Costume Research 1

For our trailer. We need to think about our muse en scene and what would be the most appropriate clothing and styling for both our protagonists and antagonist.

As the antagonist and also in humane character of our trailer our clown character stands as the most important costume styling we have to consider. Our actress Katy will be playing th role of the clown and in doing so instead of creating a clown makeup look we have decided a more effective and frightening approach would be to use a mask and therefore have purchased the following mask...

The pale white face, in contrast to the bright red hair,nose and lips shows that the character being as important as it is will definitely stand out perfectly whilst wearing this. 

We were considering to use an entire clown outfit even considering to purchase a full checkered black and white bodysuit to give off the impression of a once professional clown. But we believed for an outfit like this it would of had to of been a slightly different story line. But with what was occurring in the media we believed it would be a good idea to work with what was scaring people in everyday life, and with the clown scared happening across America and some areas of England. We though the best idea was to use a psychotic looking individual who wore normal everyday clothes but still fit to the character, so we used plain black jeans, a black hoodie and black trainers. We believe this would be worn as the clown would want to remain as inconspicuous as possible.
