Artist Styling/Costume Planning

For my music video, there is no set dress code for my models to abide by, however there is a certain theme that I wanted each of them to follow.

For my male character, due to the narrative nature of my music video, with him being a conventional 'uncaring' male, I want him to have quite a rough and equally uncaring look. I will request that my model wears a hoodie and tracksuit bottoms while in his house, switching to a pair of rough jeans when he goes out to meet the female character. I will do this because this will represent the attitude I want the audience to have towards the male character. This also represents the opposites theme that I will include throughout  my music videos production, with the completely differing attitudes of my two characters.

For my female character, I plan to have a completely different attitude towards the meeting, and as a result, her dress code will be more important to her. My selection of using quick cuts between the male character and the female character as she tries on different outfits will mean I will need quite a large selection of outfits for her to wear. I will leave this up to my female performer however, as it isn't very important what she wears as long as it's more formal and highlights her want to look nice when she goes to meet the male character.

I will complete another post once I have completed shooting my music video to highlight the dress code that we finalised on.
