Character development through costume design

http://www.swide.com/art-culture/wes-anderson-fashion-style-tips-from-his-movies-and-characters/2014/03/11

1. The first part of creating the visual style is with costumes. It is important to have a color palette planned out for a film. These are some examples of cohesive colors from Wes Anderson films that we are getting inspiration from: 
Since our short film has themes of loneliness and isolation we decided to go with a grey color palette for the android boy. 
The android girl is a confident, lively character so we want her to be the complete opposite of android boy, she is proud of who she is and will be in bright colors

2. Next is to choose a key accessory that makes an impact to attach to a character. This can say a lot about them and when people see the item in other places it makes them think of the character.

3. Hats, glasses, coats or uniform are good key accessories for #2.

4. Accesores with a strong color that contrasts with their outfit is a good choice. Also, clothing with interesting textures or patterns work well.
