Ideas of Mise-en-Scene for my Music Video: Costume for my Main Character

After I have considered casting and location, I can now move on and consider the mise-en-scene of my music video. These are the elements that make up my music video and helps portray the right images of the song to the audience.

Costumes

Main Female Character (Ellie): I have decided to dress my main female character in a dress to portray the idea of a little girl in my music video as you would associate the girl dressed in a dress. I would also have her dressed in a colourful dress to emphasize the mood of happiness and atmosphere of the song. I have also decided to have her wearing some colourful dolly shoes to also emphasize the image of the little girl. As I want her look to be natural and simple as it is portraying the image of a girl, I would also have her hair down and wearing no jewellery as it would be too much.

These are the clothing and shoes that I am thinking of for Ellie to wear as my main character:


I will ask my main atress if she own anything similiar to these clothing and if she could wear it throughout the filming process. If she does not have any of the similair clothing then I would buy the dress and the shoes as I like my idea of the mise-en-scene for my character and do nto wnat to change it.

I would also need to inform my actress than her hair should be staright and down and also her make-up would need to be subtle to create that natural and simplistic image that I am trying to portray in my music video. Also I would need to tell her that this image of her would need to be the same in every filming that I do to make sure that my final music video would make sense to my audience.
