My presentation on Costume, hair and make up

2. • It is very important to apply costumes, hair
styles and make up to characters in a film as it
gives the audience a sense of background in
terms of characters and when the events in
the movie take place.

4. Rorschach - Watchmen
• The suit this character wears tells the
audience that he is a rather secretive
character and that his main job is to
gather info in any way possible, this is
due to the fact that he seems to wear
the type of hat most detectives wear,
along with an equally similar
overcoat.
• The gloves he wears indicate that he
wishes to leave no trace of his
existence wherever he goes.
• His mask completes his look as it
leaves the audience to wonder who
he really is and what his intentions
and inspirations are. It tells us just
how mysterious he is in terms of the
movie and comic’s plot.

5. Rick Sanchez – Rick And Morty
• This particular character is
dressed the way you would
expect a doctor or scientist to
dress, a lab coat, a T-shirt
underneath it and of course,
casual trousers.
• However, the one thing that
causes Rick to stand out from
all the other doctors we know
is the fact that we see him
with a canteen, suggesting
he’s an alcoholic. Along with
this, his messy blue hair
suggests that his methods
and attitude may be rather
wild.

6. Liv - iZombie
• The character design of Liv in the
first picture shows her as a rather
casual, modern looking adult who
seems to be wearing some sort of
coat, possibly suggesting that she
deals with some rather nasty
moments in her career. The make
up used around her eyes is rather
bruise looking, suggesting that she
may have been wounded earlier on.
• The second picture we see of her is
the same, however, her eyes seem
to be blood red and the colour
around her pupils seems to have
gone from a spinach green to a
mustard yellow. This causes her to
look rather murderous and savage
and tells the audience she may get
rather crazy or even snap out of her
normal state and into a horrifying,
murderous mess.
