Costuming 
  • The timing takes place in modern times so the clothing and costumes are relaxed and modern.
  • Most of the costuming are clothes that we have already purchased and wear every day.

Props
  • The props used in my film are all common items found inside a home that do not cost anything or need to be purchased.
Locations 
  • Originally the film was going to be shot inside of my home however we decided to film at my aunt's house because of its darker atmosphere and no one would be home during the filming so we would have no disruptions. 
  • My aunt granted us permission to use her house as our filming set while she was away
Dates and Times
  • Filming will take place on the week of March 7th through the 9th 
  • For the filming to be accessible for everyone filming early during the day 
  • The lighting I will be using is natural and light. Filming during the day will be best to show that the story takes place in the morning.

  • The wireless microphone will be purchased on Amazon.
