Pros And Cons Of Making Our 'Gangster' Trailer

Pros
- Costumes are day to day clothes; smart/casual wear with trench coats, or other long coats - these are easily found in the wardrobe of the average male therefore there is no need to purchase new costumes.
- Locations are not hard to find - backstreet locations, London is an ideal location.
- None or small amounts of special affects needed as British Gangster films are created in realist style.
- Characters would include average looking middle-aged men, aged 30-45 years old – this is a pro as normal or little known actors would be used to play the characters due to the realistic style.

Cons
- Weapons such as guns are widely used in this genre - convincing replicas are hard to source, and are not permitted to bed used in open public.
- The location could have proved difficult, as our film is based around flash cars, speed boats and harbours. Fortunately we have a member of the group who has access to these props.
