After looking at different types of pyjamas on Google I have found out that I like these types of pyjamas. A plain coloured top and patterned bottom, I think that it looks like the typical pyjama outfit.

What Jerome actually wore

Pyjamas

I had thought he would bring pyjamas such as patterned bottoms and the plain top, however, he wore a black top with no sleeves and sweatpants. I do not mind because I think it looks better, and I do not think the pyjamas that I had seen on Google would have suited Jerome which would have been bad for the portrayal of my character (Tyler).

College Clothes e.g. Casual

What Jerome had worn

jerome 2

Jerome wore a grey top and black jeans with black and white converses. I like this look because it is very modernistic and I think it makes him look older.

Casual Clothing – for flashback

What Jerome wore

IMG_0016

For the flashback scene, Jerome had worn a long white t-shirt with black jeans and his black and white converse. I had wanted him to look like he had just come from a pub or night club and he is drunk. I think that he did really well with the clothes he chose.

Leanne

College Clothes e.g. Casual

What Rose wore:

costume 1photo (8)

Rose had worn two outfits. The first one was a green geek top with a dark blue hoody, bluish purple jeans and black and white Adidas trainers. Then, for the canteen scene she wore, a pinkish colourful top, her black geek hoody and black jeans with her Adidas trainers. I think this look goes really well because it is casual clothing compared to smart casual etc.

Olivia

Work clothes for Tyler’s Mother

Tyler’s Mother is going to wear work clothes at the beginning of the pilot because she does night shifts. I want to portray that to the audience, so that the audience can get an insight on her character straight away. Hopefully, I will get a costume that makes her look that she is working at a low paid job so she can not be there 24/7. This what I want my actress to wear because that is how I have visualise my character (Olivia’s) costume to be in the scene.

What Maria wore:

maria's costume shoes

Theses are the clothes Maria had worn to act as Olivia (Tyler’s mother), I had asked her to wear them because they are what I had visualised Olivia’s work clothes being. This has met my expectations when it came to the costume for her character. She arrived with the boots, jeans and top then I had given her the vest and helmet.

Casual Clothing

Olivia is at home and she is relaxed so she would be wearing everyday clothing rather than something smart (formal).

maria's costume 2

Maria wore the same clothes except she got rid of the hat and the vest, which I think is okay because most of the scenes are on the same day. Also, I think that it makes Maria look older and makes her look more motherly which I like a lot (it suits her and the character that she is portraying).

Rose

College Clothes e.g. Casual

What Isabella wore:

costume 3

I like what Isabella had worn, it is very cool and stylish. She wore a top that had Iron Man on it, an army camouflage jacket, black jeans and trainers. This outfit conveys the exact look that I had wanted for Rose.

Lexi

College Clothes, Casual

What Sharday wore:

sharday costume

Sharday had worn a black top with a black hoody, black jeans with black trainers and a necklace. I think this outfit portray her personality as being dark and fierce, which I find appealing and hopefully the audience will too. Also, it looks like she goes to the gym this implies that she works out and the audience may pick up on.

Sam

This is what I sort of what Louie wear, smart casual as if he had just been on a date with his girlfriend, because that is what he back story is. This is what envisioned the role of Sam wearing, making him look very dapper.

What Louie wore:

Unfortunately, Louie could not show up because he had work so I had to change the scene completely this is explained in my diary.

Sam’s Girlfriend

What I (Stephanie) wore:

IMG_0073

I had worn these clothes because I thought that suited Sam’s girlfriends character, also I had a pink top in case it dint compliment Louie was wearing. Unfortunately, I had to cut the scene because Louie could not make it. This is explained in my diary.

Bystander

What Karim wore

IMG_0001

Karim wore a checker top with a blueish grey hoody, grey jeans and dark blue and white converse. I like the look because it is very tough yet casual and I think it suits the character that he portrayed in the episode which I think is great and works well.

Receptionist

Work clothes

The costume (clothing) that I want Odinelsa to wear is similar to the clothing presented down below. The reason why I want her to wear this type of clothing is because she works at a therapist office and I think that is what receptionists wear, I want her to look formal and professional. Either two types of styles will work, the trouser,blazer and shirt or the dress and blazer.

What Odinelsa wore:

Odinelsa did not show because she had an appointment so she was unable to attend which is understandable. I did a voiceover instead.

Therapist

Smart (formal) clothing for the therapist e.g. suit, tie, black trousers, smart shoes etc.

The reason I want Dedan to wear a suit and tie etc, is so that he looks smart and professional. Also, I want him to look older and I think that this attire will me achieve that maturity and professionalism. Even though he has two lines in my pilot.

What Dedan wore:

20150518_214222

Dedan wore exactly what I wanted him to wear, a suit and tie with smart trousers and smart shoes. He looked very smart and professional which is what I was going for so he met my expectations and I’m so happy that he did.

Props

A prop is an object that actors use when performing in a film or play. For example These props down below.

Crutches

IMG_0008

The crutches are for Tyler’s character because he can not walk properly. This is a useful prop because it is a crucial part of Tyler’s Backstory.

Pharmacy photo (9)

The picture that is shown on the left hand side is a map of how to get to the Pharmacy from the college. Even though I know how to get there, I had thought it would be best to put it down for people who may not know where it is. The picture shown on the right is what the establishment looks like. The crutches were 10 pounds which I think is expensive, they should be pounds.

Lunch

Pizza

They had finished eating pizza when Lexi slaps Tyler.

Mobile Phone

This mobile is used for a scene (his mother sends him a message saying that she loves him etc.

College ID Card

IMG_0010

The College ID card is so Jerome (Tyler) and Rose (Leanne) can get into the college as well do one of my scenes (the college scene).

Remote Control

Remote control

The remote control is a prop, because in the one of my scenes the television is involved so this prop is necessary.

House Phone

This is the house phone Tyler’s mother Olivia (played by Maria) uses to call the Therapist with.

Breakfast – Bowl,Cereal, Croissant

Bowl and spoon Croissant

Breakfast is served in the kitchen scene of my pilot, theses are the props that going to be used. These props were used when filming the kitchen scene so I met my expectation here.

Cup

IMG_0104

This is the cup that Maria (who is the role of Tyler’s mother) is holding before she consoles her son. Not an important prop but an either way.

Alcohol Bottle and Heavy Object

IMG_0067

This prop is for the flashback shown at the start of the episode, to clarify that he has been drinking plus he drinks some in the scene. Also, it was wash out and rinsed before being used in the shooting of my pilot and filled with water. This prop was going to be used by Sam’s girlfriend but is now used by the bystander who has a fight was Tyler, he uses the object to hit Tyler over the head with, this prop is a crucial prop because it sets the tone for the whole episode.
