Costume research

For our costume we want to have and involve something that would be able to hook and relate to the audience. This seems as a pretty hard task to accomplish, but then we realized that all we had to do was take stuff from real life and portray them onto our film opening. For our first character, which was the protagonist of the film we had to think of what he was wearing. We decided that it would have to be quite mysterious clothing just so we didn't reveal to much to the audience. We did not find any examples of where this is found, this was plainly just our idea. For the other antagonist of out film we had to thing about how he would be shown in the opening. We initially made him a younger character, in his teen years. We then thought about relating our characters and costumes to the audience and thought to dress this character in the typical teenage clothing. This means that the audience might be able to relate to what he is wearing and the way he is. We looked at a film called "Friday the 13th". In this film they have typical teenagers that are the protagonists of the film. These are all teenagers that are stereo-typically dressed and are always in danger.

For the antagonist of our film we decided to look at the same film. In this film they use a mask and very dark clothing to disguise their character Jason. He also wears a hockey mask to cover his face and this hides his identity very well. I thought that this would look very good on our character but i decided that we would want to see his eyes so that they could look into the camera and the audience. We then looked at a range of other masks that would suit our needs and we found a few that looked like the one off "Friday the 13", but a little bit different.
