Special effects was a whole different ball game for me. I had never done it before and our first module was on creating prosthetic Fairy ears & applying them.
The Royal Shakespeare company would see our designs too with the possibility of them using our design which was pretty exciting. I loved how much freedom we got to be creative but was also daunting at the same time. We had around 3 hours to do makeup and ear application and I think it went alright, it was fun to work under the pressure and work on my bestie. Looking back on it I would have done a couple things different to do with my ear shape but the application and colouring went good. As for the makeup because of her head shape and working under pressure it was exactly like my face chart but they were both symmetrical however Im happy with it, I had a good model ;)
When I was designing my fairy I was inspired by leaves that would be in the forest where my fairy would live and I gave her a leaf eye mask as a camouflage thing because you know they need to not be discovered by humans. In the end she kind of looked like a leaf super hero lol. I used a chromatic colour scheme of different hues of green and below is my finished look! I haven't been sent the proper photography pictures of it yet which is annoying but as soon as I get them i shall post them :)
