Props/Costumes - Safwana


We put together different outfits that would compliment the music genre as well as working with our storyline in our music video. All the outfits are very casual, it suits the storyline of her exploring the world, also it has a very bohemian vibe to it, in which the target audience can relate to, as they would wear similar things. We tried many different outfits and looked at what was suitable, the clothing consisted of basic colours, such as black, white and grey, as well as some khaki and burgundy. Overall we decided to incorporate all the outfits in one, and went with the black jeans, white top which was covered by the burgundy jumper and we decided to add a leather jacket towards the end. Also these outfits will be seen in the different locations when we are filming.
This is a collage of the process of the make up, as you can see, the makeup was very simple, this compliments the way in which she was dressed, although it is very light, it looked good on camera and it suited the personality of the girl, who is also very simple. Yagmur does not usually wear makeup, and we have made her put on makeup to make her more suitable for the music video.
These are the props we used in the music video, we had books on a shelf, to show her interests, as well as figure dolls to show she enjoys drawings, we have shots of her painting, therefore we had pain and paint brushes and also in one scene we have her take a picture on her Polaroid and a closeup of the film, and lastly we use a candle which she blows out and the music video ends, all of the props have a significant meaning, which represents the girl. These pictures are not my pictures, however these will be the props we will have in out music video.

  1. Great way to present your ideas but are you sure this is notjust photos of Yagmur's normal ice. Is there nothing you can add into a 'normal everyday girls' life that would use connotations and signify the meaning you want?

  3. After the presentation, we spoke about how we can change this up, and we're planning to change the outfits, so they're not too casual. So for example, we're going to have Yagmur and Selcan dress less casual, so fur coats, etc. and the colours will be much brighter and when we have shots without Selcan, Yagmur will dress in much darker colours, with less effort. The music video Salvation by Gabrille Aplin is a great example, she starts off wearing black, but towards the end she is wearing white, to show the man was her salvation.
