Props

We needed to look like mad professors working in a laboratory, so in order for our audience to establish the setting in our advert, props were vital. We needed test tubes, Bunsen burners, goggles, clamps etc. to create the ideal mise-en-sen, luckily we didn’t have to spend much money and we were fortunate enough to borrow the props from our schools science department.

We also needed a Hessian sack and for it to appear like it was full of coffee beans, but instead of filling it up, we put a stool in the sack and a tray on top and simply poured coffee beans on the tray. When the tray was completely covered ad the sides of the bag were rolled up, it appeared like the bag was full of coffee beans.
