PROPS FOR FILMING

The props I'm planning on utilizing are a "ID TURN BACK IF IWERE YOU" sign and some fake squirrels. I will be purchasing these items on amazon and I will be adding little extra on them for some enhancement. These two props especially the sign will be the main focus in my project since everything else will either be a car or nature.

THE SIGN

For this sign I am planning on adding "mold" by using cornstarch and a drop of green dye. By doing this I will be able to adjust my mold an shape it into however I want and wherever I want. I will be putting the mold around the corners and for the paint I will carefully get a medal utensil and rub it against the paint to create a more spookier and vintage/ old affect. To have it up on the side of the rode I will be finding a random sign since there are a variety of signs and safely make sure no one is on the rode and then tape it over the original sign. I will put it up and take it off whenever is needed such as for when I film and I will also make sure that there are no cars whenever the sign is attached. 

THE SQUIRREL

Now the squirrel. The squirrel that I needed was just one but then  I came across the photo of the three squirrels which gave me an idea. I could use all three squirrels as one since they all have different positions. I could do replacement and editing to make it seem like its one squirrel moving. By doing this it will effect the look of the squirrel and make it look a bit more realistic than just using one that has the same position. I am planning by making it move by attaching a string to it and then have my brother pulling on it. I am still not 100% sure on this but this is one of my main thoughts for it.
