Props we need to include for our film include the following :

Facial expressions and body language

Zoe:
  • smiling broadly in a way which the audience will percept as frightening
  • intense avid gaze which stares at the screen scarily
  • teeth bared to evoke barbarity
  • upright body posture to demonstrate her dominance over the subordinates
  • confident walk to again establish her superiority
  • Light, dainty movements to imply cunning
Me:
  • Widening of eyes, capturing intensity of gaze
  • blank expression otherwise to contrast against the avidity of the eyes
  • hunched over
  • shrouded by darkness so her appearance is vague
Ana:
  • widening of the eyes to  demonstrate shock and horror
  • slow smile when i become possessed
  • trembling when i get chased to express my characters vulnerability and inferiority
  • jerky jagged movements which are non-synchronized
