11/12/2020-11/13/2020---BONFIRE PARTY

 Welcome back to OBX SEASON 2---Shooting THURSDAY--FRIDAY,  NOV. 12TH AND 13TH!!  If you are new with OBX, this blog is where you will find out important information on what kind of costumes you should bring as a Background Actor on the show. 

Just a couple of housekeeping items to begin with......

-Please, be on time.  You will be checked in by the AD Department and fill out paperwork before we can look at you.  If you are late then the Costume Department does not get as much time to make sure you look great.  

-Always come dressed in your first, best choice of the descriptions for your character.   After reading the character descriptions that you will find here, make your best pick and wear it in.  However, you will ALWAYS be expected to bring multiple options with you so that we can make the final choices.  The final choices will be made by the Costume Dept.  Please respect that we have the overview of the day and the show, and do not complain about what we ask you to wear. Solid colors, wide stripes, plaids, and large scale prints are great! Some color is good, as long as it isnt super bright or neon. Please do not include items with narrow stripes, busy patterns, neons, glitter, sequins, expensive or special jewelry, uncomfortable shoes, and clothing with large logos & graphics/ trademarked characters (giant nike symbols, star wars tees, etc). On this particular show, simple logos are okay as long as it is mainly wording/ lettering/ phrases (not large pieces of artwork).

- It is MANDATORY that you read this blog before coming to work EVERY TIME YOU WORK.


Please read below for more information on what you should bring based on your character:

KOOK TEENS:
You are playing Preppy High School kids.  Some brands that work well for the Kook characters are Johnny O,  Vineyard Vines, Southern Tide, Ralph Lauren, Lily Pulitzer, Rainbows, & Sperrys. These are the most colorful characters on the show.

Guys- please bring polos, button down shirts, khakis and bright colored shorts, sneakers, loafers and Sperry type shoes. Patagonia jackets and vests for layers.  

Girls- please bring tanks, polos, pants, skirts, shorts, sundresses, rompers, light sweaters and layers... please keep them preppy and appropriate for school... sandals, sneakers and boat shoes and wear simple jewelry and accessories to compliment your outfit. 

POGUES TEENS:

Think skater and surfer kids in high school. You are the more bad kids in school. 

Guys- please bring tees, hoodies,  jean jackets, jeans, skate shorts,  cargo shorts, vans,  converse, layered jewelry and funky socks. All accessories and wardrobe personality are welcome!

Girls--are encouraged to dress just as funky and skater/outsider-ish... skirts and dresses are fine.  Layer them up with tights, grunge layers, light sweaters and boots... think Urban Outfitters.
