Costume
Casper (the murderer)
This character needs to look smart and unlikely to be a murderer. Therefore we have chosen to dress him in clothes that will make him appear neat and stylish.
Firstly we have decided that Casper will wear glasses. This immediately bringing the connotations that this boy is smart and sophisticated. These glasses will make him look less like a murderer and instead a clever and pleasant mannered teenager. This will make the murder a more surprising and engaging story.
Casper needs to look plain yet stylish therefore we have chosen to dress him in a simple red jumper and black jeans. This is fashionable yet not too eye catching, making him appear a normal teenager. This will also contrast with the green of the forrest and make hims stand out.
Casper will wear standard trainers on his feet. They will barely be seen in the shots, but they suit the outfit, incase they do come into frame, and are appropriate for our actor when filming as he will be running most of the day.We have also chosen to give him a scarf. This is fashionable and will contribute to the impression that this boy is not mean or defiant. It should also suggest that this boy is not capable of an act of murder, making it more surprising when it is revealed to the audience, that he has in fact just killed someone. The scarf should also look very cinematic, waving in the wind as he runs. and finally it will be very cold when we film so he needs something to keep warm...
