Costume and make-up research

Costume research 

When it came to deciding upon the costume of our actor we decided to have her wearing dark/casual clothes to be representative of her emotion/mood throughout the music video. As she will only be walking around different places and not going out to a party we thought that keeping it casual with black ripped jeans, a hoodie/jumper and trainers was the best option.

Below is images of what we want our actor to be wearing when we are filming our music video.

 By having Phoebe wear black ripped jeans we thought this would help to portray the representation we are trying to create throughout our music video. The colour black typically has negative connotations associate with mystery, as well as being associated with fear and the unknown.  By Phoebe wearing jeans that are ripped we think that this typically conveys a 'rebellious' look.

We would want Phoebe to be wearing a oversized jumper or a hoodie, as we are portraying a very casual look pf our character. I think that oversized jumpers or a hoodie shows clearly a casual look and could also represent her emotion well too. As the season when we will be filming will be Autumn/Winter we as a group also think that a warm casual look will work well.

We want Phoebe to wear a necklace from her ex-boyfriend. We want to show this necklace as a significance which was given to her from her ex-boyfriend. We will film Phoebe holding and playing around with her necklace when the lyrics are 'bad habits' when we are showing Phoebe with alcohol bottles, the necklace is significant of her bad habit which was her ex-boyfriend. We want this to be obvious to the audience when they are watching the music video, therefore we will make sure that the necklace is shown clearly when we are filming. The necklace is representative of her 'bad habit' which was her boyfriend.

Make-up research

As a group we have decided that Phoebe should have quite a lot of make-up on while filming for our music video.  We decided that if she is wearing a lot of make-up such as; dark mascara to reinforce her emotion after breaking up with her boyfriend. Eyeshadow above her eyes and highlighter too.
