The Importance in Costuming
Unfortunately, the human mind can be quite shallow. We are drawn to colorful images and beautiful things, which is what makes costuming and makeup so important in filmmaking. It makes a movie so much more enticing for the images on screen to be beautiful. For instance, in the production of Roar, all the makeup and vibrant clothing worn was completely what the video was meant to encompass. The abstract idea could not have been fulfilled without the crew behind the scenes. The video would have ultimately failed without this display of bright colors. In MASH as well, the movie wouldn't have flowed without the costuming set back in the 60's and army attire. It sets the tone of the film and also the time/ place. Another point that the article makes is making Audrey Hepburn as attractive as she can be. To pull in the audience, a key element is to make her as gorgeous as possible, so the viewers are thirsting for more, and wanting to watch. When setting up a film and different scenes, costuming is crucial.

You start with a statement and then don't talk anything about it...how does the fact that humans are shallow connect with the idea that costuming is important? What is Roar? And MASH? And what about Audrey Hepburn. Write as if your audience has no connection to your examples and be sure to explain them.
