Costumes.

Each of our three characters has two different costumes: one for the scene where they meet and another for the one where Lily is rescued from Ebony.



Nicole's costumes
Throughout both scenes, Nicole is represented as being very girly and stylish. To represent this, we've deliberately chosen to display her in two very different costumes in both scenes to demonstrate her diverse wardrobe. To make her outfits look girly, we have chosen for her to wear shorts and skirts in both scenes and for her to be wearing a frilly pink shirt in the scene where the girls meet.
Nicole's appearance
For the girly image to run throughout Nicole's character, we have decided that she will have long, flowing brown hair, will wear eye make up that accentuates her eyes and a selection of pink and red lipsticks; these characteristics will make her look high maintenance and girly and so represent her how we want our audience to perceive her.




Lily's costumes
We want Lily to look innocent and vulnerable throughout both scenes, so we have decided that she will wear light, pastel and flowery patterned clothes with light, floaty cardigans. Within the scene where she first meets Ebony and Nicole, she will be wearing a flowery dress to connote her purity, and within the scene where she is captive, she will be wearing a white, floaty dress that will contrast with the dark, dingy atmosphere of our chosen location to once again make her purity and innocence stand out within the film.
Lily's appearance
For the innocent image to run throughout Lily's character, we have decided that her make up will be minimalistic with her only wearing mascara, and her hair will be down and in loose, natural curls so that she looks very low maintenance and natural to again represent that she is pure.



Ebony's costumes
Throughout both scenes, we want Ebony to look very dark, mysterious and different. To achieve this, we have chosen to dress her in two very different outfits in both scenes, yet we've chosen for her to be wearing the same leather jacket so it represents her dark personality throughout the film. Within the scene where Ebony is killed, she will be wearing black shorts and a skull t-shirt which will make her look dark and mysterious, and within the scene where she meets Lily, she will be wearing a red skirt that will connote evil and represent the events that will unfold around Ebony throughout the rest of the film.
Ebony's appearance
We want the darkness and mystery to run throughout Ebony's character, so we've decided that she will wear very pale face make up and very dark eye make up that will contrast and make her eyes stand out as they're a main focus within our two minute opening sequence. Her hair will also be very big and back-combed to make it look messy so that she will stand out from a crowd as an individual, and so make it obvious to the audience that her personality differs from the people's around her.
