Costume and Props

Costume.

Our artist will be wearing Chino's, a denim shirt, and some form of casual shoe. It relates well to the indie genre and the age bracket of our target audience. We also think that it will make him look casual and comfortable which also relates to the indie genre, due to the idea of being casual in videos and public appearances, which greatly differs from a pop artist.







Our female will be sporting light blue jeans, which are able to roll up. This is so we can easily film the paddling scene. She will be wearing a wax Barbour style jacket.

She will also be wearing red vans. We have decided that we want her to be wearing these because they are practical and casual and go well with our indie theme.








Props


Guitar - By having the guitar is showing that he is a credible artist and can play his own music. it is also a key convention of the indie genre. 
Microphone stand- to show he is singing his own music and its not auto tuned or greatly tampered with. 
Ice cream and chips- cliche thing for couples in films, videos and television. also links with the beach location.
Tea lights- surround our artist to create a more meaningful, romantic atmosphere. also a small source of lighting.
Camera phone- to create a handheld effect. to emphasize intimacy and romance between the characters.
