Elevator Pitch -- Costume Design

For Friday, you need to complete your ideas for a Costume Design. Using your sketch book, you should have a detailed sketch that outlines the following:

Your costume should:

• Show the details of your design, including hair & make-up
• Meet the requirements of the script
• Give hints to the audience about the character and his/her personality
• Utilize the Director's Concept -- TRANSFORMING the MUNDANE TO MAGICAL! 
• Incorporate meaningful Design Elements (colors, lines, patterns, shapes, fit) 
• Be practical.  We can actually find the materials to make/build the costume. 
• Be safe for the actor to use. 

Elevator Pitch: Link to worksheet

On Friday, each designer will have the amount of time it takes to leave the classroom, go down the elevator to the first floor and return to the classroom to explain your concept for the costume production. The director will ask you the following questions: 

• Describe the design & your intentions as a designer. How have you used inspiration from visual research?
•  What are the elements of your design? Why did you choose to use these design elements? How do these give clues about your character?
• How does your design meet the requirements of the script/story and the character?
• How does your design meet the requirements from the Director? (Director’s Concept “Transforming the Mundane to Magical”?)
• How are you planning on making this piece?
• What materials will you need? How will we get these materials?
• How are you ensuring safety of the actors?
• Are there any limitations you have due to time or budget?
• Other questions or concerns?
