Alice - In terms of costume, Alice is typically shown wearing a pale blue dress, a pristine white pinafore and a large black bow in her long blond hair. In common depictions, Alice is portrayed as an innocent and vulnerable young girl who enjoys life, but due to the surrealist feel of our music, video and promotional package, we want to make her almost malicious - innocence gone wrong. Our aim is to make the themes and characters obvious, but with our own stamp on them.
"The tale plays with logic in ways that have given the story lasting popularity"
"It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense"
Although we want to capture the essence of the story and themes, we don't want our project to end up a complete copy of it. We plan to do this by inputting our own feel to it, by using the inspiration as a starting point. An example of this is the recent movie 'Malice in Wonderland' which is a London gangster movie with a twist - all of the people in it are representative of different characters from Alice in Wonderland, for example, the white rabbit is a man in a drug deal, and the Queen of Hearts is the owner of a strip club. This is an extremely clever film, and has recieved gleaming reviews for its imaginative perception of the timeless classic.
