Despite Becky being ill still and Martyn having other commitments, myself and Leonie went up to our town’s shopping centre to start some searching for our shopping for our production, this will be on a budget, so we are trying to keep costs down as much as possible, despite this, we went on a search for props and costumes.
We already had a shopping list of what we need for the project, so we started searching for anything on that list. We need a jacket for the lead male, which will have to suit our actor perfectly and be able to show what period exactly the drama is in. We also need a very old book, leather cover and everything, which is one of the major props for the Regency part of the film. We spent most of the morning looking for the perfect dress for the lead female, and there were so many different ‘interesting’ items we were close to giving up before finding something different, something that could have been around back in that period. Myself and Leonie also came to the conclusion the budget will come out of our own funds, a quarter each, which is fair. Detail will be gone into on Leonie’s section on costume and Martyn’s section on props. We did not buy anything yet as the other two members were not with us, as it is a group effort and everybody should and will have their say, however we found a couple items of intrest, which will be discussed at the next group meeting
