In my music video, there are no 'outgoing' costumes as the conventions of the romance genre aim more towards feelings of reality in creating a realistic romance between two characters in a heterosexual relationship. I want the music video to feel authentic as possible in what seems to be the warm filtered 'functional relationship' and authentic feelings of grief in a cold filter as it needs to be easy for my target audience to understand. At times in the music video, I aim to use colours in order to connote different feelings for the two characters when theres a change of tone in the trailer eg, black and grey clothing when its sadder.
The male character will predominantly wear casual clothing during the trailer to denote a feeling of reality. This will consist of black skinny jeans and sweatshirts to relate to my target audience and appear like the right age.
During different points of the music video the female character will be wearing a variety of different outfits. At the moment when the female protagonist is going outside to fly the kite she will be wearing warm clothing eg, coat, hat and scarf. This is due to this element of the video being filmed outside and it is practical for the actors to dress this way rather than connotations. Furthermore I will be filming in the colder times of November/December and therefore it would be safe and sensible for the actors to dress appropriately. This decision will also be shown in my risk assessment to make sure than my actors are safe and healthy during filming.
In the indoor locations at times after her relationship the actress will be in costume to represent a 'slump' suggesting a stagnant nature to her life and no motivation to move forward. This will include clothing items such as leggings, joggers, baggy jumpers or t-shirts with no make-up or hair styling. This will show the actress in a raw and sensitive nature making the video more personal and unifying the experiences with the audience and allowing a genuine connection between the audience and the actress. This will massively juxtapose how she is in the relationship, even if they are sat on the sofa eating pizza etc. During these times my character will have a healthy glow in the make-up and more structured outfits that are still casual eg, jeans.
