We're getting to the fun stuff! It's time to talk more in detail about what our characters are going to be looking like. Costuming and props are very important when introducing a character. Different costuming and props can say a lot about who that individual is and what is to come later on in the film.
Ben
Costuming: For Ben's costuming, he is going to be wearing a casual outfit. Either jeans and a t-shirt, or pants and a sweatshirt. The goal is to make him look like an ordinary, innocent guy.
Props: Ben's props consist of paper, a pen, and a bag.
Mr. Travers
Costuming: Mr. Travers is going to be wearing khaki pants with a buttoned top. The goal is to make him look like a detective, without doing the stereotypical detective costume (hat with coat).
Props: Mr. Travers is going to have a police/detective badge, a walkie talkie, and police-like items in his pocket or near him.

Crime scene investigators
Costuming: The CSIs costumes are going to consist of a white hazmat suit, a face mask, gloves, and maybe goggles.

Props: They are going to have white chalk to outline where the dead body was. There will be other props that the CSI are going to interact with, but they are more "setting props," rather than "character props."
