Research and Planning: Costume List

Male Protagonist Character
Our main male character will be wearing very casual clothing just a t-shirt and jeans with maybe trainers or boots. But he will still look fashionable.



Current Girlfriend


Our current girlfriend will be very fashion conscious, wearing all the designer labels and always trying to look her best.


Ex Girlfriend

Our ex girlfriend will wear very casual clothes, perhaps a t-shirt and jeans. She isn't to bothered about fashion but still always looks good without trying.

Dad

Our Dad character is not someone who cares for fashion. He will wear very simple, basic clothing. Trousers and a plain top or t-shirt.

Mum

Very basic clothing again, but still looks fashionable. Probably a Cardigan/other knitwear with a plain tee underneath and some loose jeans.

Research and Planning: Meeting 2

In are meeting we:
  • Spoke with two of our friends who have agreed to be actors in our trailer. Megan Ormiston is going to be playing the role of the 'ex girlfriend' and Chris Holtie will be playing the role of the male protagonist.
  • We have found a possible location for the parents' house.
  • We have found possible actors for the rest of the characters to play the roles of Mum, Dad and current girlfriend. Tracey Woodcock, Andrew Woodcock and Aby Woodcock.
  • We have decided that our production company name is 'Picture House' and our distribution company name will be 'Lights Out'.

What we need to:
  • Write first draft of a script.
  • Set up another meeting with all of our actors for photo shoot and make up tests, and to discuss their rolls as well as going over the script.
  • Find more locations.
  • Get actors to sign actor release forms.
  • Create a shooting schedule which fits around everybody.
