Sam taught a day on Costume Design, stressing how for costume designers, every clothing choice must reveal something about the character. We learn a lot more than we realize just by looking at how a character (or any person) is dressed!
Nutmeg was very happy while Sam was teaching. He kept hopping in circles around Sam's legs.
Finally Sam had to pet him.
Sam drew two character outlines and had the children draw in costumes to fit a specific character profile which he gave them. They had to justify how their clothing choices showed various aspects of that character's personality. It was fun to see what they came up with!
Malachi, Daisy, Malachi
Junie
Seb
Abe
Sam chose one of the designs (Malachi's) to paint over and make more realistic. I love how it turned out!
