1. I decided to look on the internet for ideas of what costume the doll could be wearing in our film
opening. I found that most costumes were very light colours such as white, cream and lighter shades
of other colours, this symbolises angelic and innocent colours, this is because dolls are usually seen as
a positive character and not associated with blood or negative things.
In our film opening we are going to use our doll character as the opposite of a traditional
representation where the doll is the villain, we have decided to use both ideas of costume, using a
light colour such as purple but a darker shade to show darkness. The black tights/socks with add to
the darkness of the character to show the doll isn’t innocent and angelic as you would expect.

2. I decided to look on the internet for ideas of the costume that Nyran is going to wear. In
most horror films the male character is usually the villain and isn’t the vulnerable
character, which means they are usually wearing a costume to represent what they are
(e.g. wearing a mask, face covered in blood) this makes it hard to find inspiration for our
character costume. We feel that we can give Nyran a costume which most teenagers and
the audience can relate with.

3. This our the costume for our doll
that we are going to use in our
horror film opening. As I am
representing the doll as a human I
took on the role to make and create
two dresses for both me and the
doll.

4. We are both wearing a similar purple
dress with black tights/knee high socks
this is so the audience will have a clear
understanding that I am a human form of
the doll in the film opening.
I am going to curl my hair to look like the
Doll’s so we look very similar.
This is going to be
similar make-up to
the doll.

5. This is the costume Nyran is going to be
wearing in the film opening. It’s everyday
clothing for the character and the type of
clothing he would wear everyday as its an
ordinary day for him until he gets to the
woods. We have chosen this costume as
we feel that teenagers will be able to
relate to him more. We have chosen the
red coloured t-shirt to symbolise blood
and death.
