Costumes

Narrative

Victoria• This first costume will be used in the scene where Victoria

breaks up with Rhys. The look is casual and looks as though she hasn’t made an effort, this will represent her relationship with Rhys, in that it is a laid back relationship where no one makes an effort. The clothes will be different from her lip syncing look and the audience will be able to distinguish between the two. The clothes are a simple hoodie and jeans which our audience will be able to appeal to as it is a popular look.

• These next two looks show her new relationship with Marcello. Her look has changed to a nicer and smarter look with more effort having been made. This will show that her relationship with Marcello is more important to her and she makes more of an effort because of this. It also shows her clothes matching Marcello’s look as well. Again the clothing she is wearing will appeal to the audience we have chosen for our music video.

Rhys• Rhys is going to be dressed in a casual orange top, again

showing the basic laid back theme of their relationship. He will also be wearing a pair of jeans. This shows that they don’t make an effort to look nice when around each other, showing they have lost interest in the relationship. This shows that the two are young, as they are wearing clothing popular to the youthful audience we have chosen for our music video, and so this will appeal to them. This is the only costume we have for Rhys in the music video, as it is his only scene, and this will show the theme of their relationship ending, and the lack of effort in the relationship from the two.

Amy• Amy will have two different costumes. The first will be a white tank

top and burgundy trousers, and she will be wearing this in the scene where she is cheating on Marcello. The tank top will show her effort to impress Jamie, and make Marcello jealous as she is wearing clothing that would appeal to the male gender. This is a type of clothing that appeals to the youthful audience we have chosen for our music video. The burgundy trousers represent anger that Amy feels throughout the music video, firstly for her ending relationship with Marcello, then for when she sees that Marcello has moved on.

• Her second costume is the same burgundy trousers and tank top, but she will be wearing a leather jacket. She will be wearing this jacket when she sees that Marcello has moved on and is now in a relationship with Victoria. This will show that she doesn’t want to make Marcello jealous or attract Jamie with her clothing, she is now jealous of Marcello’s new relationship, and so the new jacket will show this.

Jamie

• Jamie will only have one costume as he is only in one scene. His costume will be a grey top and jean shorts. This is a popular look that appeals to our audience and people that age, and so shows the audience a theme of style from Jamie that would appeal to Amy’s character. His costume is different from Marcello’s, this will show the audience that Amy cheated as she is attracted to people different from Marcello.

Marcello• Marcello will have three costumes in the narrative. His first costume

will be black jeans, and a jumper. He will be wearing this when he sees Amy cheating on him. This is a smart look and will contrast with Amy’s casual, appealing look to show how different the two of them are, though both costumes appeal to our audience. This look will change when he is with Victoria, showing they have more in common and that he wants a change from Amy.

• The second look will be black jeans, a black t-shirt and a blue hoodie. He has changed to a more casual look now as he doesn’t feel the need to impress anymore now that he is not with Amy, and shows the audience that now he is with Victoria they have things in common and dress alike. His clothing is popular in that age and will appeal to our audience. It also shows the change from the two relationships. His third look is much like the second one, but with a green t-shirt and no hoodie. This will just again show the difference between his two relationships.

Performance

Victoria• We will have one costume for Victoria’s lip

syncing scenes. She will be wearing a white sleeveless top, with black leggings. The costume is popular and stylish, which will be good as it will appeal to the audience we have chosen for our music video. Also it is important to have the artist dressed in stylish and trendy outfits, as she is a recording artist, and recording artists like to make an effort to impress people and look nice, and to appeal to their viewers. The stylish outfit she is wearing will be different to the ones her character is wearing, which will show the audience that she is the artist of the music video.

Marcello• Marcello will also only have one costume for the

lip syncing scenes. He will be wearing a black t-shirt, black jeans and a grey blazer, again a casual yet smart and stylish style that is popular with the audience we have chosen. Also he is a recording artist and so will want to dress nice to impress people, and his style will appeal to his fans. His style will also be different from his character’s style to show that he is an artist, much like Victoria, and that his character is not an artist. The casual yet smart look we have chosen for Marcello will also appeal to the audience we have chosen for our music video, and we want our artists to look smart in the music video.
