Costume Planning Analysis (Bomber Jacket)


The black bomber jacket represents the bottom of the scale as the main protagonist could not sink any lower than being in a blood and money-hungry gang that would murder any innocents to gain what they feel will benefit their lifestyles and this adds to the overall atmosphere of the"Split" movie as it adds to the grittiness and violent nature of the movie since no main protagonist could be completely perfect and all lead characters must be flawed in a single way or more than one and this is what we tried to go for with Bradley Keano as the audience could interpret him as a person who had different motives in a gang which had different personalities to him but he realizes this, at a late time, and will find it difficult to leave the gang since once you are committed to a gang, the other members would expect you to always follow their code of honor and to never betray them so it also adds to the element of suspense and surprise in the movie.

Furthermore, this also represents the dark nature of the protagonist and the gang itself which means that it also adds to the character of Bradley Keano since we did not want a one-dimensional lead character in the movie so we had decided to add different lifestyles to widen the ways in which the "Split" storyline can branch out and how his character can be portrayed by the audience since a lead character that can have various interpretations is better than a lead character only being interpreted as either a villain or a heroic person since the audience could interpret the character as being a villain in his early days but attempting to turn over a new leaf or a good character that was lost in a world in which he was unable to mold with so he tries his hardest to escape his past. It follows the same "person who tries to leave his past and create a good life while he can" type of storyline that is added in most of the drama movies yet this storyline structure can be described as much more varied in comparison to the likes of Shank and Anuvahood.
