Thursay 3rd November 2011, Horror photo shoot...

In today's lesson we had a make-up artist come in and teach us all how to make fake wounds and scary looking faces for halloween using various materials such as face paint, gelatine, chocolate sauce and red food colouring for bloody wounds.

We then got into pairs and took it in turn to do each others make-up and make fake wounds. I worked with Corey, He didn't want much make-up putting on his face so i just mixed up a bit of red food colouring with chocolate sauce to make some fake blood and i carefully dripped it onto his neck in straight lines which made it look like he had been badly injured ready for the horror photo shoot.

Corey then did my make-up. He painted my face white and gave me two black eyes using a red and grey face paint and a sponge to apply it to my face. He also painted the middle of my lips black to add to the effect, This started to make me look quite scary. I then added some blood to one side of my mouth and let it drip down my chin a bit. Kate, the make-up artist then helped me create a wound on my head.

I really enjoyed doing this photo shoot and meeting the make-up artist because I felt like I really got a lot out of the lesson and I loved learning how to make fake wounds and fake blood.

Green screen animation...

Today we went down to the photography studio and we used a manaquin and photographed it in different positions to help us create a stock animation movie.

We used a green screen when we took pictures. A green screen is a screen which you shine photography lights onto the screen which will then create the colour green and the colour then illuminates when you edit the pictures.

When i used the manaquin I moved it in different dance positions you would use in ballet, there wasn't any particular reason I chose to do this with the manaquin I just thought it would look good. I changed the way the manaquin was moving for each picture because it made the movie flow better when you played the images together one after the other.

I enjoyed going down to the studio and learning about a green screen and how to create a stock animation movie and make the effects of using simple pieces of equipment e.g the green screen, lights, camera and a manaquin look really good.

13/10/11...

today we went down to the photography room and used a green screen and small wooden manakin. We placed the manakin into several different positions and took a picture each time. When we looked at the pictures we had taken on the camera one after the other it made it look as though the manakin was doing a dance.

We used a Canon 5D camera to take the pictures, Bowens lighting, snootn to help the light focus on the manakin to prevent the manakin from looking green like the background.
