Thriller - Costume
Although our thriller falls under the sub-genre of 'Neo-Noir' and therefore was a modern interpretations , we took a large amount of inspiration from the classics of the genre, as seen in Jeremy Fisher's costume, (pictured left, top picture) we decided to modernise the classic detective coat (worn by Humphrey Bogart, right picture) to show the influences of the genre's classics, and also following the conventions of the genre. Colour symbolism is also heavily used in Alison's costume design, (top picture, pictured right) through the use of the red shoes, which stand out against the black and white style of the opening. This design choice was deliberately inspired by director Robert Rodriguez's Neo-Noir film, 'Sin City' (2005), (Bottom picture) which also uses this style of red on black and white. The red helps t emphasise Alison's character as a Femme Fatale, which proves true later in the film.

Evaluation - Question 4
Above is a montage of media texts which would appeal to my chosen audience: I have decided to focus primarily on the demographic of straight males and females in their early 20s, which is similar to that of the characters in our thriller opening, whom have similar interests as seen above: media such as films they watch are the classics of the 1940s and 50s, which fall directly into the era of film noir. - the main tent-pole of our opening - Other media texts include magazines and radio stations inspired by the period of the 1940s and 1950s, this includes titles such as 'Vogue', 'Vintage' 'Jackie' and 'Vintage Rock' magazines. On top of this our audience would be heavily influenced by such radio stations as 'The UK 1940s radio station' and the podcast 'Welcome to Night Vale', which has a similar style to a town radio popular at the time.
