Hey guys, welcome back to this week’s blog. Our deadline is approaching soon so in these last few posts we will be going over important details in our brief. Today we are talking about each character’s specific props and what they will be wearing. These are likelihoods and not everything is 100% sure but this is most likely what we will see from each character.
Gabo (Nick)- Gabo is a soccer player so in the opening scene when he’s playing, he will be wearing a jersey, shorts, shinguards and cleats since he is in a match. Since Gabo got injured in the match, it is likely that he will be wearing a knee brace to show the legitimacy of his injury. Gabo is also a big fan of soccer since in the scene where he’s getting ready in his room, we will be able to see posters, cleats, jerseys, balls and more. There will also be food (most likely cereal) since Gabo goes to the kitchen in the scene where he talks to Dr. Smith through his phone. Lastly, after Gabo destroys his room from the unfortunate news told to him, he will find a medal he won from when he was much younger and able to play without worries.
Dr. Smith (Rafael)- Dr. Smith is a character with very little screen time so not many props are needed. Most of Dr. Smith’s dialogue is from Gabo’s perspective while he’s eating. The scene in which Dr. Smith does show up though, he will have a pen and paper as he just got results that Gabo’s injury is lethal and he may not be able to play again. Dr. Smith’s may also have a mustache and items such as a stethoscope to show his “doctor” appearance.
The Mayor (Brennan)- The mayor is also a character with little screen time and may not even have dialogue but there are a couple of props he will have. The mayor may have a mustache to show his maturity and will dress formally as a mayor should. The mayor will have a medal to award to younger Gabo as well to show the importance of Gabo’s achievements back when he was younger.
Younger Gabo (Justin)- Younger Gabo will be a character with decent screen time but most of it is dribbling through his opponents and scoring goals. Gabo will obviously be wearing a jersey, shorts, cleats, shinguards, and playing with a ball. After his amazing performance, the mayor will award him with a medal which he will keep until he is older.
Goalkeeper (Nathaniel)- This is a character who shows up early in the scene where Gabo gets injured. The goalkeeper will be wearing a goalkeeper jersey, shorts, shin guards, cleats, and gloves to save and catch the ball.
Defender (Alan)- The defender also shows up in the first scene where Gabo gets injured. This is the defender who is on the opposite team of Gabo and injures him which means he will be wearing a different jersey than Gabo. Overall he will be wearing a jersey, shorts, shin guards, and cleats.
Reflection: Today we discussed the props and costumes of our main characters to help visualize the project beforehand. We will try to make this production accurate as if it were a real story in a real soccer setting by including these props and costumes. Our characters are responsible for their props since it is important to distinguish everyone based on their look. With that being said, thank you for tuning in to this blog and get ready for the next blog as we will be discussing how we will be applying the credits to our 2 minute opening.
