The document discusses costume options for a basketball film on a limited budget. It proposes using school jerseys instead of purchasing new jerseys to save money. Alternative options discussed include using common clothing items like Nike shorts, sweatshirts, and normal trainers that cast and crew would already own instead of buying new clothing. The goal is to choose costumes that conform to typical basketball films but don't require additional expenses beyond what is already available.

2. Specific jersey types may include the use of the woven polyester which
we would want for levels of comfort for the actors, and preferably the
basketball team name printed on it. This may arouse budget expenses,
however we may consider using our alternatives to avoid this (e.g.
school jerseys). We may be choosing to use school jerseys to avoid
wasting time on purchasing and waiting for them. We also are going to
have an alternative costume of black Nike shorts worn by both of our
chosen actors ( This is the brand seen in most basketball movies so we
are conforming to this) and one will be wearing a plain black and the
other will be wearing plain white – this is purposefully done as a
foreshadowing , black being the color of death and white of innocence .
Costume choices may also include comfortable clothing. In this
example of ‘Rebound’, the actor is wearing a sweatshirt with a
standard cotton top. This may not be much of a problem in
terms of acquiring these costumes because a majority of
people have comfortable clothes as such, assumingly. This
makes it easy for us to use this as a prime costume choice,
however we will be focusing on if we believe having this is
relevant .

3. Predominant trainers with brands are very
popular in some basketball movies. This may
also bring budget expenses, however we may
consider using normal trainers as we all have
a pair, assumingly. This allows us to avoid
adding to the ‘non-existent budget’ and easily
make our costume choices viable to
accommodate everyone.
SUMMARY:
From my research, I can determine that our main hurdle is the budget. We can use the
alternative of the school jerseys of the boys team, however other problems arise, for
example; size, use, if they’re clean, specific colors, etc.
We have decided to possibly buy shorts of the same color, and use the school jerseys – as
a back up. We will be aiming to use new jerseys, but this will not be for definite, so we
will be holding the school jerseys at hand.

4. Costume choices are quite limited for funerals because
traditionally people wear black at funerals. This may arouse
budget expenses, however we may consider using our
alternatives to avoid this as we have discussed and we all
have a dress code of full black. This means that we will not
need to spend money on buying suits and dresses.
