Wardrobe/ Mise-en-scene

My group members and I have been debating about what we want our actors to wear. We have established that Justin is going to be portrayed as a jock/frat college student while Chloe is more of a studious, more conservative girl. Personally, I believe that Justin should be shirtless wearing just basketball shorts because that is what I think a college kid would be wearing if we were just hanging out in his apartment. For Chloe, we don't want her to be too stuck up and nerdy so we are thinking of her wearing some straight leged jeans with NO rips, and a Cardigan but a little off the shoulder if possible to make it more college student-like. For reference, this is what Chloe and Justin look like. We had them give up a picture of themselves so whoever is reading this blog can have a mental image of who they are continuing to read about.

Now after our previous project which was our Music video campaign, I decided to retire from my acting career. I really committed to being the lead singer of a rock band and it was enough for one lifetime. So I thought. But of course, we need a girlfriend for Justin for our plot twist. I would say I am not a shy person and am very social so being filmed isn't the worst thing ever I am just not the biggest fan of it. Also, with Justin being one of my closest friends it really feels wrong playing his girlfriend. I decided I am going to wear black to represent the more scandalous girlfriend to juxtapose Chloe's character. I'm also thinking of wearing a darker lip shade and pairing it with eyeliner to get the obvious difference across. Chloe will also be wearing light makeup to highlight her innocence. We decided on a ponytail for her hair because it ties in with the nerd vibe. Here is a picture of me for reference.

Saturday we are filming for our project in the apartment in Miami so I will keep you posted on how that goes. Hopefully, all goes well because it is going to be a very long and stressful day. Bye blog goodnight!
