Costume

Keeping a fine balance between all elements of mise en scene, we did a little planning on our character's costume too. Since our character expresses restlessness and has gone astray, we believe color psychology would in some way help us convey our message too. Therefore, we didn't choose a fancy attire, but rather an earthy toned dressing. We have used Aurora herself in Runaway as an inspiration. We have somewhat followed her conventions along with 'Colors by Halsey'. Both artists have used colors like blue and grey which adds a gloomy effect that we plan to create. Thus, we are taking their videos into consideration while planning ours,

Permission Proposal

My group members and I have decided to exhibit our product under a rightful and legal way. Therefore, we've decided on writing a permission proposal to Aurora. Here is a copy of our letter. 

The beginning of Advanced Portfolio

With constant reminder of the upcoming deadlines, it seems proper to no longer delay the initiation of our Advanced Portfolio and pull up our socks. After a long discussion with my group, we all settled to shoot our video on the slow paced, but not at all monotonous song Runaway by Aurora. Unlike the original video,we plan to build a framework of four different seasons as we believe the constant shift in the setting will grasp the attention of the viewers. Our strategy also includes a flight to our heroine's memory; there will be a switch between past and present, as well as illusions. To pull it off, we will soon, be beginning our research and plan phase started.

Here is a link to Aurora's Runaway.
