Hey everyone! First blog... bit late but going to update you with the madness of the 1st 2 weeks approximately!
Firstly; I'll introduce you to what I am creating for this project! Basically I was invited to work on a project with 3 of my university costume friends; Shelly Calvert (The effective founder of the project; she's got all the contacts!!), Charlotte Cutcher and Jennifer Ridge. Our project is to create 19th Century inspired costumes for each of the 4 band members; The Rileys! (4 of them, 4 of us!!) Therefore, we will each be designing and making a costume for 1 band member each! This sounds very convenient and easy.. however for this project the key thing regarding the success of it will be how we link them in to each other. We all have our ideas and styles but if we were to just design away, then make them without regular discussions, meetings, conversations about our designs, shopping trips together and fittings together; a positive outcome would not be the result as we would end up with 4 individual costumes for them; therefore not considering and linking them as a band!
This is something that we all agreed when First discussing the potential idea of the project must be a key and primary consideration constantly and throughout!
So now I have introduced you to the project you can follow the progress over the next weeks and see the process we go through to ensure the above and the process we go through linking it to this industry. My blog will also be very reflective and will discuss developments, problems and what I feel works and didn't work about the project perhaps! Also, i will discuss how i feel at various points into the project, so you can gain a real inside insight into our project; so keep watch!
Sorry for rambling on the first post, but I promise that generally the posts will be generally exclusing a few, relatively short but informative!!
