Props research

After writing down what props we needed we researched where we could buy them easily and cheaply.
We had a new idea of having glossy black balloons floating in the white dance scene; as we want them floating we need them to be filled with helium. Luckily the media department have a helium tank so all we need to buy are the balloons, we found cheap ones on ebay:


A difficult prop we researched was a bath tub, these are very expensive and also big so a hassle to collect/delivered. We think the media department might still have a bath from last years media shoots so we will look more into this as if we could just borrow that one it would be a lot easier. In case we cant borrow one we have looked into buying one:


Another difficult prop to get it a chaise lounge which is also big and expensive; looking on eBay we found many different colours and styles:
 
However we found this one which we thought was perfect for what we wanted:
But sadly this one was collect only and we googled how far away it was and it would take over two hours to drive there and collect it and then the journey back, therefore we decided to rethink this prop if a chaise lounge proves too difficult.

An easier prop we researched was a mirror for the sofa/mirror scene. We looked at mirrors with light bulbs around them however these were all too expensive and therefore we decided to go for a more simple cheaper option and buy one from Ikea:

As this one is only £12 we thought we could buy four of them and make one big mirror to make it look more impressive.
