Props

The props we used:
- Black umbrealla - We chose to use a black umbrella because black means sadness and loss, and we were aiming to make it look as if our artist is sad and trying to find a route to happiness. Even though it is raining in none of the scenes we have shot, we still wanted to use the umbrella to show the audience that she is trying to keep everyone out and hiding behind an umbrella as a way to hide behind all of her problems.
- Sunglasses - We chose to have our artist wearing sunglasses in some of our shots because it brought an edge to her look and also because they were quite big and wide-eyed, made her look as if she was looking around and learning about the world, and taking it all in with her big eyes.
- Photograph - We wanted to use a photograph of our artist and a guy because it gave more meaning to why she might be on a journey, however, we would like to leave it to the viewers imagination, for them to determine why she might be sad about a past lover/friend.
- Gold horse necklace/pendant - We thought that this would be good to have on our artists as horse's are usually assosiated with roaming free, elegance and grace, everything that we are aiming for our artist to be.

Costume and Make up

First costume, location one. Richmond Park
- Pink long coat - We decided to use a pale pink coat because we wanted to show a sense of naiveity and childishness. Often pink is related with being for young girls, who like Barbies and fairytales etc, showing that she needs to grow up a bit in order to find herself and that maybe the world is not as it seems and even fairytales aren't real.
- White top - We wanted our artist to wear a white top because white is a very pure and innocent shade, and they are the chracteristics we wanted our artist to have.
- Skinny jeans - To show our artists petite frame and that she isn't strong, mentally or physically.
- Black ballet pumps - Again to connect with the childish and immature theme, often young girls enjoy and do ballet, so by her wearing a modern version of ballet pumps, it not only makes the artist more contemporary but also, shows her being naive and immature.
- Stripy grey/green cardigan - We thought this piece made the artist look very elegant and natural, as grey and green are both natural colours/shades.
There are 3 layers to this outfit, which shows that our artist is hiding behind a lot and in order to 'come out of her hiding place' she needs to shed her layers and be herself again.


Second costume, location two. Isabella Plantation
- Long blue coat - We thought that we would have another long coat for our second location to tie in with the wardrobe from the first location. The coat is navy blue which is very close to the shade of black, which carries the same connotations like sadness.
- Blue skinny jeans - We wanted to have our artist wearing blue skinny to again show her frailty, but also to keep her all in blue- to make her look like a silhouette, connoting ghost like features and perhaps lacking personality, the reason she is on her personal quest to find out who she is.
- Boots - We used the boots to keep the outfit modern and also contrast against the rest of the dark outfit, and to show that even though she may be confused about who she really is, there is something standing out if the sihouette.
- Scarf and gloves - The scarf was used as another way for our artist to cover herself up (another layer to keep herself hidden) and we thought that the gloves would go with a scarf, as winter items.

For both locations we thought it would be best for the artist to have her hair down as another way to hide herself - behind her hair.

We also tred to keep our artists make- up looking very natural, to tie in with the natural surroundings.
