Location

For locations, there isn't a set location that we are going to be in as it is all about the flashbacks and going to different places and times. this will be hard as we have to ensure that everywhere we go to film there isn't anything there that would suggest a different era. We will be posting up some photo's of our locations soon as we need to find them and ensure we will be ok to film there too. Our ideas for location have been in fields without cars or houses in the background, an army base or cadet base to get a look at the uniform, and also a couple of rooms, one being blank and another having more objects of that era in.

Props

For props, we are thinking of old photos of war and the army, medals from war, uniforms, clothing from the specific times and anything that we need to put in the room where the character is in. Here is what we have got so far which is authentic photo's and medal generously supplied by my grandad.

Sound

During the research for my short film I have looked at the music that people in that era would have listened to as this is a very important factor of my short film. Ensuring I get the correct era for ,y short film is vital otherwise it wouldn't correctly portray that time and storyline. In finding the music of that era was simpler than previously expected, our search lead us to the BBC website, you can have a look at this website here.

Script

We have decided that we are not having any dialogue, there may be some at the end which we are yet to really need to think about properly and go through with the scripts to decide. If we do decide there is dialogue, it would be at the end and not much of it as we would rather concentrate on portraying emotions and putting the storyline successfully across to the audience through sound and cinematography, however dialogue may come into it.
