Ensemble Costume Design!

Today we figured out costumes to support our masks and the story we are creating! After agreeing on the palette for our world, Joseph (costume designer), Casey (assistant costume designer), myself (director) and Mary (the stage-manager) pulled a few things for each character. When that person came in for their fitting and tried something on, they could say "Hate" and then that thing would automatically be thrown out. They only had this veto power once and no one every used it. From there we would all rate the costume 1-10 according to character, world, story, and support for and movement in the mask. If we all rated a 7 or higher we used that costume as our base. If not, we went back to the shop and tried something new. Here is what we came up with:

The Queen

 
 


The Duke


The Old Lady
The Royal Daughters


The Prince
The Town's  Protector

The Dutchess & Town Gossip
The Sorceress Sisters


The Town Drunk
The Jester & Knight


The Awesome Stage Manager, Mary Wildsmith
