Costume

The costume within our film opening was one factor, among a number, which added something to our film. Costume helped us to set the scene, for example, when the girl walks along the road before the shot zooms into the poster, she was wearing everyday, casual wear, as not to distract from what is being said in the voice over.
Other times when costume was needed to be considered, were at the points when Daisy was walking through the park, Daisy in the cellar and the news report. When Daisy was walking the dog in Gillingham Park, she wore a navy blue coat, jeans and boots. Here, one could say that she was representative of the average teenage girl by wearing said attire.
In addition, the news report scene was thought of on the day we filmed it so, the costume which was worn throughout the report, was not representative of a news reporter as the character was wearing informal clothes instead of formal. If we had been more organised and thought of the news report the day previous, the outfit would have consisted of a blazer with a smart, casual top and either smart jeans or work trousers, depending on whether the shot to be filmed would be a long distance shot or a close up shot.
Finally, we put much thought into what outfit a victim of a kidnapper may wear. Towards the end of our thought process  we decided upon a black vest top and black tracksuit bottoms. This was due to the reasons that the black outfit would add to the atmosphere and her emotions. Furthermore, the outfit was plain black as to not distract from Daisy's reactions to her kidnapper entering the cellar and shouting at her in an aggressive manner. In average, all of the costumes worn within the filming were representing the younger generation and how teenagers choose to express themselves.

        

These outfits are along the lines my group and I were thinking of, in retrospect if we had more time.
