Costumes, related to the genre of horror
I chose this selection of costumes to include on my blog as I feel they relate well to my horror story. The antagonist in my film is a small girl so I have based my costume research around similar characters. From this research I have found out that the costume for this type of character is very minimalistic and simple. In some cases very typical outfits we would expect a little girl to wear act just as well as a simple oversizes white dress. I have decided from this costume research that my antagonist is going to wear a large oversized long t-shirt. The t-shirt is going to be slightly dirty and worn with white frilly socks which we would expect a little girl to wear.
In terms of hair styling I have chosen to have all of my antagonist characters hair down and messy, in a middle parting (similar to the middle left photograph above). I have chosen this as it can cover her face in some shots to make her look scary and I also think it looks the most effective.
I am not yet sure weather to use simplistic makeup or to make the girls eyes very dark to make her appear scary, I am going to decide this after I have done a photo shoot with my actress to see which looks most effective behind the lens.
In some scenes my antagonist is going to be seen with an old teddy bear, I feel this will be effective as it will make the audience see her as an innocent little girl when however she is the villan in my movie.
