Actors - For my opening there are only 2 characters in shot, a woman and a man. I imagine the woman is precise and neat, she likes everything a certain way and isn't aftraid to "get her hands dirty". I've cast my sister in that role, I thought it best to cast her as my location is far from where I live and I wouldn't be able to get my friends up to Yorkshire for a weeked, I also cast her as I feel she will take direction well from me and my vision will come across well with her as the actress.
Location - As I've said before I will be filming my opening in a kitchen in Yorkshire.
Props - There are quite a lot of different props that I need for my opening; a chopping board, a slab of meat, a cleaver, a cherry pie, a bunch of flowers, a photo album, newspaper clippings. I've got the chopping board and knife at home, I wanted to use a cleaver but we don't have one and it costs more than my budget. I will be buying a bunch of roses and a slab of meat. I will either make or buy the cherry pie, as I want a lattice pie so the cherries can overspill the top. I have a photo album that I can use and I can make my own newpaper clippings of missing men and print them off to make them look like real newpaper clippings.
Costume - As you only see the hands in the opening there isn't much costume needed, the woman will be wearing fake red nails. The man is wearing expensive clothes, he'll be wearing jeans and a blazer, so smart casual, he'll also have an expensive watch on.
