Costumes- Representation

Protagonist
The protagonist will be wearing clothes typical of an average male teenager. This will be a hoody with a t-shirt underneath, jeans and slightly scruffy trainers. I have decided to stick with the stereotypical image for a male teenager because this is what the audience will expect when they first see him, and I don't really need to shock them at that stage of the film when they first see him. I also think this will make him look more vulnerable than for example a suit which would give him quite a manly image. 

Antagonist
All of the clothes that I have selected contribute to making the antagonist as scary and shocking as possible for the audience. On his head he will be wearing a scary Halloween mask that I have had for a while. To make this look realistic he will also need grey face paint around his eyes so that it blends in well with the mask and you cant see any of his normal skin tone. As well as this grey face paint may also be needed on his neck in the areas where he isn't covered up by clothes . He will be wearing a black hoody which will look quite sinister, and will also cover up the back of his head where the mask will end. He will also have grey face paint on his hands, as I want all of his body parts that aren't covered up by clothes to be grey to keep the way he looks constant. On his bottom half he will be wearing plain black tracksuit bottoms, with plain black shoes. The reason I am having him dressed all in black is because you wont be able to see much of his body in the dark if he is black, which will add to the mystery.
