Costume of Ghost

This is generally what one of our VIMK members Irma wears generally to school. Since our school policy is to dress formally it would be easier to fit her in school wear since its a formal outfit to wear. Considering one of the main characters in this production is a ghost we had to think of an appropriat costume attire which would suit this role.

As you can see here we have decided to put Irma into a normal plain school shirt,black tights, a typical school skirt and plain black flat shoes. The reason behind this choice of custume is because the ghost in this film has some redemption with school life, so we thought it would be suitable to suit her in this attire to portray this to the audience that the ghost has something to do with the history of the school. We also decided to place her hair in front of her face during most of this opening. We did this because we didn't want to reveal all the features of the character so early on in the opening of the production so it added an element of mystery to the opening by doing this.











 Our group decided to use dark colours such as black in the attire which Irma is wearing as you can see. The reason for this choice of colour was to portray the dark elements of the ghost and it suited the lighting well, which we manipulated as dark colours foreshadow bad things such as death, which is a central part to our opening.










We realized that putting make up on Irma would be a tough task since we are not making a professional film, and the make up would be hard to make similar every time we film affecting the continuity of the film. What we did to overcome this was to use bandages which went across her face and accross her arm. The bandages show the pain and suffering she went through during her experiences in the school. The bandages add a good effect of horror to the character and adds to the ghost effect we tried to show in the film.
