Colours Used

In a boxing film , the often colours used are normally from light to dark. so if it was outside it will be lots of light colours , but inside in the ring the colours will be mostly dark and only a bit of colour from what they maybe wearing. alternatives have been used as they switch to black and white for a knock out.

Props

A lot of props will be used to make the film more realistic. some of the props that are used i fighting sports films are ; boxing rings or arena , crowds , ref , boxing gloves and rest of the outfit . to make the film more realistic the film would have sponsorships as they do in real life to give that sense of authenticity.

Edits

Lots of fast cut edits , slow motion to show a knock out also from different angles as a continued shot and edits when a fight was to make a entrance.

Fight scene entrance : robe on , shorts , gloves , shoes , title belt and head guard if needed.
