Prop Prep

To begin filming, procuring props became our first task. Considering varied scenes, we made a comprehensive list of necessary props. A crucial prop was a car, thankfully one of us had a license and access to a car. The car would feature prominently in the initial scenes of our movie. Board game scenes required a game accommodating three players with money involved. After a brief search, we found a Monopoly game with the required elements. We studied the game's instructions for efficient setup during filming. The script demanded scenes of us searching for amusing activities discreetly. The hunt for funny and unexpected places led us to consider spots like a washing machine and see-through glass cups. In line with our comedy theme, we decided on both smart and hilariously wrong locations. Selected places included a flowerpot, a cabinet, and behind pillows on a couch. Preparing these areas posed challenges due to clutter and unwanted objects. Some spots required complete emptying to ensure a clean setup for filming. The final challenge was acquiring alcohol, given legal and financial constraints. A quick solution arose when we discovered half-filled liquor bottles in a drawer. This blog captures our collaborative decision-making process regarding props and scenes. Our collective effort ensured a productive day leading up to the actual filming. The challenges we faced during prop preparation highlighted our teamwork and problem-solving skills. Excitement builds as we have successfully tackled hurdles, gearing up for the filming day.


Stay tuned for more updates as our filmmaking journey unfolds, and thanks for following along!
