Props and costume

Props are absolutely imperative in order to employ the drama within a film. They can often be symbolic for example the teddy used in Rosie as a child's scene was important to connote innocence which helped to make it all the more menacing for when the ghostly lady haunts her.

Props needed
knife
chair
bed
whiteboard
pen
teddy

Costumes are often a method of expression not only in real life but also in film. The way a character dresses is often a reflection of their personality. It is very easy to assume a persons characteristics through their clothes for example through stereotyping you may assume someone with long dark hair and skinny jeans is a fan of rock music. We used the idea of these non verbal codes to establish a character for Rosie in which she was reliant, vulnerable, kind and scared. We wanted our play to look as realistic and true to life as possible this meant regular outfit changes for Rosie.
