Costume Design - Jim

 

For Jim's character we have chosen a more smart, business-like jacket, which makes him seem more professional and perhaps in a more honest job. Our actor for the character has quite an ectomorphic anatmony and this jacket brings out his slender frame.This body form is important for the character as it shows that he is not a field operative, but would rather work behind a desk, making the mission seem easy and quite hard to go wrong, exaggerating the impact when it does go wrong. The costume also suits his character as he cares about his appearance a lot, which conforms to the conventions of a good character (but in this case not neccessarily the protagonist). The jacket doesn't boast the characters strength or muscle, but his delicate, slender form. The actor also has a thin face, culminating in a pointy chin, so isn't the sort of face that would go with a rough field agent.
