Costumes Brief

I have divided up the costumes for the Performance and Narrative sections of my Music Video. 

PERFORMANCE
  • I am intending for my video to depict a very british urban look, because of the Britpop genre the song stems from and the associations that can be made between weather and the editing.
  • I will be dressing my 3 actors in denim jackets, subtle t-shirts/v-necks and black/dark skinny jeans; typically rock-n-roll.

Demonstrated here by Joe Hicks of British rock band 'Francesqa'



NARRATIVE

  • During the performance sections of the video (shot in a music practise room/shed), I want to adopt a similar look using shirts.
  • Whilst Viva Brother are renowned for performing in flamboyant shirts, I am going to dress my actors in vintage/modern shirts which british rock bands tend to perform in. As the video is being shot purely as a 'rehearsal' rather than a live performance including a crowd, the costumes will adopt perhaps a more informal look. 
Some examples:

British rock band 'The Xcerts'




British rock band 'Deaf Havana'
