Cast Costumes

During todays lesson we had to think about what our characters were going to wear to establish the different time periods within the video, and the difference between the reality and her daydreams.
The outfits that they would wear are representative of the indie genre, and these would be used by the target audience to identify the characters with the main codes and conventions of the indie genre. In addition we wanted to portray a more retro vibe within the music video, with some intertextual references of 'Grease' the film. This retro vibe would be shown through the use of the image of the record player and in addition the costumes which the characters will be wearing.
The main characters within the narrative of the music video Jake and Zoe, were the two we set out their costumes.
ZOE:
- modern day outfit- high waisted shorts, grungy shirt, docs, hair down, wearing glasses - Grease fashion (intertextual reference)- wetlook leggings, tucked in top, no glasses, hair up in messy ponytail -school scene- school uniform, skirt, shirt and tie
JAKE:
- modern day- jeans, top, hoodie, converse -Grease fashion (intertextual reference)- black skinny jeans, white top, leather jacket, hair jelled back -school scene- school uniform, shirt, trousers, tie
