COSTUMES By Jamie Tilsley

In our film opening, there will be around six characters: five victims and a killer. It is important in our film that the characters dress appropriately to make the film have the greatest effect on the audience and give the film an authentic feel.

VictimsAll the victims in our film opening will be

wearing their everyday clothes: hoodies, jumpers, jeans, etc. The effect this has is that having them in clothes they normally wear indicates that they are regular people. This makes them relatable to the audience and they think the killer could kill anyone.

The Killer The killer in our film opening is portrayed as

an obsessive, partially insane character. We have decided to have his costume as a shirt, tie and smart trousers. The effect this gives is that the killers clothes being smart outline his obsessive personality as he cares about his appearance. It also says to the audience that even smart looking people or people you least expect are capable of being a serial killer, sort of like American Psycho.
