Costume and Props

As I am doing a James Bay song, I'm really wanting to go for the James Bay indie pop style and look in terms of costumes and props. If you don't know who James Bay is here are a few images of him and his kind of style:  

 

I wanted my main actor Ben to have the same sort of style as James (but without the hat) and to also reflect the mood of the song I asked him to come in a dark long sleeved shirt and dark jeans. For my other actor Rhiann, I also asked her to wear dark clothes to again fit the mood of the song. In terms of props there were only two specific props that were needed for the whole shoot. A guitar and a photograph of Rhiann and Ben. On the back of the photo the words 'I love you' were written along with the date the photo was supposedly taken- as the two were meant to be recently broken up couple. The guitar was only really there for dramatic effect and to fit in with the indie genre conventions of low budget props. I also just kind of liked the musical vibe it gave off!
