Heya folks,
So for a little recap, if you recall, in my previous post I announced the super cool news that first of all Simshar the Movie is about to be released..and there’s a fun premiere full of glitzy stuff happening on the 27th April….follow the link at the end of the post to buy your tickets...... AND I’m the official fashion&style blogger on the night and in these weeks leading up to the event...fun times!
So let me tell you a bit about how this last bit is going to work - in the weeks leading up to the event I am going to learn, (and pass on what I’m learning back to you) about costume&fashion, in relation to film. Whilst I’ve worked in styling for TV programmes and TV series… a film is a whole new ballpark were all the clothes are referred to as ‘Costumes’ and as you can imagine, these differ enormously from one production to another, ranging from contemporary urban fashion, to of course, the more traditional outfits and ball-gowns.
To understand the magnitude of this task, you must realize how integral Costume design is in defining the overall ‘look’ of the movie; it provides the audience with information about the culture and society the characters inhabit and their character traits, everything has to 'fit' and make sense according to what we are learning about the character if you know what I mean..
To learn something more about all of this I am going to be interviewing both Ernest Camilleri; one of Malta’s top Costume Designers; who was responsible for designing, creating, acquiring and hiring all costumes for Actors and extras in the movie and Rebecca Cremona; the movie’s director; to find out what her perspective is about all of this.
Thennnnnn we’re also going to be meeting the film’s leading lady - Clare Agius and also Antonella Axisa, who plays a supporting role, and I will be asking both of them about what acting in the movie and wearing such a selection of costumes felt like and their overall experience.
Last but defo not least, in these interviews I am going to be asking all these people for info about what they’re wearing to the PREMIERE NIGHT...the news along the grapevine is that certain high profile Maltese designers have come on board to design something extra special for Claire, Rebecca, Antonella and Angelique.
