film, showing the audience the current time. This will
be situated on the wall.
Mobile Phone – This prop is needed in the beginning
scene when the male picks up his phone due to a
prank call. This will be situated on the table. A mobile
phone is a convention of the thriller genre as from real
media that I have researched, such as KNOWING TOO
MUCH and TAKEN, they use a mobile phone, so this
will therefore mean that the audience will know what
type of genre this film is.
Table & Chairs – These props are needed for the male
and the female to sit on when they are talking
together at the beginning of the film. They will be

from here. It will be situated in the
cupboard where the music is being played.
