Costume Planning (1)

Since we have two characters only, the importance of costume design is amplified, we were unsure of who to base our character's costume of. We were also limited by what is available. This is because Doha has no costume shops and it was especially difficult to get costume parts such as a poncho, which is a very conventional western piece of clothing. 

As a group we discussed basing Ringo's costume off of John Marston from the Red Dead Redemption, though we could not as we decided to make our film introduction more futuristic. Though we've decided to carry on the color scheme, though simply make the clothing more advanced and fitting for a sci-fi western.

 So, in the end, we believe  the image above most accurately presents what we had in mind in terms of costume for Jesse Ringo, as well as Bill Greaves, though the color scheme would be different for the both in order to make a fine separation between good and evil. It is especially difficult to research costume designs for reference as not many sci-fi western movies exist. I think that Jesse Ringo should look more rugged which shows that he is evil, I also would prefer Greaves to not look like a conventional hero, more like an anti-hero. This is to perhaps confuse the audience, and to introduce the characters as neutral at first, which may draw audiences in as to why they are having a stand-off.
