Post 11 - Costume and Makeup

 Aaron's Costume

- He is a teenage boy on his gap year so his clothes are casual and typical for his age 

- He is only a year older than I am so I can use clothes already in my wardrobe 

- He will wear a hoodie and jeans throughout the entire film. The hoodie is symbolic of how he is more reserved and introverted, wanting to hide away in his hood and baggy clothes

- In the flashback the hoodie will be yellow in order to show how his life was brighter when Leo was alive and having fun with him

- In the opening scene he will be wearing a red hoodie to match the blood and the anger he feels

- For the rest of the film he will be wearing a black hoodie as he is filled with guilt and regret 

Leo's Costume 

- He is also a teenage boy and so his clothing is similar to Aaron's 

- His colours would be more neutral so a blue or grey as he is innocent in this 

Makeup 

- I would use black eyeshadow under Aaron's eyes to demonstrate how tired he is as he's been losing sleep over what he did

- I'm using a fake blood mixture made of cocoa powder and red food colouring to make fake blood to splatter over Aaron's face and coat his hands

The Ellington Kid

Narrative Equilibrium – Two boys are sitting in a café, one has a burger, the other just has chips. Disruption – One boy notices that the other has a burger and begins to tell him the story. Recognition – The boy realises that the other is implying that the boy who got stabbed the other day is in the burger. Attempts to Repair – He spits the burger out. New Equilibrium – He tells him it was just a joke, but the camera pans to a worker who is sharpening knives and has a smirk on his face, leaving the audience to decide for themselves if it was true or not.  The boy who was stabbed is the princess as he is the one who needs saving. The villains are the boys who stab him and come to finish him off. It may seem like the café workers are the heroes at first, but it turns out that they may also be the villains as well.  Lighting The café needs to be lit as that is the reason the boy goes in, as he knows there...

Meaning Project

Image
For this task we were given a piece of paper with a meaning that we had to create in a short film through mise-en-scene. Our meaning was, "someone receives a message that wasn't meant for them", so we decided to do a boyfriend that was getting messages from another girl. Unfortunately I was not given all the clips that were filmed so had to work with what I had.  This is the sequence I produced:
