Journal Assignment

More than sets and lights, costume design not only helps to tell the story, but also gives us insight into the individual characters (without them ever having to speak).  A character's costume may indicate gender, position and status, occupation, occasion, and personality (modesty, flamboyance, independence, etc.) - the "essence" of that character.

For this Journal Assignment...

· find an image or link of a play, film or television show

· select a character

· and discuss what the costume design tells the viewer about that character

  The Journal Assignment should be one page long, approximately 350-400 words minimum.  Be careful of spelling, grammar, capitalization, and punctuation...proofread and edit your work as necessary.  Please cite your sources.
