Our characters' costumes will be critical to their representation within the film. The decision we make on costumes will have a major impact on how the chartacters are percieved, so discussion will be critical to making to sure we make the right choice.
The protagonist will awake in a dark and dingy garage, and so we will need to discuss as a group what we think is the best choice of costume. Having him smartly dressed would make a good contrast to the mise-en-scene of the garage, although shabby and dishevelled clothing could act as a way to relate the character to the events of the film.
The dead girl within the box is never seen in full, and so the costume we use will largely be irrelevant. We have chosen to dress her in a dark jumper: this allows her to blend into the shadow of the box, leaving her blonde hair visible in the darkness. This will draw attention to the "innocent blonde" stereotype, causing the audience to feel as though the girl was dragged into the events against her will.
