For our media project we recreated a scene from Victorious (S2E5) and used CLAMPS to make it like the original. For costume we matched the characters’ colours as accurately as possible, with one character in purple, another in brown and another in black and blue. The lighting was bright to keep the vibrant, colourful style. As actors we copied expressions and how lines were delivered. For make-up we tried to match the characters’ look so it felt realistic. We added props like a poster, a folder and bags. The setting was at the lockers, like in the episode.
