Benedick Film Techniques
All the costumes in this production fit the era properly, from the tight, skin-showing clothing all the way to Benedick’s costume at the party to Hero’s big puffy wedding gown.
The lighting was a major element in this production. It, along with the music, helped deepen the emotions portrayed by the cast members. For example, the dim purple lights during the parties for Hero and Claudio made it easy to see they were in a club or a bar. The characters and the music gave off the energy that would actually be felt if they were in an actual club or bar.

Eventually, once he learned the truth, he was overjoyed that Hero did not do him wrong like he previously believed. Since she really was not dead, he was still able to marry her.
Leonato was a generous man. He opened his home and catered to the men from the Navy. He willingly gave his daughter to one of the men. Leonato’s changed after Claudio accused Hero of being unfaithful and not remaining chastity. He became enraged at his daughter’s actions. Once he learned the truth, he forgave his daughter and somewhat got revenge on Claudio.
Don Pedro is the commander of the Navy men staying at Leonato’s house. He played a part in Claudio and Hero getting married. He also helped Beatrice and Benedick to realize their love for one another. Don Pedro can be a helpful man, even when other people do not want his help. For example, Don Pedro went to ask Hero to marry Claudio without Claudio knowing. Claudio saw Don Pedro leave the room with Hero, which made him believe that Don Pedro betrayed
