Hello!!!! I’m dead inside but very much alive on the outside, or so I think. I kid!! My apologies for not posting earlier but I do take notes during discussions and during my own research. Let me share them now 🙂
From the very first time Edmund discussed with me about the film up until now, I’ve seen a huge progress in terms of character development, and the story as well – be it through shots, sound design or art direction. However, I’m glad that Ed established what he wanted to see in each character from the very beginning which makes it easier for me to plan and source.
Notes from the first meeting with Ed:
12th May 2016
Location
- Terrace house, affluent family
- Tracy is spoilt at home by her parents
Wardrobe
Tracy
- Avoid black and white colours
- Decent, looks good, fashionable
- Girl-next-door
- No-makeup-makeup look in school
Tracy’s Parents
- Dad – Polo tee and pants (However, in the recent month, the actor mentioned that he does not look good in polo tee and requested to wear folded up long sleeves collared shirt. I thought that it was possible to work with that – the texture of the shirt, the colour, and the pants to match the shirt with in order to make it look more casual and home-appropriate. It could also look as if he just came back from work)
- Mom – Short sleeve tee, khaki pants (pj pants)
Crow Woman
- Black shirt, striped pants
- Tshirt designed for the film? Worth it or na?
- Outfit used to be what Tracy wore when she was younger?
- Crow mask has to be cute, big eyes, otherwise will look too serious/scary
- Incorporate yellow in the look?
I will upload character boards in my next post! 🙂
