Costumes and Makeup
Costume
As our genre is Thriller, we will follow the conventions of thriller films and keep the costumes very simple as it is not our main focus. If our genre was horror, we'd perhaps have to focus more on costumes so it would attract the target audience and follow the conventions of horror. For example, in the 2015 version of “Carrie”, the main character is seen to be wearing a prom dress drenched in blood. This therefore shows the audience that the film is horror. Our film will not be as simple to categorise through costume as Thriller is not quite as clear as Horror.
Each character will have different costumes when shown outside of school but to portray to the audience that they are in the same school, they will be wearing uniform.
Makeup
Similarly with costume, makeup is also hard to make it recognisable to the audience that our genre is thriller so this will again not be our main focus.
Each character will just have a simple face of “everyday” makeup which will create a professional look for the audience.
