2. Conventions
After researching the
make up in our
‘inspiration’ trailers, I’ve
devised a mood board of
the type of make up we
will be going for; both
‘normal’ and special
effect.
3. Standard Make Up
I will be the only person in
the film wearing ‘everyday’
makeup; Harry as a male
does not need any (this will
contribute to the realism)
The look I have gone for is
very natural, as most
teenagers in 2008 wore
natural-looking makeup as
an every day look
Lavish make-up in the
opening scenes would take
away from the realistic
effect that we are trying to
create.
4. ‘Special Effects’ Make Up
Both Harry and I would have
special effects makeup in
the full film, but for the
trailer, I will be the only one
seen with special effects
make-up on.
I will use fake blood to draw
a pentagram (a demonic
symbol) on my arm in one
shot in the trailer.
In the full film, I would plan
on a lot more fake blood and
injuries, as well as dark
shading under the eyes and
the cheekbones and contact
lenses to give an overall
‘creepy’ effect to the face
5. Ancillary Products
We have not decided exactly which of the two products I
will feature in: the magazine cover or the poster, but in
whichever I feature, I will be wearing natural makeup.
I have an idea to edit special effects make up over my
natural look on Photoshop., for example a demonic
pentagram that looks cut onto my face. The picture of me
will probably feature false tears as well.
The other ancillary product will feature Harry, who, as I
stated before, will wear no make up. We are yet to decide
whether he will have special effects make up added in the
post-production process.
