Props & Info...
- A major prop that we have included in our film is a baseball bat, which is used by the actor playing the role of the clown, Robert. We needed the baseball bat so that the clown could be framed walking alongside the car and up and down the road swinging it to create terrifying imagery. A baseball bat is an interesting prop to use, as it is unique in comparison to other horror/thrillers, and allows the audience to be aware that the clown is protected in contrast to the other characters, of who are weapon less. The baseball bat is also used to portray the clown's sense of higher power and authority, against the other characters.
- The type of clothing is symbolic due to it creating a casual and effective look upon the clown therefore, we used a tracksuit to create a strange and different focus. The clown appears to be in a tracksuit to make it look unhygienic and more frightening. Furthermore, it is an original idea, we thought this idea would be interesting as it juxtaposes to other horror and clown films as they tend to be framed wearing scary but bright colours, a typical clown costume.

- Another prop that we need within our film is the clown mask which is significant as it secures the clown and suggests he will be composing his identity. For the clown it could present his sense of higher power in contrast to the other characters within the film who unfortunately do not consist of any props therefore, it shows they are situated in a dangerous and frightening environment, with a concealed enemy.
