Costume research

2. Basketball jerseys and shorts are
predominant costume choices in big
basketball movies.
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)
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

3. Shoes/Trainers specifically for basketball include
ankle support, and the bottom of the heels are
very thick for to support the consistent jumping
which comes in playing basketball. Particular
trainers like this are predominant costume
choices in big basketball movies, for example in
‘The White Shadow’.
This may also bring budget expenses, however
we may consider using normal trainers as we all
have a pair, assumingly.
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.
