Costume, Hair, and Make-Up


Georgie
Georgie
Georgie will be wearing a different outfit for each set up in the video; for the first set up - all of the white scenes - this is the style of outfit that we want Georgie to be wearing. The white scenes come at the beginning of the video while Georgie is in the character of Alice - a normal girl who comes across a strange white room. This is why we wanted a pretty basic and simple outfit for Georgie to wear during this scene, we decided some plain, slouchy jeans and a casual jumper with some bright trainers to make the outfit pop a little bit more.


Grey sweater, blue mum jeans, red trainers

We took inspiration for this outfit from the style of Kiesza in her video for her single Hideaway.We liked the simplicity of the style, and tried to replicate this idea so that we made our artist relatable to many of our target female audience, using clothes from American Apparel, Topshop, and Nike.

We wanted Georgie's hair and make up to be quite simple as well; we thought that her make up should resemble an 'everyday/school' sort of look, to make it look like it's just a normal day for her character. To achieve this we decided that basic foundation, eyeliner, mascara, and nude tone lipsticks would look best, along with Georgie's hair being worn down, in its wavy natural state.




Glittery black jumpsuit and black sandal-like heels
For the performance scenes we wanted Georgie to be wearing something more special, and more glamorous to give her that 'popstar' factor. We wanted to keep her sort of tomboy look at the same time so we decided that a jumpsuit would be the best choice as it works for both her tomboy side, and her glamorous side, creating the perfect balance. We also thought that Georgie should be wearing heels in the performance scenes, but we thought sandals/wedged heels would work better than some stilettos, giving her a more comfortable look.

Plain white t shirt, black leggings, black trainers/
For the paint fight scene we wanted all of our actors to be wearing plain white t shirts so that the coloured powder paint would show up really well. We thought that it would be best for Georgie to wear black leggings as they would most likely be the easiest to wash the paint out of afterwards. This was more of a practical decision as it would work for all of the actors to be wearing white tops and dark leggings/trousers. We wanted Georgie to be wearing basic make up in this scene, it was unnecessary for us to do much with her hair and make up as after the first shot she would be covered in paint anyway.
