Although we have bought the majority of the props we need for our sheet week, there were still a few things we needed to buy and create. Before buying any more props, we decided to start making 'The Last Dish' t-shirts.
We had already previously bought the t-shirts and the specific transfer paper we needed to be able to print the logo onto the t-shirts, so all we had to do was print and iron. I found 'The Last Dish' logo on my computer and placed it onto PowerPoint, it was there that I adjusted the size of it.
We knew we wanted the logo on the back of the t-shirts but trying to judge the size was quite difficult as we didn't know if, when it was printed, it would be too small or too big.
Myself and Nisserin finally decided on a size, placed it in the centre of the page and printed three out. We had a lot of transfer papers so if it went wrong we would have some back up.
When they were all printed we cut out the individual logos and started ironing the logo onto the black t-shirts for our 'The Last Dish' crew members.
Here is the final outcome:
We are all really happy with how they have turned out, and we think the colour was the best option as the logo will stand out in the shots of the crew during scene 17. I think this prop will be really effective when showing off 'The Last Dish' and it will be a nice touch within the show.
Another prop that is going to be really effective if done right is the Betty Box. Myself and Nisserin went out to buy some cheap props that we could turn into Betty merchandise, which will act as presents she has given to Dean over time. We found a box that was the perfect size, and a bunch of different props that we could recreate and adjust as needed. We then took them to the studios and printed off the right amount of Betty and Dean heads we needed to make it look as if Betty has glued them on herself.
Within the Betty Box we have a canvas of Betty that she has supposedly painted herself and a canvas of an elephant picture that says 'I Love You' which she has also supposedly painted. We also have a photo album with a picture of Betty and Dean, and if you were to look inside it has some really cheesy pick up lines in it. There is a photo frame decorated with sequins, with a picture of Betty that she has again supposedly drawn. We also have a heart shaped mug, a game and a DVD.
We wanted to make this box fairly humorous to keep the comedy theme all the way through the show, so we changed the images on both the game and the DVD.
The game we bought is 'Who Is It?' and we printed and glued a hefty amount of Betty pictures onto each face you could see on the box. The DVD we bought is 'Dear John', but we changed the title to say 'Dear Dean' and printed out pictures of Dean and Betty to stick onto the two main characters heads on the cover.
I think all of these props are very funny, and will seem funny when seen on the show. The Betty Box is very effective humorous and the props inside definitely seem like something Betty would make and give to Dean.
Overall, I'm really pleased with the outcome of all of these props and I think they will both be very effective when keeping the comedy high within the show, and clearly showing the cooking show that Jordan Hamsay presents.
