Sourcing Costumes and Props

With regards to costumes used within the film, I have opted out for any specific clothing choices, and simply stated that the actor should appear wearing relatively normal clothing as well as a coat because of the cold weather. There may also be a chance of rain during the external part of filming. While this may help the overall look of the film, it is by no means necessary to the storyline and/or production of the film itself.

The only props that are required throughout the whole trailer are a card and a mobile phone. Regarding the card, I went out and purchased one after searching through several different cards to see which one worked best. One of the things I took into consideration when making this choice was the visibility of the text on the card to make it obvious to the audience exactly what the card was for. I believe my final choice matched this criteria perfectly. As for the mobile phone, I decided upon a regular modern phone, continuing with the idea that, for the most part, the film should remain as 'regular' as possible, focusing on the character's emotions and development to generate most of the 'horror' within the trailer.
