Costume preparation

As my role in the production of the opening title sequence involves mise en scene I was responsible for organising costume. As I am going to be playing the detective I am able to use my own clothes for the costume. Below is a picture of the shirt we are going to use. As we are sticking to some conventions of noir we need a shirt which is formal and can be adjusted to look messy. The tie which can be seen in the picture is also going to act as a crucial piece of  costume to project the quintessential stereotype of the antihero. Going by our story board we do not have a lot of shots which include the integrity of the subject so I plan to wear dark jeans in addition to the shirt.
