Costume

On the right I've embedded a collage my group member Beth has created on the website Polyvore to denote what the main character Amy, in my groups final project will wear.

This outfit is meant to make the main character Amy look like a conventional teenager. For example she is wearing leggings, which is a very popular piece of clothing for all teenage girls. Also she's wearing a hooded body warmer, this item of clothing is similar to a hoodie. It can be noted that hoodies are stereotypically associated with teenagers and so, like a hoodie, the body warmer is a piece of iconography related to teenagers.

The all black outfit also helps create an eerie/tense mood for audiences. Our overall opening is going to have a dark colour scheme to connote danger, mystery and a scary story line. The chosen colour scheme also connotes that dark/bad things are going to occur in the next few scenes of the film.
