MAKE-UP, COSTUME AND PROPS

MAKE-UP

To achieve the protagonist's 'drugged' state we have taken inspiration from this article which gives tips on how to look ill. We expermineted using pale foundation, sun cream, moistouriser, colour correcting foundation and to make fake sweat we mixed glycerin and water.

We came to the conclusion that a mixture of the colour correcting foundation and 'fake sweat' produced the best results- shown below:

COSTUME

Regarding costumes, both characters will wear dark unbranded casual clothing to avoid the audience being distracted from the action. The protagonist's clothes may be dusty/ dirty due to lying on the floor and the shopkeeper will wear noticeably feminine clothes to contrast her stereotypically 'masculine' role as the kidnapper.

PROPS

Other than the drip, bought from eBay, we will use objects from the antique warehouse, such as the mannequin. One of the advantages of shooting at this location was the access to a variety of props.
