Fixing A Problem

A prop within my main task production is an Ouija Board, I had ordered one from amazon after seeing if anyone had one I could borrow but sadly they didn't. Now here comes the problem, the Ouija Board didn't show up on the delivery date and then continued not to be delivered for the day of filming, today. So I had to work around the issue but trying to use something that resembled one, for this I used a large, wooden, black clapperboard and used it for close up shots mainly, my thought process was that the majority of people know what an Ouija Board looks like and seeming as both the clapperboard and the ouija board have the similarity in looks I thought it would help tp resemble/represent one.

Looking back at the shots I filmed today I'm happy to find that my plan slightly worked, there are some where it doesn't work aswell but some can be used. This means I have to stray slightly away from my inital plans and storyboard for this certain scene however, it doesn't effect much of anything else so thankfully crisis solved!
