Planning Artists Image
The costume to be worn by our artist has to represent the genre we are aiming for our target audience. Therefore has to wear clothing that applies to this genre. Clothes to be typically seen on an artist in the alternative pop genre would be a pair of vans, chino trousers, a shirt possibly with a coat and raybans. Clothes that will be worn won't be bright or in your face, just simple to connote the originality of the artist.
Our artist will wear a red jumper. The colour red has connotations of love, hate and anger. These are all emotions that the artist could possibly be feeling. The colour red will leave the audience to decide how they think the artist is feeling. The jumper will be worn over a plain t-shirt. The artist will be wearing skinny jeans or chino's because this tight type of trousers originated from the alternative genre then became more populated.
Like the red jumper, by wearing red vans it has connotations of love, hate and anger. Again vans is an item of clothing that first originated from the alternative genre and become popular however both items first come from the alternative genre therefore still applies.
In some shots as a group we may allow the artist to wear kharki or light green blazers. The colour green has connotations with nature and that is where the artist will be spending most of his time outside, with shots of him thinking, and reminiscing.
This post demonstrates show understanding of conventions and this is because you have considered typical costumes that the audience would expect to see. How do the costumes and locations work together?
