Symbolism

the costumes in my film are really symbolic because i really thought about each character and what i wanted to show about them. the ideas are quite simple so they work very effectively. in the film red represents danger so Tilly and the passer by will both be wearing red. Black means that a character is surrounded by death and natural neutral colors show that the character is sane and down to earth. Tilly wears a red singlet, carry a red bag and is wearing black shorts and shoes. this shows she is in a lot of danger and that death will soon be coming her way. our shadow creature which is the vision placed in the minds of the victims of the invisible monster wears all black because it is essentially death chasing them down. the passer by will be the next victim at the films end and so she is wearing natural colors to show she is sane at the moment but she is wearing red shoes and lipstick to foreshadow the danger she is in. finally we have our ghost girl who is in our opening scenes who is supposed to be the ghost of the girl who was previously killed by our mind invading monster. she is wearing all white, apart from black shoes. this shows she is now sarean in death, but it also shows her isolation in the land of the dead.
