Push to Start

Push to Start follows two parallel narratives, combining elements of comedy and tension to showcase character - driven dialogue and situational irony.

Elena's white top and high-waisted pants bring a sense of calmness and purity to the scene, enhancing her role as the grounded, relatable character. The light colors serve as a contrast to Todd’s more muted tones, positioning her as the moral anchor in the situation. White is often associated with clarity and innocence, emphasizing her position as the more level-headed and empathetic character.

Todds neutral-toned grey sweatshirt and light jeans continue to play into his persona of being approachable yet trying to assert control. The simplicity of his outfit shows his desire to keep things low-key, but his clothing choices lack the boldness of a character fully owning their authority. It's a subtle sign of his inner tension, where he wants to appear calm, but his lack of confidence in the situation shows through.

Both Jamie and Dwayne’s outfits are designed to reflect their gritty, street-level criminal personas. They both wear dark, utilitarian jackets and neutral-colored pants, signaling their no-nonsense approach to their criminal activity. Dwayne’s plaid brown jacket with a shearling collar adds a sense of ruggedness and authority, while Jamie’s dark jacket feels slightly more relaxed, conveying his less controlled, more clumsy nature.
