Make-Up and Costuming for 'Lucy Allen' (Evil Girl Character)

After experimenting with various materials, I have collected the essentials needed to represent the 'dead girl' in the teaser trailer. This includes face paints, eye shadows, moulding wax, fake blood, the tools needed to apply these and finally the white contact lenses.


The inspiration for this make-up comes from looking at other 'evil girl' characters, in films such as 'The Ring', 'Shutter' and 'The Abandoned', shown in the blog post below.

Again inspired by some of the most successful horror films of the past decade,  this is the completed costume. These were made by being stained in red (and other tones of) face paints representing blood, ripped up, burnt and stretched to create a trashed and old quality.
