There are only two main characters in our film and then there is the newsreader.
Charlotte the main character is the innocent victim whereas Gregg is the stalker/killer. Both complete oposites which I feel should be emphasised in costume.
Charlotte as I said is the victim, and therefore she should be portrayed as innocent and vunerable however, I don't want the symbolism to be really in your face and I want to portray her as still girly, which will suggest she is weaker than Gregg.
An example of a female in a similar film is the character Bella Swan in Twilight.
She dresses like a typical teenager but through the use of light clothing portrays a sense of symbolism.


This is an example of the kind of hoody that Gregg will wear, the dark colour is symbolic of evil.

For the newsreader it's important to look at what kind of clothing they wear.
I researched BBC news female readers and from the reports i've seen on the t.v and the pictures i've seen, i've found that generally they are dressed smart, normally in a suit.

This is a shot of Bella in the woods, note her clothing is a big contrast to the character Edward in colour, her's is a light colour compared to his dark clothing. This is the effect we want to create in our film. Where Charlotte's clothing creates a sense of innocence, Gregg's dark clothing should come across as evil and dangerous.
We have decided that Charl should wear a light coloured cardigan, which she already has, which is a pinkish colour. This will portray her as girlie but the white top she will where will show her innocence. Gregg on the other had will wear dark clothing for example a black hoody to show he is dangerous.
