Costume and styling (2)

We have come to a final decision on what we want our band to wear during the music video next Tuesday. I have put together two outfits for both Ellie & Alex so they can change outfits throughout the video and also incase of any spillages where they are forced to change outfits. However, we are going to try and ensure that no spillages are made so it doesn't come down to this.

Alex:
 Outfit 1: Topman white fitted shirt, Black Levi skinny fit jeans, Vintage wash oversized denim jacket, all black Old Skool Vans.

Outfit 2: H&M Black Tshirt, Black Levi skinny fit jeans, Vintage wash oversized denim jacket, all black Old Skool Vans.

Ellie:
Outfit 1: Oasis sheer insert white dress, House Of Holland Superga flatforms, Red Kate Moss lipstick, Models Own Red Alert nail polish.

Outfit 2: ASOS Off the shoulder black body con midi dress, House Of Holland Superga flatforms, Red Kate Moss lipstick, Models Own Red Alert nail polish.

After doing lots of research into what bands within our genre (indie/synth pop) wear in their music videos and whilst performing we have put together these outfits. Still focusing on mono tonal fashion with the exception of red highlights in Ellie's outfit (lipstick and nails) and Alex's denim jacket.
All the clothing we are using is either sourced from the team (both dresses and shoes being mine) or from the band members themselves, as we are having to pay for the location we are now trying to cut back on any unnecessary costs. Researching bands such as AlunaGeorge, MSMR and CHVRCHES have influenced the style/fashion we have decided to dress our band in.

Costume and styling (1)

I have done some research into the genre of music we are basing our music video on and how we should dress our band/models to fit in with this genre, song choice and band profile (ensuring that each band member's costume matches their individual personality). Below i have found various images as a starting point as to how we could dress our band. We initially had the idea of a monochrome style to base our costume on. After further research i think this idea is still viable, however we must ensure that due to our choice of location(s) the way we dress our band must work with the location, lighting and song choice we have chosen for our music video. We must also ensure that our band do not become lost in our chosen location due to the busy mise en scene that we want to include in shots. The scale of location is also going to play a huge part in our music video.
The list of bands i have researched includes MSMR, Au Revoir Simone, Haim, AlunaGeorge, Mo, Wild Belle, CHVRCHES, Lorde, The XX & London Grammar.
