Props and character selection

Today we compiled a list of all the props and filming equipment needed to make this project a success. We decided the best thing would be to compile the list, get all the items, and then split the cost of all the products so the distribution of cost is equal. We need a plain white shirt for the kidnapped person to wear which cost around $3/$4. Next needed was a blank mask from Party City which cost $3.99. Finally, fake body parts to place into the cabinet where the kidnapped character is given this jump scare reaction. This ranges from $5-$10. For filming, we would need a tripod and microphone that can be plugged into a phone. Most cheap tripods that are extendable range anywhere from $15-$25. Likewise, I already own a microphone that can be plugged into a phone. However the only issue there is that my iPhone doesn't have a headphone jack. However, this can easily be fixed with a dongle which I own. We were also able to select who would be perfect for each role. I would act as the main director and filmogropher as it was decided that I have the most creative decision on the project so far, and it would be easiest for me to be able to portray what was expected of the actors. Nico would be our main killer as his acting skills would be too poor for being the kidnapper so his role would be simple through being a masked killer. Likely his large stature provides large impression and fear in the viewers to truly believe what is being portrayed to them on the screen. Lastly, the last delegated job would go to the last member of the group Antonio as his acting skills would be just as well as size to be dragged by the killer isn't the hardest thing to maintain.
