OS - A look into Costumes for our Characters

I have looked at a few videos to try and get a grip of costumes for characters in a narrative. I have looked at videos such as ' Under the Bridge' by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers where the lead singer wears a white t-shirt for part of it. This is pretty basic and i have looked further into different possibilities with what our characters can wear. We are going to have one boy and one girl in the video so we will need to look at different videos for each gender. In the video 'Little Lion Man' by Mumford and Sons, the band is simply on stage performing the song. They are all wearing similar clothes such as a waist coat and a shirt, two of them are wearing blazers and they are all wearing smart shoes. This gave me the idea that the boy could be smart and educated so he could wear a shirt on the train to Brighton with possibly a waist coat or a blazer.

In the video ' Somebody Told Me' by The Killers the lead singer is wearing a polo shirt with a black blazer over the top which looks smart but also something that someone are age would wear.






I think after this research myself and Nathan have decided that the boy will wear a shirt with jeans with the girl also wearing casual wear. The band may wear either shirts and jeans or T-shirt and shorts depending on weather.
