Wardrobe

Luja
Archetypal "geek" appearance - large rimmed glasses, sensible shoes, blouse, cardigan. Hair tied in two plaits, to further perpetuate the geek imagery Retainer Make up, rosy cheeks, not too pale. This is in contrast with everyone else in the piece (except her mother) who are going be whited out, as shown in a previous blog post, and made to look gaunt, so to create the appearance of being maltreated, fitting with our plot. This contrast with the others we hope will show she is a protagonist character in the piece.

Old Man
Traditional "old boy" out fit Flat cap, trench coat, "jack ups" Quintessential image to correspond with the quintessentially pleasant neighbourhood at the start of the piece.

Thugs
T
Hoodies and jeans - these are the typical clothes of "youth Britain" and so create realism in the piece The hoodie furthermore has become a metaphor for gang culture and violent youths and so is the malevolent influence of these is made immediately identifiable through costume.

School Children

Traditional school uniform - Indicative of location and character Uniform illustrates the Conformity of the school and the dictatorship of the classroom that they are in as they are all forced to dress the same and this are denied freedom of expression a crucial feature of the domineering environment we wanted to create.

Tramp
Plain as possible no bright colours - drabness reflective of his misery Plain Hoodie- basic piece of clothing indicative of lack of status and the simplicity creates verisimilitude as this is the sort of thing that a homeless person would wear.

Mother
Will only be seen from middle at most Turtleneck sweatshirt - normal nothing exceptional, almost nerdy in herself Sweatshirt creates image of warmness and homeliness, which is the idea MES for a mother figure.
