Alterations to the Chorus

As we started to edit the chorus the footage which we had captures did not fulfill our expecations. It was too slow and their was not enough movement, enthusiasm or flow. We were not entirely happy with the make-up and out fit choice we chose either. We decided that instead of having smaller more detailed make-up to portray the 'good' and 'bad' side we should go for a more bolder and stronger look.

We did this thorugh painting one side of her face black and the other side gold. To continue the theme we opt for our artist to wear a black and gold dress to maintain the unique look. We shot the scene in the blue room which allows us to be able to make the background transparent and use any background we wish, the image directly below has also been taken in the blue room. To further increase the idea of movement and bring still images to life we used a fan that acted as a wind machine. When editing the film the fan effect will make the video more dynamic and create the sense of movement even when she's not.

In order to create this look we used water based face and body paint to coat either side of the face, we used fine brushes to make the distinct line down the middle.


To add a touch of elegance, beauty and attractiveness to the face we applied self adhesive jewels under the good eye and above the bad eye in a simultaneous fashion to create continuity and a sense of symmetry whilst still being noticably different.
In order to make her eyelashes stand out from the total blackness of her skin create by the paint we have used silver glitter mascara to help define the eye, make it stand out and find the beuaty of the eyelashes.
