The Secret - Costume

As our storyline is based around a gay teenager we wanted to break the stereotype that has been created by society on the way homosexual men dress. Instead of having Will in stereotypical 'flamboyant' clothing we willl have him dressed in a modern teenagers everyday attire. This will consist of a hoodie and a pair of tracksuit bottoms, as this is a casual film based in Northern Ireland this is what teenagers would wear. 

 As this is set during the day, Taylor will be in his school shirt while the facetime call takes place. This emphasises the youth of the two boys as well as adding the modern twist on a typical romance film.

 Some images below are inspiring what our actors are going to wear.

The differentiation between scenes can be obvious but gentle like going dead black at the end of one scene and fading from black in the second scene....
