Theoretical rojects that I've made during my studies at Edinburgh College between 2021 and 2023.
My most recent attempt to create costume designs for a theoretical project. My chosen script was the Forbidden Planet from 1956 by placing the story of the two astronaut teams into the 1960s and 1980s. The only female character of the story was born on this Earth-like alien planet which was an interesting mind-game in the proccess as I had to think of the brain with a person who's never been to Earth, only heard stories from her father and only had access to very old worn garments and the products of the robot of the story. The biggest limitation was the pre-set budget (£500) that made some of the costumes less ambitious than they could have been.
I made these costume designs in my first year at Edinburgh College. I have chosen this play from a range of options, and I had a great fun with it. My tutor was Anya Glinski who made me very interested in the designing aspect of creative work, and taught me a lot about the psychology behind the look of the characters.
The theoretical budget for three characters in this play was £500.
