Costume & Design
Every samba school works throughout the year re-inventing it's visual elements to fit their annual
Carnival theme, including costume designs, float design, prop construction and more. Our costume
includes white trousers and shoes in the tradition of the Rio samba schools.
Carnival Design
The School's annual theme is realised through all its costumes and visual elements. Co-ordinating
these elements is a role traditionally performed by the School's 'Carnavalesco', or Carnival Director.
The School does not yet have a Carnavalesco for 2012 so if you have had, or would like to gain, experience in creating our carnival theme, please contact us.
Costume
The Brighton School of Samba aims to have several Ala's (sections) on parade in 2012 including:
- Porta Bandeira and Mestre Sala (2)
- Ala Commissao de Frente (4)
- Ala Baiana (6)
- Ala Bateria (50)
- Puxadores (2)
- Ala Passista (30)
- Ala Mirim (10)
There are also individual costumes to be designed and made, such as the Porta Bandeira, Rainha da Bateria and Mestre Sala. If you would like to be involved in the design and creation of the School's costumes for 2012, please email us at info@brightonschoolofsamba.org.uk
