In our opening we want to create the right atmosphere in a number of different ways, and one of these ways is with the costumes. We want both of our 'killers'/'baddies', (Jade and Efosa) to be dressed in dark clothing to highlight that they are up to something, the dark outfits hold negative connotations and will immediately allow the audience to point the finger at who is who.
We would like Jess on the other hand to wear something white. We felt that white holds connotations of purity and innocence, which will help the reader empathise more with the character Jess has to play. Also we can show how Jade is corrupting Jess' purity (white) by covering her in red lipstick. Red holds connotations of hate, but can however be linked to passion and love which would be quite disturbing for the audience.
We have decided that costumes play a very big part in what you are trying to put accross, and these subtle hints will be what will make our film great. Fingers crossed!
