Costumes

Below, I will go into depth about what costumes each character will be wearing. This will be pretty easy, compared to last year, as since we are making a modern film in the present day then it's just a simple matter of wearing the clothes that we would normally wear. However, some clothes will have to be planned, and it may be an idea to use certain colours on certain characters to show a feeling or how the character actually is.

Ryan Fogg
One thing that we have to make sure during the filming over the 2 days, is that Ryan's character wears the exact same clothes. Because he is turned invisible, he is unable to get changed, meaning that to keep continuity, he will have to have the same clothes he has on when he disappeared. An idea for Ryan's costume would be to have him wearing darkish clothing, some grey/black jeans and a grey/black top. This can then relate to Ryan being in mourning over the death of the grandfather and also that he is quite a dull and depressed character.

Lewis Fogg
For Lewis, as we are filming over 2 different days, he will have 2 different sets of clothes on. Lewis will be wearing a bright and vibrant coloured t-shirt on the first day, and a more neutral colour on the second day. Again, this relates to the death of the grandfather as him wearing a colourful t-shirt then it shows that the death no longer affects him and the colour shows that he is a generally more happy and popular character compared to Ryan.

Jayne Fogg
This character will again require two different costumes as we are filming over two different days. Jayne will be required to wear neutral colours, to show that she is the neutral character within the film and the link between the two brothers.

Robert Sutton
This character is probably the hardest character to plan for, in terms of costume. A news-presenter is stereotypically wearing smart clothing, so we plan to have the character or Robert Sutton wearing a shirt and a tie. Since the shot of Robert Sutton reporting the news, will be a Medium Shot sat at the desk so it is not too important about what this character wears on the lower part of the body.
