In this period set horror short, our small cast needed to communicate the distinct nature of their character's personalities in presence alone. Wardrobe curation and image composition were key in illustrating an easily digestible on screen presentation.
Intent on capturing the spirit and glow of youthful innocence, our lead is bright-eyed and rosy-cheeked; dressed in unblemished white. While finding a voice of maturity in her world-worn counterpart, he is lightly groomed, simply dressed, and given an air of practicality set within the 1950s time capsule this short film is presented in.
In stark contrast, our antagonist is bandaged, filthy, and the embodiment of lumbering brutality. Intimidating, to be sure, our adversary is an alarming expression of the squalid violence he intends to inflict upon our leads.
