R+P Post 25: Costumes, props and make-up

Our costumes and make-up will hopefully connote the genres of UK R&B/garage and house music that our song falls into. We have attempted to make the costume for the singer and the extras on location based around casual, streetwise clothing that is popular primarily in the UK, with brands such as Adidas and Nike. The costume for the DJ is based off of what the most popular and influential DJs wear, and it is fairly similar to the rest of the costumes - it's usually streetwise and dark in colour. The only major addition is headphones, which seem to be omnipresent among DJs.

Our final costume is shown below:

Our props are different depending on whether we are shooting on location or in the studio. On location the only specific prop we need to use is a phone, for several shots as part of the narrative section of the video. In the studio we are planning to use:

-A sofa, as this will give the video a casual look and is also more interesting than just having the singer sing in front of a coloured background.
- A table, soundboard and laptop for the DJ, as this will make him seem professional and also connote that he is a DJ to the audience straight away.
