Final Props

As we were only filming a trailer, we found that we didn't use any significant props. A trailer is often kept minimal, with the set and characters established. The most important prop we used was the car:


We wanted it green to connote the envy the female getting out of the car feels towards Helen. We decided to not use the props we were intending to use because of the complexity of getting the specific objects we required and also with problems with our casting, we didn't have enough members to play lots of different people.
When looking at trailers, the set is very minimalistic. For example, the trailer for the return of Eastender's Kat and Alfie is minimalist and doesn't include many props and relies heavily on the set.
All we can see of the set is the pub, which is the focus of Eastenders and features in a lot of trailers.
