Victim's Costume.
We decided that our victim would be wearing modern style clothing so that our target audience would be able to connect with the character and also since the genre of psychological horror, which is what our film opening is labelled as, is a fairly new genre it also conforms to the conventions of a psychological horror film.
Our victim would be wearing a fairly long coat, dark jeans/trousers and low ankle boots. It is a simple costume but also ties into our film opening by being modern and also for the actor to be wearing this type of clothing as our killer is obsessed with youth and beauty so it would make sense for us to use modern style clothing instead of an older look.
Killer's Costume.
For our killer we decided that we didn't want their identity to be known to the audience so that it would keep a sense of mystery behind the character and what is going on in their mind. In this case we decided that dark clothing that wouldn't be identified with either a male or female actor would be the best for our killer.
We opted for a black hoody/coat, black jeans and dark plimsoll shoes as all of these items could be associated with either male or female. The hoody/coat that we used was also quite big as then the character's figure couldn't be identified by the audience of a specific gender so our killer would still be in a sense of mystery.
