The costume was probably one of the most important factors to create the sense of verisimilitude within the film opening. We decided to go with the typical zombie survivors costume that is a regular theme within most zombie films. Torn shirts, with blood stains and blood stains on the faces of the characters.
It was easy enough to create the costume, all we did was got some cheap plain t-shirts, covered them in fake blood and dirtied them with shoe polish and then tore them up with a pair of scissors. The costume is very effective, and was very easy to create even with a low budget.
Both characters also wore jeans as part of the costume, this was because it would create verisimilitude, as they were just 'everyday people' before the zombie infection spreaded.
The reason for having plain white t-shirts was because, it links in with Propp's theory of the hero characters to be dressed in light clothing.
