Make-Up for our Zombie



The first one is obviously before, and the second was is after. The make-up provided that we could use was a low amount and not partically what we wanted so the work done wasnt to the best of Quality. However, taking in to account the supplies, we did a pretty good job of turning our friend and soon to be actor, Scott Burton, into a zombie.

Its not really scary but after a few practices and when we get hold of better equiptment, we believe that we can make Scott look terrifying in the dark. After applying the make-up, we left Scott alone for about 2 minutes and in that time he had tampered with what we've done and ruined/rubbed off quite a bit of our work. This made the final piece rather tacky and it was very time consuming trying to get it back to the original state.

On thing we struggled with was the fake blood. As we couldnt get any, we resulted to using a red Sharpie and tomato ketchup. Scott wasn't going to put ketchup around his mouth or on his lips cos of the horrible taste, but after some persuation he eventually caved in and agreed to do it.

I believe we could of improved this by having a lot more of props (torn clothing etc.) and by having a lot more make-up and fake blood. But overall, the outcome was a success.
