Planning

Actor Research:

• Skinhead -

• Ryan Burns
• For our movie we decided to use Ryan for the main character as the skinhead would have to act moody and rebellious and we thought this would suit Ryan rather than Rudi or I.
• Wearing typical skinhead clothing:
• Polo-shirt (Fred Perry or Ben Sherman)
• Harrington or bomber jackets 
• Jeans (Denim)
• Dr. Martens
• Suspenders
• Should have a shaved head but is going to wear a hat and shave the sides instead.
• Ryan should act on edge and quite aggressive.

• Skinhead's friend -
• Ryan's friend (Rudi)
• Wearing typical, casual clothing for a teen boy:
• T-Shirt
• Jeans
• Jacket
• Trainers
• Should act relaxed and organised when waiting for Ryan to show up.
• School kid extras (possible) -
• Normal clothes.
• General chat with each other.
• Brothers (possible)-
• The twin brothers will be wearing similar clothing. 
• A jumper
• Jeans
• Trainers
• Should have similar hairstyles(tidy)
• The brothers should act suspicious and slightly scared as they will be trying to light a cigarette and not want anyone to see.
• The brothers will glance at Ryan as he walks past the first time but will stare at him as he walks past the second time in his regular, skinhead clothes.
• They should act and confused to why he isn't wearing his uniform and why he is walking away from the bus stop.

Costume Research

We have:

• Polo-shirt

A polo-shirt would have been a typical top to wear for skinheads. Skinheads from the 70's, right up to modern day skinheads wear polos.

We have a black Fred Perry polo shirt for our actor to wear in our movie.

• Bomber jacket

Bomber jackets are a common choice for skinheads. 

We have acquired a khaki green bomber jacket for our actor to wear in our movie.

• Jeans

Skinheads usually wear bleached jeans. Because of this, we have bleached some of our own jeans and will use them for our movie.

• Dr. Martens

The typical skinhead shoe is the Dr. Marten. This is why we have decided to use these in our film.

Location Research -

For our movie, we have decided to film it all in Crumlin. We have picked Crumlin as it has all the components we need and it is close-by to all our homes. Crumlin has a housing estate, a forest, a main street (with a bus stop) and quiet roads.

 

This is the council estate in Crumlin that we chose for our movie. This estate shows the council houses along with the countryside. The council estate hints that the skinhead may not be as privileged as the other kids, reinforcing the idea of being difference.
The main street is a typical main street and this would create a sense of relation with the viewer. The 

We will film the scene of Ryan getting changed out of his uniform and into normal skinhead clothes in Crumlin Glen. 

Setting Research -

Our movie will be set in the modern day (2016). This will make it more relatable for the audience. It will be set in Crumlin, where it is filmed. Each scenario in the movie will be filmed to be as realistic as possible. This is helped by the fact it is filmed and set in the same place.

Props Research -

For our movie we didn't need many props. In one scene we used a car. This car was already owned by me so it was no trouble using it for the movie. We also used a bag to make the actor look more relatable.
