In my preliminary task we're basing it on a suspenseful film based in both a tense and natural setting of the woods and a unnatural and tense setting of a interrogation room. We thought that rather using a set look in the costume area we would just use a natural look. This is to make the prelim task seem the most realistic we can as in a murder the suspects and victim aren't going to be dressed up they'll be in natural clothes.
Costumes are used in a variety of films including 'The book of Eli' ,a film we've been studying a lot, they show a post apocalyptic film with a variety of characters who all wear similar costumes.
in the photo above you can see both the main characters wearing baggy clothes that's too big for them with glasses to protect their eyes from the sun.
This shows that theirs certain stereyotypes for different film genres as its also similair costumes in 'The Road' another post apocolyptic film we've studied closely.
