The Victims Costume Research

The victim in our horror film could wear the colour white as it suggests purity and serenity. This will suggest to the audience that she is innocent and is the victim in the film. The colour of her clothing will also contrast with the dark, dirty clothing of the villain which will highlight to the audience just how different these characters are.

If we decide to film the scene in the evening it means that the white Hoodie will stand out against the dark setting. This will make the victim look vulnerable and even more alone.

The Hoodie also looks relaxed and informal which again suggests to the audience that this could happen to them as they may relate to how she is dressed.

This dress may look effective on our victim as it is flowery, frilly and white. The dress will reflect her femininity and emphasise that she is the typical female victim. This will suggest to the audience her innocence and attitude.

The audience may grow to feel protective over the main character as she is so vulnerable. This means that when anything happens to her they will feel responsible and want to help.

The flowers may work well with our setting as it is linked to nature and the outdoors.

This costume reflects the characters modesty and demonstrates the fact that she is not trying to draw attention to herself in any way. This will cause the audience to feel empathy for the character as she does not deserve her fate in any way.

The jeans are simple and plain which reflects the average teenager which again makes the audience feel it could have been them.
