A Canadian Aviary: Costume Designs for “The Bird”s (BDA_CA07) |
||||
|
The Birds was used as the basis of a term design project for senior
Costume Design students. The group was asked to collect images of avian
and human subjects that reflected both sides of the Birds cast of
characters. Research was carried out about the birds that would have
inhabited Greece in Aristophanes time. The students were also asked to
investigate the historical use of animal costumes and their relationship
to ritual and comedy. Their source books served as a basis for the
design development. The brief was to create a set of costumes for the
play that relate human body movement and human behavior to the physical
and behavioural characteristics of all types of birds. The setting and
time period was of their own choice. |
