Costume Research

COSTUME RESEARCH ************

In this area of production, I will look at the various costume ideas that will be worn by our actors. As the film has been slightly modernise to be featured in the 2000's, costume will differ from that of the original short film. There will be 4 characters in total; 2 Detectives, Mr Maloney and Mrs Maloney.
Detectives: The detectives will be dressed in a very similar way and off a professional manner. A blazer will be featured along with a shirt, a tie and formal shoes and clothes. This is a typical clothing choice of a detective in modern day life.

Mr. Maloney: From research into various codes and conventions of other shorts of this genre, I found that it would be most effective if Patricks clothing was relaxed and informal. Slippers will be needed along with a scarf and a cardigan to portray him as innocent in the film.

Mrs. Maloney: It is important that Mrs Maloney is dressed appropriately and in a formal manner to contradict Patricks clothing choice. Dark colours such as black will be used in the blazer and skirt aspect of her costume. A blouse, tights and formal shoes will also be used to complete her profile.
