Materials List

Hey blog! Today my group members and I are making a materials list in order to be more prepared for the project. We have really pushed off working on it a lot, because we have all been super busy with school and extracurriculars. However, we didn't realize how fast the due date is approaching and want to film this weekend. They looked at me crazy when I said that because it is so soon, but I think we can do it. 

Today we went scene by scene in order to see what supplies we need to get. We want to divide them up so we each can get a few, and in the end have them all ready by the weekend. The prop list we came up with is below! 

Props for media studies:

Opening Scene (burying the body):

Second part:
