Planning: Costume for Performer

Acoustic artists tend to have a very individual style, however still not going overboard with the clothes they were, they keep their style simple- making sure all the focus is on the music being played and the instrument they are playing. Compared to other performers in other genres such as rock and pop, who make statements with the clothing they wear, acoustic artists make statements with their music, and so don't dress themselves up in expensive clothes and accessories/ costumes.  Acoustic artists tend to express themselves through their music not through fashions or other outlets.

For our promo we will be following this style, keeping the costume of the performer very simple and understated, with a simple t-shirt/ jumper and a pair of jeans, so that we make sure the main focus is being kept on the song.

A plain coloured jumper will mean that all of the focus will be on the instrument being held, as this will be the object that stands out in the shot.

A checkered shirt as seen worn by acoustic artists a bit and so it will be helpful to consider when planning the costume as it will follow the usual conventions of an accoustic music promo.

A simple pair of jeans will work well with the rest of the costume for the performers and suits the genre well, as they give a very casual and relaxed feel.
