Costume and Band Image

Myself and Matt had a meeting this lunch to discuss our thoughts on costume. We thought we'd post it on our individual blog to show the rest of the group at a later date.

Band Image:
When we talked about the music, we all had a very clear image in our head, that this is obviously young people performing (age group: 18-25). It's not pretentious and it's not trying to be anything, it is just a bunch of people with a passion for music, performing because it's what they want to do. We want to really reflect this in our own band image, but also create a sense of uniform but not to the point where they're all wearing the same thing, but rather a similar style.

Vocalist:
We want the vocalist to stand out from the rest of the band as he is the central focus of the video. Instead of always focusing on him through cutting, we will have it so that even in other members shots, your attention is drawn to him.
Costume (Simon): Straightened hair, bold red t-shirt, zip-up black jacket, black jeans, trainers.

Drums:
Usually in rock music the Drummer is the second main focus of attention, because of the constant movement and multiple things taking place. In our video we want to make the drummer feel more uniform with the rest of the band.
Costume (James): Messy ,Black jeans, supra purple/black trainers, and black t-shirt

Guitarists:
Costume (Nick): Hair messy at the back/straightened fringe, black skinny jeans, white V-neck, black and red checkered shirt, black and white canvas trainers.
Costume (Matt): Hair extreme spikey, black jeans straight fit, green checkered shirt, plain white shoes.

Bass:
Costume (David): Hair left neat and tidy, black jeans, tight fit t-shirt, grey t-shirt.
