Main Task - Costumes Used

During the production our Protagonist, Cole Kelso, played by Graham Hewitt wore the following costume:


  • Crisp White Shirt
  • Plain Black suit jacket
  • Skinny black tie
  • Smart Black trousers to match suit jacket
  • Smart shoes
The clothing was all worn in a 'scruffy' way in order to show the character to be in a mess of a mental state, obviously not caring about what he looks like. However, the clothes also indicate that he is quite wealthy, and if he were at his best, could look quite smart, giving an impression of a slightly upper class character. The fact that the shirt is crisp & white, although scruffy, is an example of how the costume portrays 2 facets of Kelso's recent life. The portrayal of both of these is vital in assuring the audiences understanding of the character.

All costume components were slightly old in comparison to the modern style alternative of each component. We did this in order to authenticate the mise-en-scène we were trying to achieve.
