This catalogue entry records a 1971 Triumph Vitesse sports family convertible in blue, a convertible, from the 1970s.

1970s on screen

Domestic props give a seventies car a reason to be outside a house, whether the action is a return with shopping or the start of a journey. A parked row outside a workplace can supply a period backdrop for dialogue, but the vehicles nearest the camera should not be the only ones checked. A credible seventies street need not be filled with cars from the same year; an evidence-led mix of ages gives the background a less arranged feel.

Possible roles in a production

Hair, hats and loose costume details should be rehearsed for open-top action, especially when performers need to repeat the same look between camera angles. Entrances and exits deserve a rehearsal with the roof as it will appear on camera, so performer movement is planned around the actual arrangement. Roof-up and roof-down scenes create different images, so the roof position needs agreeing early and recording for continuity across the convertible sequence.
