Adaption:

          The screenplay I read was Devils Wear Prada, and I was amazed at the detail in the script. One could visualize the transitions and envision what the outfits could look like. I would choose to be the costume designer for this film is so focused on the fashion. I would enjoy researching what was in the latest shows at the time, the main pieces of fashion, and take inspiration from that. I love the juxtaposition of Andy at the beginning of the film compared to the other models of high fashion at the company. Looking at the screenplay from an actor’s point of view, I can see the how relatable Andy is without seeing a performance. The way her lines and actions are described, I see how audience members would instantly fall for her and care about her as a character. I find that pretty cool, and with a good performance from the actress, this can only enhance the movie’s enjoyment.
