Costume
During the fight scene the bad cop would be wearing mostly black clothes. The costume would show that he is not a good character and may even be thuggish. He would wear a leather jacket and gloves. From this it is clear that he is the bad guy. When he arrives at the house later on the costume will have changed. He would wear a dark suit with a formal shirt but no tie. He would not wear a tie as although he is there on official police business he is also there to console a friend and would therefore not be overly formal. He would also wear a black work to make him seem slightly ominous to the audience.
An example of the sort of work coat the bad cop may wear.
The good cop’s costume would be casual as he is attacked in his home. The costume would consist of jeans, a t-shirt with a jumper on top. This costume makes him seem innocent and non aggressive. The jumper would be a dark colour as a bright one may compromise the grit of the film, as well as the fact that he turns out not be completely benevolent when he gets his revenge later in the film.

The girlfriend of the good cop would be dressed in semi-formal work clothes as she is returning from work. Again her clothes would make her look fairly innocent without ruining the gritty tone yet they make her look benign enough that it is shocking when she goes after he boyfriend’s kidnapper
Something similar to what the girlfriend may wear.

Costume is an important part of the film but also consider hair and make-up. How do they reflect your character. What about props?
ReplyDeleteThen look at mise-en-scene - there's no analysis or photos of your locations uploaded here?
You need to explain why you're filming where you're filming - how do the locations suit the mood/tone/character?
There's also no shot list or storyboard - I've just e-mailed you the storyboard again. You need to upload it and write about how it was useful (or not) in preparing you for filming.
No analysis of the soundtrack you've chosen.
No analysis of films from similar genres - upload stills and explain how you're borrowing ideas. You should have written bulletpoints about different films you've watched - where are they?
