In order to gather inspiration for each characters props and costume, I created a board on Pinterest for the character Detective Giggs.

The character Detective Giggs is portrayed in the film trailer as a source of authority, 'voice of reason' and a member of establishment with legal advice and command over people like Aaron. She is recognisable as a member of the established MET police department by her eye-catching, reflective uniform with the crest and badges associated with the police on her jacket. This is also seen on her hat as well when in the accusation/custody room with Aaron. She is determined to find out what Aaron's motives were when he was selling illegal passports, and most importantly making sure he doesn't repeat his actions in the future solving his crimes and making the community he committed his crimes in safer for the public.

Detective Giggs' Costume - played by Sophie Bennett |
Using Pinterest not only for the character of Detective Giggs but also for the whole cast of my film trailer helped me gain a better idea of how each character would dress, act and what props they would use. I have a better idea of what kind of mood they would influence the film trailer, for example a mysterious, illusive, haunting and 'hidden' due to influence of an illegal trade such as trafficking refugees.
Pinterest is a useful as it allows me to collect a vast amount of photographs, GIFs and videos on a particular topic or person in culture and society; I can also follow other people on Pinterest gaining inspiration globally and connecting with people who may have 'pinned' the same photo(s).
HERE is a blog post on how I made GIFs - similar to the format of photos I find on Pinterest and due researching how to make GIFs I can make a GIF with videos and photographs I take whilst filming my film trailer or photographs I have come across on Pinterest; gaining more inspiration.
