Costume Ideas

After deliberating and brainstorming ideas around a concept for our music videos, we realised that one particular theme was preferable from all of the group. This theme consisted of dressing up in costumes. We then had to decide what kind of costume to use in our production.

The costume had to work in the concept and also entertain the target audience. An idea for a costume that kept cropping up was fruit costumes. With fruit costumes we thought we could make interesting links between visuals and music as well as links between visuals and lyrics.





From these videos you can see the sort of costumes we are interested in using. By using these costumes I think we can create a really interesting visual style when mixed with some guerrilla filming techniques. We could also use the costumes to produce a great concept based video when used with post production techniques and clever camera work.

Please leave us some comments to let use know what you think of the costumes.

Many thanks

Oli

  2. Our friend as a banana outfit that we can borrow from him. As for the other three outfits... If we don't have an contacts which we can borrow from, we will buy them from ebay or a shop and once we have finished filming we will sell them on again.
