Research Props

Props are extremely important in horrors be it the teddy that the baby drops or be it the knife that is used to kill off the college kids props are used in every single horror.  For example in the 80s/90s character Chucky he is a childs doll tha kills off his victis using a basic kitchen knife.

 

My group and I have been working on various concepts and with that we have been thinking of what is suitable and what is needed.  We looked at various websites from the horror party shop.

This website was appealing because it was cheap and also had what we were looking for.  This is mainly because our film trailer is not going to have a lot of drama to the extent of using vampire fangs or props of that nature.  Our trailer is going to include gore more than anything. The next website we looked at was party kiosk. 

 

We looked at this website and found that it was to expensive and had unnesscessary equipment that was not going to benefit our film trailer, e.g. the prop in the image above.  

My group and I have looked at various websites and we have decided on two prop shops and we feel they are cheap and also have excactly what we are looking for... the blood and gore.
