Things we needed on shoot day

Costume:

Poker players- dark suits. Slicked hair. ties.
Waiter- waistcoat. White shirt. Overall.
Toyboy- open shirt. Light suit trousers. grey jumper
Niki- Fur coat. red dress. Heels, diamond jewellery. red nails.
Guy- leather jacket. Black shirt. Black shiny shoes. black gloves.

Reason for costume choice:

We wanted them all to wear dark suits and ties, to make them look like serious rich gangtsers. Similar to the movies with the mafia. We wanted them in dark to make Niki playing the only female character to stand out. The dress was to symbolise her sexuality and dominance over the boys. She looked like a typical sex symbol young woman, with a differance that she was younger

On the day itself, we were well prepared and we had given ourselves time to set up the poker set. We set up all the chips and cards on the green felt that was placed on the table. We then made money, by printing out a picture of a 50£ note then cutting it out. Then cutting up chunks of paper that was the same size to place underneath, then putting an elastic band around it, to look like a wod of money.

Then we got the bottles and glasses out, filling the bottles with water for vodka and lime cordial for whiskey. We then cut up sliced of lemon and made the drinks. We also wanted to have stubs of cigarettes in the ashtray, so we went and found some outside.

The bottles we used were old whisky and vodka bottles that we decanted to fill with soft drink.

We had one problem on set, where there wasn't enough space for a bar, so we put a small table in the corner with a black cloth on the top. On this we placed some extra glasses we had and the bottles.
