Costume and Make-Up Ideas.

Megan (Scarlet) -18

• White Vest Top
• Black Leggings
• Black Socks
• Black+White Checkered Dress
• Pale Pink Lipstick
• Dark Eye Shadow
• Eyeliner
• Mascara

At first we thought that it would be a good idea for Megan (Scarlet) to just wear her dress because she is obviously getting ready for the same party that the other 3 girls are going to. Another thought we had was that the fake blood would ruin her dress so we changed her costume idea to a vest top and leggings this was because she doesn’t wear the vest top often which means she could get rid of the top if she wanted to. The Black leggings are so that she is comfortable and if the blood gets on her legs then it wouldn’t show as much therefore wouldn’t ruin her leggings. The dress also indicates her personality as a gothic type of girl because it is the same style as the stereotyped gothic personality would normally wear. The make-up also makes her look less like she has life within her body which is what a gothic would normally wear which could also foreshadow that she is going to die quite early on during the film. However it emphasis the innocence because you can see in her eyes and her attitude and tastes that she is still young.

Chantelle (Eva) -20

• Black Laced Dress
• Burnt Orange Platforms
• Natural Lip Colour
• Brown Eye Shadow
• Mascara
• Fake Lashes

Chantelle (Eva) is the oldest of the group and therefore needs to look like she is able to control 3 other girls whilst having fun and looking nice for a party.

ANALYSE DRESS

The dress needed to be a zipped dress because the two scenes between Eva and Riley link by zipping up the back of the dress. The burnt orange platforms shows that she need to have a height advantage over the rest of the group. This could show Eva’s age, height and experience compared to the rest of the girls. Eva is the leader of the group and needs to be the most sensible person, and that is why she wears natural make-up, apart from the fake lashes. The fake lashes show that she is ready to go out and have a fun time with her girls.

Abigail (Riley) -19

• Cream + Black Dress
• Black Heeled Sandals
• Natural Foundation
• Pink Lipstick
• Eyeliner
• Mascara

The dress I am wearing plays into the hands of my character’s (Riley) girly personality because it is not too long and not revealing which shows she is just trying to have a good time with a group of friends rather than looking at anything else. High heels shoes are always used to represent a person who is going to a party even if they have different agenda’s or plans for the night out. Sandals are more of a girly thing to wear especially when at a party because it  portrays the image that she isn’t worried about people standing on her feet as she would more likely be sat down talking to her friends. My character wears natural make-up because she has a girly personality and wears minimal make-up as girly girls usually like the natural look.

Kimberley (Cassie) -17

• Leopard Print + Black Dress
• Leopard Print High Heels
• Natural Foundation
• Red Lip Liner
• Red Lipstick
• Eyeliner
• Mascara

Kimberley’s character (Cassie) has been labelled the ‘slut’ although she is the youngest of the group, however this could be the reason she dresses to impress in order to make her look like she is older and she belongs with the other girls. The leopard print part of the dress emphasis the chest area and brings peoples attention there, this could be her aim because she is going to a party and therefore must want more attention then others from the guys. As the dress is shorter at the front and long at the back makes her legs look longer and whilst Cassie is wearing heels it makes her look taller and indicates she might be to young to be at the party. Cassie is wearing natural foundation which would make her look slightly more tanned than usual and she puts a lot of effort into making her lips look more defined because of the lipstick and lip liner. The eyeliner and mascara would also help her to bring out the colour and brightness of her eyes.

Daniel (Killer)

• Black Hooded Jacket
• Jeans
• Trainers

The character Daniel is playing is the killer and we need him to be very mysterious and hidden. The reason he has to wear a black hooded jacket is because it is easier to hide in dark places which is helpful because it is during the night. A weakness of the costume ideas for the killer is that you are able to see that he is a male, which eliminates some of the mystery we tried to create. You can tell that the character is a male because of the way he is dressed as many males are not bothered with their looks. Jeans and trainers isn’t the best looking dress code for a female as they could be classed as ‘unnatural’ or ‘scruffy’ but if you were to ask a male what they thought, they are most likely to have a different comment.
