Costume List

Our film is based around graffiti but with a gang culture in it as well so we thought it best to have dark, baggy clothes with such things like hoodies and tracksuit pants. The film is only meant to take place over a short period of time so the costumes in our film did not have to vary much each day and some of the filming was done at night so the items of clothing cannot be properly identified anyway.

Running scenes: the main character wore a black hooded top and black tracksuit bottoms, he also wore a black cap. The extras in these scenes did not need costumes and could use what they were wearing at the time as they were playing pedestrians.

Graffiti scenes: In the scenes were the main character is seen doing graffiti you cannot see the bottom half of his body so that is irrelevant, he is wearing the same black hoodie and has a black bandana to hide his face as he is committing a crime.

Extra'a in all scenes: In all the scenes that extras are used they are wearing their own clothes as they are either playing pedestrians or in the scene were the gang is seen all together it is night time and they are all wearing dark clothing.

The drug dealing scene:In this scene it was very important that the characters had hooded tops on to cover their identity because hey wear committing an illegal act.

Drive by: In this scene the shooter only had to have on a leather glove whilst holding the prop gun, the leather glove was so that it seemed some what professional and so in the film he didn't get finger prints on the gun. The character dying in this scene wore an outdoor coat with a hooded top underneath, his costume was not as important as in other scenes because he is not doing anything other than waiting.

Fight scene: Again in this scene the characters were not doing anything suspicious but they still had to wear dark clothes to fit into the theme of the film.

Research Questionnaire and results

For my research I have designed a questionnaire to help me gain a greater knowledge of my audience: my questionnaire can be found here

The results for my questionnaire can be found in the table below.

Run: filming locations

Red Lion bridge and canal underpass(maghull):

The bridge is used in a scene to establish a relationship between two characters as they are seen walking across it together. The canal underpass is for a graffiti tagging seen done using a deodorant can. We thought these to be suitable locations as the bridge walkway is narrow and we can use a good camera angle in this shot, the underpass is a good idea for a graffiti scene as there is already graffiti on there.

Alley by Hudson park (maghull):

This location will be used for the fight scene where two of the main characters get into an argument. We feel this would be a good location for this scene because the characters are seperated from everyone else and the argument is just between these two.

Renshaw Street and quiggins store (liverpool):

This location is where a very important scene takes place in the film, it is where the graffiti stops and the harder crimes come in like drug dealing. The footage used from quiggins was of graffiti on shop fronts and walls. We thought this would be a good idea because the drug deal scene will be completed at night and this will add alot of atmosphere to the scene.

Car park in maghull square:

This location will be used for the drive by scene, we think it is a good place to film this scene as not many cars go there at night and it will give lots of room for the car to manouver and drive away quickly.

Underpass subway (maghull):

We thought the subway would be a good location for the scene where the main character drops the cans and for a running scene because it is a confined space so the main focus is on the character running and not the surrounding scenery.

Ballswood Bridge underpass:

This location will be used for a graffiti scene, we think this will be a good location for this as upon previous visits we have noticed multiple graffiti tags underneath the bridge.
