Today Kim came into our lesson to show us and help us to make our ties for school uniform costume, which was made out of colleron. Kim cut us a strip of it so we then had to draw a template design on it to cut out, making sure it wasn't going to be too big to tie when we cut it, but making sure that it was still a bigger size than normal because the idea was that they were supposed to be comical.We all made a tie out of this material so that we would all have the same type of tie and make it more believable for the audience to think that we all came from the same school, therefor making it a lot better for the audience to enjoy watching. To stop it from being impossible to put on I made the bit that would be going round my neck thinner than everyone else's because I knew that it would be difficult to tie otherwise. After we had cut them out we painted them black and purple because that was the colour we decided as a class to keep the colour scheme to.
After the paint had dried and we had added another layer and used them a few times we noticed that the paint had started peeling and cracking off the ties, this made them look tacky and unprofessional so wi thought we would have a look on amazon for some ties and luckily we found the same ties we had made pretty much for £5 so we're going to get them because they look a lot better than the ones we originally made.
