Actual Task Log: Mise en scène, including props and costume

Costume:
Jake being the only character left costume choice to be quite simple and easy. For Jakes' costume, we put him in a suit: a hardworking business man. We thought our audience could relate to this well, be it sixth-former or young person in work. He will be carrying a briefcase to add to the costume.
For the field shots, Jake will be in average clothes, looking quite ordinary. A plain T and some tracksuit bottoms, possibly with a jacket.

Props:
The probs we will need for our opening will be quite simple as there are not many.
We need a briefcase for Jake to show that Jake is quite significant and has an important job. We will also need a dog lead to use with the dog and sunglasses to show that Jake is a laidback, cool kind of character. Other than this there are no more probs, except the dog.

Mise-en-scène:
In the street scenes there will be cars and buildings something we cannot change but will still add to the effect of an everyday lifestyle. All the lighting throughout the production will be natural and not at all artificial.
In the field scenes there will be trees and bushes ect, again something we cannot change but something that will add to the effect.
