Planning Journal- Costumes

Costume

Antagonist (Main character)

  • As a group decision we agreed upon the antagonist being presented as well-dressed and wearing eccentric, smart/casual clothing. However we thought that his costume should reflect his sinister personality and therefore decided he should be dark haired and be dressed in dark clothing. Preferably a black shirt with dark denim jeans. He will also be portrayed wearing neat and immaculate clothing as again this will convey his characters severe medical condition, OCD and reflect his character as fairly unusual and as a perfectionist. Furthermore we also thought that dark clothing is commonly worn by a antagonist within thriller movies and decided that it would be a good idea to include popular thriller based ideas. Another point to note is that the colour black has connotations of emptiness, therefore by the character wearing this coloured clothing  it implies that he mysterious doesn't reveal too much about his character to the audience. In addition our group has decided that the antagonist should wear a black watch, this is because , this prop will depict his mental obsession  and how the idea of time being a main point in the story.

The Victim ( minor Character)

  • Again as a group decision we agreed upon the victim being presented as a generic and innocent teenage girl who's wearing casual clothing. However we thought her costume should reflect her sweet and vulnerable personality, therefore we decided she should dress in a normal jumper or T-shirt with denim jeans. Furthermore, to add to her innocent appearance, the character should be blonde haired and blue eyed, as this look is associated with being angelic and attractive and therefore presents her as having little authority.
