Film update. Costume and dress

Next came the costume. I knew that putting it in Penny’s hands was always going to be a safe option her dedication and her work has been fantastic and it really shows in the things she makes the make-up she does and dresses she creates, I had seen that on Kyle’s piece so I know how good she is. We have stayed in close contact throughout this process but have only gave her some very loose guidelines within which to work as I want her to be able to go and express herself and make a dress that she will be proud of. She rang me asking me what colour out of several samples she had got and this became a difficult decision as I was trying to think about what will look good on camera bearing in mind the piece for a large part will be black and white. So really the importance of the colour is its tone and texture and how that will look on camera and I think out the samples we looked at the decision was always going to be between the pastel blue and pink. In the end the decision was made to go with the pastel blue as I think it would look better when turning the image black and white although I believe that either would have looked very good such is the quality of her work that the dress will really stand out. We are now at a point in which the dress is finished and it looks great. I am no way surprised about how good it looks as I always knew she would produce some great work. But I am especially pleases with how it has turned out. I will leave some pictures of it below.
