For this new thriller film their going to be very few outfits used when filming. The main outfit that is going to be used is a normal KFC workers outfit for both the protagonist and the antagonist because the plot twist in this film is that they are both the same person like the Fight Club characters; Jack and Tyler Durden. So other outfits won’t be used in the film but they will be some minor changes to the characters outfit.
First we are going to be talking about is the first character in this film called Kyle Hawking. Kyle Hawking is going to be protagonist in the film. The audience is going to be watching him, while he tries to remember what happened to him and who is the strange overseer watching his every move and communicating to him through an old fashion phone. Kyle is going to portray the total opposite to Wade meaning he is going to be scruffy, timid, dependent and humble. His clothes will mainly represent his personality, social groups, wealth and class.
The antagonist for this film is going to be a character called Wade. Wade is going to be the one watching Kyle acting as the overseer while only communicating to Kyle through the old fashioned telephone that I talked about early. Wade is going to be the main one in control through this small film by controlling Kyle as well as the one who kidnapped Kyle. Wade personality is going to be the opposite of Kyle by having him more demanding, assertive and definitely more spontaneous than the timid Kyle. His clothes will mainly represent his personality, social groups, wealth and class.
Examples of famous movies with characters who have a split personality
As I have said before there won’t be many outfits used when filming but we will include subtle changes between Kyle and Wade so the audience still remember there the same person but are different sides of the same coin. But we don’t want to change to much so some audience members think that Wade is an evil co-worker.
First change between the two character is that Kyle is going to have his shirt tucked into his trouser this can show many things for example.

This shows his personality trait of being timid and reserved because if he didn’t it will most likely draw attention from the customers at KFC rather than blending in.

· It also shows he is confident and is more of a follower because it’s the company policy to tuck the shirt in.
· The colour of his red shirt can represent madness because technically he is mad by having this split personality called Wade.
Wade shirt is going to be much different for example.
· The colour of his red shirt can also represent more things about the character such as danger; rebellious as well as courage this symbolism represents Wade personality perfectly.
· KFC Shirt is untucked meaning that he is breaking company policy so showing he is rebellious as well as courageous.
· The shirt will be loosely buttoned showing more of how rebellious the character is.
The shoes are going to be a smart pair of black shoes like for example a pair of oxfords below
One other change between the two characters is their hair cut. First Wade’s haircut will look a bit like the haircut on the left showing that he is carefree like the split personality in Fight Club, while Kyle’s hair cut on the right shows he likes to look respectful at work.
Now below is a formal prop schedule which will let actors know what to wear and when. Thankfully we only have one outfit that the actors will need to wear.
The next post will be prop research and props.
