Costume Analysis - Batman
In our film, we have made the decision to make our main character wear a suit for numerous diverse reasons, one of the main factors in making this decision was that we wanted our character to come across as a wealthy family man to show that no matter how good your life situation is you can still fall victim to life's evils such as paranoia. Furthermore, we wanted our character to be relatable to our audience and office jobs make up a large percentage of the current populations work.
We took inspiration from numerous films including Batman where Bruce Wayne is the most decorated character and wears suits to show his wealth and everyday lifestyle before he becomes Batman when needed. The appeal of this is that the audience believe that every individual has the ability deep down to save lives and change the world, consequently making a personal connection to the character.
Another role we had to fill was the villain who in our case was a prisoner on the loose who the main character, our main in the suit, believed was doing the frightening duty of following the villain around and scaring him. We chose that our prisoner should have the costume of Black t-shirt/vest and Black trousers in order to give the instantaneous view that he has a dark personality which is associated with numerous criminals or potentially harmful people. One of the Shows we took inspiration from was Bates Motel.
