Costume Board

Our main characters have been given the choice of wearing jeans or tracksuit bottoms. We gave them these two options as both of them are stereo-typically known for being worn by teens. Don and Mani both chose to wear baggy jeans as they thought it would add to the theme of crime and gangster as they both thought that tracksuit bottoms, if not worn correctly can either look tacky or amateur.


Both of our main characters both went with the decision on Adidas trainers as they thought they had recently been seen as a teenager branded shoe. This adds to the authenticity of the film and can make it look more believable, especially if all the characters wear them because it could then be called a 'trend'.


Mani, when first introduced is wearing baggy jeans, Adidas trainers and a blue Sergio Tacchini hoodie. The hoodies play a major role in our film as we all know that teenagers are also stereo-typically known for being 'hoodlums'. When seeing a boy of 15-18 with a hood up walking when there is no weather issues you tend to think that he is trouble straight off.
Don, is also portrayed as being a so called 'hoodlum' with his baggy jeans, Adidas trainers, black hoodie and Red cap. All of the items of clothing we have used in the film we helped our actors specially choose to come together as being an authentic looking crime and gangster film. From doing this i learnt how big time directors and script writers make there films look more realistic and how they use Mise-en-scene to create a realistic,  good look.
