Costume Design



This slideshow represents my inital, most significant costume design ideas for the character Nancy. They show images of the deisgns in process and also the finished product annotated. These will be used by the product design team to generate the desired style and look I want to portray to my audience within certain sections of the film. I believe these are helpful to produce early on as this helps gives me a better insight to the story and the anticipated impression I want to give off.

Here are the images published separately so that you are able to view them for the amount of time you want:

A Matter Of Life And Death

In my opening scene me and my group wanted to use archive footage however this would be copyright and plagiarism so we instead looked into other ways of getting across the idea we wanted to portray in a way we would have the ability to do so considering the equipment and time we have to prepare our opening scene. From looking at this scene in 'A Matter Of Life And Death' we thought that we would be able to construct our own radio scene within our opening scene by using the video above as a foundation.


We came up with the idea of having no conversation in the opening scene but showing a commanding officer driving to the character, Nancy's house and delivering the news, we thought that we could have the recorded radio of her husband trying to contact the control office over the top so that we hadn't actually explained the situation to the audience but it would instead be obvious to them as to what was going on. We thought this might be quite captivating and enticing for the audience as they would be watching in order to work out what was going on within the film and as you don't often see this being done.

Influences

I was influenced by many quotes which I had often heard on TV, and in general, and seen printed on pictures which you could find online. Here I have posted some of the images containing love and romance quotes:

Some of these quotes may seem cheesy but in different ways influenced my choice into doing a romantic and emotional film and also the story line which my film was to be based upon.
