Overall I feel we are very on target for our Pitch next week when it comes to the props & set build as we only have a couple of items to define & secure. We have been very lucky to receive most of the items for free which makes us very under budget which allows us to spend more money on other areas of the shoot such as the fashion. I have numbered the props in our set which will correspond to a floor plan we draw which will allow us to see where everything will fit within the space.
