Costume for 2 min film


Being that Karly was the main character, we wanted her top half to stand out, so by doing this we made sure she was wearing black jeans, then above a grey blazer (to show sophistication), a patterned top (to show individualality), a green patterned scarf, and black hair.






We wanted her hair down so she came across as a relaxed person, and so when running it will look better. We can also see her rock/indy style from the nose peircing, and the green patterned scarf.










We also wanted her to stand out being the main so we did need her costume to be better than Dannii's as she is more of the leader out of the two friends.









As you can also see up close, from her badges we can tell that she is also quite an outgoing person who believes they have no limits.



Dannii

Being Karly's best friend, we didn't want her clothing to be as detailed, but we did want the same concept that the audience will focus on the top half due to her bright purple hoody.















Compared to Karly, Dannii has less make up than her this is so that her eyes stand out more. Also her hood is up, this is after many days of filming we were all getting cold and feeling rough so we let her have her hood up.














This purple hoody is simple but so colourful it will instantly draw the audiences attention to her facial reactions.











Her shoes are really the only sign that she is up to date with her fashion, and also we have made sure these have been seen in some running shots at times.











Simon
As we can see he is in all black, this is so he instantly becomes the villain, his hood is up so we can never see his face which creates more suspission. Because we had no where for the audience to focus we ended up placing the camera on parts of him to show the audience what we want them to see.







Un-like Sam or Karly, Simon has actually got gel and other products in his hair. This was so he stood out more as a Character.















This gold chain necklace creates a chav appearance more, and this shows that he maybe stronger than the rest of them.












Another association wth chav, is the Nike sign on his glove, we wanted him to wear gloves so it looks like he has been planning this for a while. Once again another gold chain.
















We needed his shoes to be chav as the rest of him is, but we also needed them to be comfortable whilst running, so we ended up using these.















Sam

For Sam we used an opposite concept, have the bottom have colourful as the audience will focus more on the running. He also has a indy look about him, just like his girlfriend.















Like Karly his hair has been left naturally curly which is the actors natural hair, this is so it creates an effect of atmosphere with the wind blowing directly at him so his hair will then push back, and this creates the speed he is going at which also creates panic and desparation when running.













The shirt maybe black but it has a star pattern on it which creates this indy look. Also the coat is creating a slight sophistication just like Karly.











Unfortunately the shoes dont match with the rest of the clothes but the actor needed to be comfortable whilst running, but on the up-side the blue stripes also draw attention to his lower half.
