Props List
The main props which will be used in the trailer will be the china dolls which will act as the antagonists. The variation of dolls which can possibly be utilised are shown below. Some of these dolls, for example the disney themed characters, cannot be used in full due to their child-friendly appearance, however they can be used for closeups if necessary. In addition, some of the dolls are too pretty looking to seem intimidating, those dolls may be used possibly as extras would be, for use to portray quantity but never to appear as a main threatening 'character' as this would not be effective.

These dolls will be used for closeups or shots using silhouette where necessary. Due to their theme it is unlikely that you would see these figurines in a horror trailer therefore it would be unsuitable for them to be included in ours.
These dolls will be used for group shots or shots using silhouettes due to their pretty and friendly appearance. These dolls just appear to be too gentle looking and beautiful to be portrayed as scary.
