Costume planning



We chose our character to wear this costume as she in sixth form therefore she had to wear smart clothing however not to formal as it may alienate the audience as they are less likely to relate to the character as they unlikely to wear formal clothing like an adult so it had to be something that the audience can relate to. As we are challenging the convention that blonde girls are presented as sexually orientated we picked modest clothing to signify that our character is going against this horror convention. We were inspired by 'Sidney' from 'Scream' as she is presented as a smart and respected character through her costume as when she was wearing appropriate clothing she was able to escape from the killer and the audience can also connect with her as they can imagine themselves in the same position by having a relatable character, we wanted to create this same effect.
