In preparation for this I have watched many Maleficent make-up tutorials on youtube to get a good overall idea of how to achieve the look. Here are a few of the videos that I watched...
I did this photo-shoot with location lighting set up, this was due to other people in my class running over in to my studio 1hour time slot by 50mins. Therefore leaving me unable to use it. I also used a black backdrop for this photo-shot as I want it to be quite dark and eery. This was quite a short photo-shoot as it all had to be set up last minute due to the main studio problems. Here are my contact sheets...
Overall I'm quite disappointed with the result of this photo shoot. I wasn't happy with the lighting as there where to many windows in the room for the room to be dark where the photos where being taken. Also my model Marissa was over an hour late, meaning that we had less time to do her make-up and also meaning we had less time to experiment taking pictures. I know that if we had also done hair and costume for this photo shoot then Marissa would have looked more like maleficent, but with the red lipstick matching the colours on her top, and with her being so pale, I can't help but think she looks slightly like a clown. I am pleased with how well the lighting turned out due to the amount of light coming in trough the windows, but I was planning on having this darker with shadows coming over her face. This photo shoot has given me a better idea of how I need to do the make-up though. I could improve by making the eye make-up darker and more defined by also adding fake eyelashes, and I also need to make the eyebrows more pointed and evil looking.
