Make-Up

As our production is a vampire parody film, we needed to have our lead Vampire character to have the all the looks and features of the stereotypical vampire. With this in mind, due to my position as playing the lead vampire, I had to undergo a fairly lengthy procedure of applying make up to my face.

To get the look of the vampire, we used white face paint as a base all over the face, with black eyeshadow used to create distinctive cheekbones, creating a gaunt and somewhat animated look. We again used black eyeshadow over and under the lids of the eyes, the by lining the eyes with a black liquid eyeliner this gave out more definition in the eyes giving them a more intense look.

We then used the liquid eyeliner to line both the eyebrows and the hairline using angled edges to create a Dracula esque symmetrical facial shape. Furthermore, we added some red lipstick to the lips, and then coated with a gloss to give a dripping effect simular to blood. Finally, by adding wet look gel to the hair we were able to create the combed back, quiffed style made synonymous with the Count Dracula image.
