Costumes

Tate-
Tate is the main character in our video, as he is the guy who we are trying to portray to the audience who doesn't want to be held down to one girl, as he is young and just wants to have fun. So for his costume we want him wearing smart 'indie' ware, we want him wearing this type of clothing because we want the costumes to also reflect the genre of song that the video is to, which is indie. By smart 'indie' wear we mean items of clothing such as tight black skinny jeans, with either a plain or chequered shirt with a type of jacket over the top, preferably a denim jacket, then for footwear we would like him to be wearing converse.

Lily-

Lilly is the character who plays the current girlfriend of Tate. The type of costume we would like Lilly to wear is either a dress or skirt with a blouse, we would also like these item's of clothing to always have either the colour red, yellow or green because these colours signify, danger, warning and envy. We would like her to be wearing these colours because of the way they are seen when people look at them, because they will hopefully instantly think that she is a dangerous person to go near to because she want's to be able to settle down, but Tate doesn't want this.

Jack-
Jack is going to be playing the part of the singer in our video, in our video we needed an element of performance because that's what is most commonly seen in 'Indie rock' music videos. The type of costume we wanted Jack to wear was simply either a black or white top because we didn't want him to come across as a main character, so we wanted him to just blend in and by him not wearing striking colours he wont stand out as much. However we would like him to have a bit of stubble because our audience is aimed at girls aged between 15-25, so by him having stubble they will instantly recognise him as the singer. Also with him having the stubble the viewers will instantly know that the video is for a 'Indie rock' video because this type of genre is most commonly known for looking rough and un-tidy. 

On the left there is an image of the two characters in our video, the type of clothing that they are wearing in this, is going to be similar to what they are going to wear in the video. 

We have chosen this type of clothing because to us it suits the type of clothing that we want them to be wearing.

For example the guy character is in skinny jeans, a hood and then converse, we have chosen this type of clothing style because it suits the genre of music 'indie'. 

Then for the girl character we have got her wearing a read skirt because we want that sense of danger and warning coming across and red is the colour in which symbolises this well.
