costumes/props

The costumes for the characters in this piece are going to be pretty similar, to help show the sequence of all the characters doing the same actions in the video.

Main Character(male)- I have an image in my hood of what i would like this character to look like, and making sure his costume is appropriate will be influential to the success of the music video. A list of key items needed:





  • A black hooded jumper is essential (opening sequence of video)


  • A pair of jeans or maybe tracky bottoms either will be fine.


  • A pair of trainers, although the design or style is not really important.


  • A pair of headphones(part of props)



There will be approx. 9 other characters all together in the video, they will be wearing similar outfits to the main character, quite casual clothes, although some uniqueness is also required.


At this moment in time, I only have a few props i wont to use in my music video, the first being a trumpet, a trumpet is important as it is a key signifier of the original band throughout the track. The trumpet will be played in a variety of sections of the video, some points being the beginning and when the trumpet is played in the track.






The other main prop I will use is a bike, in more detail a man riding a bike. This will be used in the music video when a man rides towards the walking group but stops when he has passed them gets off his bike, takes off any equipment, leaves it all and also begins to follow them.

  1. Well done for explaining your ideas but you must illustrate the source of your ideas with reference to your research into similar bands, images of these bands would be useful.
    You must also make an effort to utilise media terminology.

  2. Explain in what way costumes are generic or similar to other bands.
