Box Research

For our film opening, it is essential that we have a box to contain the photographs, letters and knife for our protagonist to dig up under the tree. As this is a key part of our plot, we thought that its very important to spend a lot of time deciding which box. In choosing which box to use, we had to main objectives that the box must meet: to look aesthetically right for the role and to be large enough to fit a knife in. These are the boxes we looked at:

1.

  

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

After extensively looking at each box and weighing out the pros and cons of each, we finally decided to use box number 5. This is because it matches both our objectives. Its aesthetically right as it looks like a box that a young child would own and put all of the evidence in. We, also, measured it to be 30cmX20cm so it will easily fit the chosen knife in.
It was difficult to choose a box because it we liked them all but number 2 and 6 were too childish and we didn't like the patterns on them. Number 3 didn't look like a box that a young child would own and it clearly had "the twilight saga" written on it, so it was obvious that this could not be used. Boxes 1 and 4 were too small to fit the knife in so we couldn't use them.
