Final decisions

Costumes
we have come to our final decisions about our costumes and we will use a costumes for the bullies to make them look evil such as having them wear dark clothing and colours such as wearing black hoodies to show they look intimidating and evil. Our main character Kallam will wear casual bright clothing at the beginning of the film to show binary opposition that he is the good guy who hasn't done anything wrong compared to the bullies who intimidate and violate him physically and verbally every single day for absolutely no reason at all.
During the course of the film Kallams clothing changes to becoming more rugged and bloodstained and darker in order to show the transformation of the character from good to evil and the bullies clothing will also become more practical over the course of the film and change from dark and get more light to show they seek forgiveness  from Kallam and that they realise what they have done is wrong.

Lighting
The lighting will be low-key whenever the bullies are in the scene to represent evil and darkness to show that bad things will happen whenever the bullies are around. When Kallam is around the lighting will be brighter and high-key in order to show that he is innocent and good and the audience will associate him with good things rather than evil. When Kallam is on the floor being beaten up by the bullies the lighting will be mostly low-key and shadowy on the bullies faces to show darkness and evil triumphing over good as Kallam is being beaten up but there will be a small ray of light shining on Kallams face to signalise that even in dark times, there is hope.

Props
Our film will have various props such as the unique mask which will be a clown mask with the top cut off to just show the sinister smile because his bullies used to laugh at him when he would cry due to their torments and the mask reflects that he is now having the last laugh and that he is uncapable of smiling due to severe depression he reflects how he feels through his mask. This mask will initimidate his bullies and they will change from laughing to fearful emotions. The place that the bullies will last terror him will be the park as that is the only place where Kallam can be at peace with himself but when the bullies bully him on the swings, Kallam accidentaly chokes to death on the swings chain and the park will then symbolise death rather than life. Kallams weapon will be a chain and a wire which he will use to strangle his bullies as they did to him to engage in perfect revenge.

Mise en scene
The locations our film will be set in will vary. Our films first setting will be in the classroom to show where the bullying first started and to show Kallams behaviour is that of a lonely person who doesn't speak much and tries to do as much work as he can and to show how he has no friends and that the rest of the class also laugh at him. Our second setting will be on the streets to show that he is further bullied outside the classroom and how it is a regular, day to day game for the bullies to make his life hell. It also shows the bullies disregard for his safety as they don't care if they push him into oncoming traffic or throw stones at him. We will also have a few shots of Kallam walking into and out of his house. Our main setting will be at the park, mainly on the swings and at first we will shoot Kallam on the swings on a sunny day to show that this is the one place where Kallam is most happy and for the first time Kallam is smiling and happy but then when the bullies find him at the swings they torment hima nd accidentally kill him with the swings chain and now the park is known for a dark reason than a happy one as the next shot will have the sky grey to signify that it is no longer Kallams happy place.
