My project is inspired by the cartoon Scooby Doo. This classic children's mystery show is full of ghosts and monsters. The gang always get caught up in spooky situations and have to wonder round dark, mysterious, strange places solving mysteries. This is the premise for my project. I want to explore the layers of the show, for example the characters, the locations, the costumes, the plot, and of course the monsters. I will reflect my research through zines. I want to create a film with similar aesthetics to the short fashion film Wes Anderson made for Prada and the concept of scooby doo. The visuals and aesthetic of the film will be more important than a plot but I will have some dialogue. I want to carefully plan my film so it is executed nicely. I want to scout good locations so that it looks genuine and has a real spooky feel. The styling will of course be one of the most important aspects. I think it will be interesting to combine a range of vintage and modern clothes. I do not want to identically copy the characters in the shows outfits rather create my own interpretation, potentially create new characters who are based loosely on the ones from the show. I plan to create props and sets for the film because I think this will be an interesting experiment as it is something I’ve not attempted. Some ideas I have for this so far include painting back drops and building miniatures. Besides having a fashion film for my final outcome I would also like to have a poster to accompany it.
