Behind The Scenes Collaboration

My flatmate Jesse Hargrave is a 1st year film student who is creating a documentary for one of her university projects. She was very interested in my ideas when I was explaining the gothic horror project and the photoshoots and we decided to combine forces and create a behind-the-scenes video! We have arranged for Jesse and her course friend Faye to film me creating the makeup looks on both characters, film myself and Bronya (my assistant) set up the photography studio or following us on location and film the photoshoot itself. This will be a great video to add to my portfolio and will be a great demonstration of how I create the looks.

Unit 2 Evaluation

The most enjoyable part of the project for me was creating characters for a modern horror television show. The reason being is that I was able to have almost complete freedom to create whatever I like whilst incorporating sfx makeup. As well as the fact I was able to create ideas for a television show that I love! I found the research for my makeup designs very interesting this term as I had to create a background story for these characters and discover what their environments would be like, which then allowed me to create more detailed and accurate ideas for my designs that I was very happy with in the end. Following these two projects, I am very excited to further develop my special effects skills to refine them for future projects in university and beyond.

Overall, I personally feel the most successful part of my project was the character designs for the Walking Dead. Everything about the project engaged me so I really wanted to get stuck in and produce an excellent outcome. As I want to be a makeup designer and artist for television and film, the second project gave me an opportunity to be a part of this process. Compared to the first project, creating a character for Great Expectation, I feel I had a lot of freedom and did not have to stick to many guidelines (which allowed the whole project to be really creative and fun!). The final photos demonstrate my favourite makeup and hair work so far as I feel like they fit into the Walking Dead atmosphere very well. The final makeup went how I wanted on both days and I feel I executed them well apart from a handful of things I would’ve improved if I did it again, like the edges of the special effects applications. I also feel they are versatile and different from each other but still work together and within the television show which allowed me to show different makeup skills.

Mrs Laderman Final Images

To set the scene...

Following Mrs Laderman delivering a walker to Claudia, she is now on the run. She has no idea if Claudia will survive and come after her or if she is dead in her flat. But she is free, for now. She is starting her new life as Rose Laderman and whilst she is on the run, in and out of hiding places, she spots a group of people... A large group who have guns...cars...and children? They call for her to join them... she's officially free. (And she joins the current Walking Dead cast).

Claudia - Final Images

To set the scene...
Claudia applies her grease makeup on her eyes to prepare herself for her 'villainous' role in her veiled and psychotic lifestyle in her dark and isolated flat. She starts to devour her latest cannibalistic victim and the red blood starts to soak into her lips, adding to her Femme Fatale look. Knock. Knock. Knock. Mrs Laderman is early with her next victim. She hesitantly opens the front door as she hears moans and groans on the other side...

Mrs Laderman launches a walker upon Claudia as she opens the door and makes a run for a new life, away from the mental torture of Claudia. Before Claudia can realise what's happened, she's been bitten. She rips the walker off her and kills it, however, it's already too late...
