Character Development and Costume Design

Our story has a lot to do with character development because our story revolves around one character and we are trying to show the audience what a day is like in his life. Basically our whole opening is developing our character and seeing how his mood changes when he realizes that he could be exposed for the person he truly is. Our opening isn't going to have a lot of dialogue so we have to develop our character through actions and facial expressions. Our facial expressions are going to be small because we decided to only show extreme close ups of our main characters face and not show his full face. To further develop our character, we might set up some posters in his room to show his interests. By showing our character's daily routine, it will show that he is a very neat and clean person who doesn't like things out of place. Also, showing our subtle hints that our character is a serial killer will develop his character by showing what his main purpose is and why the story revolves around him.

The costume design is probably going to be easy because our character is gonna be a man in his early 30's who works in a business. First we will have our character in simple pajamas, like a t-shirt and loose pants, and then we're going to have the character in a suit for when he's getting ready for his job. The costumes have to represent the visual styles of the production and give the audience context. From looking at our character's costume design, the audience will probably be able to tell that the story takes place in present day. We also have to use costume design for the person who goes missing and their clothes are seen in our main characters house. We want to make the character a young girl, so we just have to find clothes that look like they belong to a young girl.

This is what our main character's costumes will probably look like:
