Once the make-up tests were done we ventured out into the world to locate our actor’s wardrobe and a few props we had yet to pick up.
The is a Value Village located very close to my apartment and that was the first place we went to look. The short film is about two homeless people living on the street so new clothes were out of the question. So we decided on certain colors we were after and hunted until we found everything we needed.
After about an hour, both of our leads in the film had their costumes as well as a few other touches like bags and sweaters to carry around.
Add to that the collection of props I started a few weeks ago and we are pretty much all set to go.
I’m actually very encouraged by the look of our film. One of the biggest scenes takes place in the park pictured below:
The outfits we picked up provide a really amazing contrast that’s sure to look great on camera. I’m planning a pretty ambitious post process for this film specifically when it comes to color and the decisions we made regarding wardrobe and props definitely reflects that.
Finishing all the shopping we needed to do is a relief. It’s a major item I can now scratch off my list.
