a terminal illness. The disorganised nature of the objects within the room, the teddies on the bed, the makeup and other props such as hair straighteners will portray her youth in particular.
  
  
  

BOXING SCENE
Garage setting, dark lighting, gym specific props (cross trainer, punch bag, boxing gloves, weights)

• This will be where the male is taking out his anger by training in his garage with the punch bag. This will have connotations of anger and sadness and will also suggest to the audience that he has anger issues due to the fact he is directing his anger towards the punch bag in the first place, and that he is having issues with his girlfriend.

BATHROOM, BEDROOM SCENES
Bathroom setting, same props as previous bedroom scene but with light blue lighting.

FLASHBACKS

CAFE SCENE (FILMED AT LEMPICKA CAFE - BEVERLEY)
Daytime, pink furnishings (reinforcing when they were having their good times), two pieces of cake and two coffees (showing that they are eating out together).

• I have chosen to film a scene in a cafe in particular as it represents an activity which many couples do together. It also being one of the little activities that the male took for granted whilst she was well.

PARK SCENE
Focus on the swings, trees and props which are specific to being a child. Use of natural light - towards sunset (symbolising it becoming darker for the male character as he is about to lose her).

TOWN CENTRE SCENE
People surrounding them, shops in sight.

WATCHING A FILM AND PLAYFIGHTING SCENE
Living room setting, sweets (Maltesers or Minstrels), blanket, television, cushions. Lighting used from the lampshades and small lights in the room.

• This is also another common activity which couples do and I chose this as this is what a majority of my target audience can relate to. They may do this themselves regularly with their boyfriend/girlfriend.

DOCTORS SCENE
Outside Manor Road doctors in Beverley, female will hold a letter telling her her diagnosis when she exits. Use of natural light due to time of day when filming.
