Carnival mise-en-scene research

After conducting our focus group, we found that after hearing our song choice many of the group found that it made them think of a carnival or fair ground theme. Therefore we are looking at possibly dressing some of the cast in carnival themed dress.

A good example of what we were thinking of is in the David Bowie film 'Labyrinth', but more carnival less goblin.

The masquerade theme would fit well with the opening sound that sounds like a fair ground / carnival. However we feel that it would be difficult to set it at a fair ground because of our other idea of having our main character dancing in a club. So by having a masquerade theme in the video it fits both ways. There's more of the carnival example in the video below which is also from Labyrinth.
