Costumes

When I got to this stage of my planning and research, I decided to move away from having a male actor in the music video. I thought of other creative ways to filmmaking my music video more abstract and not a cliche story.

MAKE-UP PRACTICE

As I enjoy apply make-up to friends, I believe I will be able to create realism to my character and my music video.

This make-up is the make-up I will be using for the scenes which my main talent - Jodee Evens - will be acting in streets and in the bedroom when waking up. The dark under eyes were created in this sequence below                                                                                                                

Begin with simple make-up (foundation and mascara) 

                                                    

With this thick eye shadow pencil I then draw across my top eye lids and corners of my eye                                                                                      

                                                  

From the eyeshadow pencil to make the eyes stand out more, I applied this grey eye shadow powder on my top eye lid.

                                                   

After creating a darker look to the top of my eye lids, I wanted to look very drained and tired, so i also applied the eyeshadow power to beneath my eyes to create "bags" 

I Then smudged the eye shadow so I would have no harsh lines making my make-up not look realistic. 

This Look will hopefully create realsim to my music video and I feel that this make-up look for tired eyes looks effective from my final outcome to the image above.  

Dark Eyes/Scary make-up 

This dark eye look will be used in close ups when Jodee will be acting in the studio. These dark smokey eye make-up was created in this sequence below.

From the tired make-up look(above this sequence of images) I used the eyeshadow pencil again but all the way around my eyes to make them stand out. 

When I had finished going around my eyes with the eyeshadow pencil, I used the eye shadow powder again on my eye lids, however I went higher up to my eyebrow to create depth.

I  Then went on to use the eye shadow powder, however I used a small blusher brush and began to develop dark tones in the dips of my face as seen below. 

       

When I had completed using the eye shadow on the dips of my face, I got a dark lipstick and put it on my lips, I then smudged it as during my video, I want my main talent to smudge her make-up as I feel this would be a creative close-up to shoot. 

Final outcome 

I believe with a black and white effect when I come to edit my music video, this make-up will look creative and scary which will allow my music video to look professional.

Costumes

These costumes were planned out in the prezi file at the top of this post. I have used a white t-shit throughout my music video as this allows me to have continuity in my music video and allows the fact my main talent is "good" in the end to be represented through as she hides her innocence behind the leather jacket.
