OUR ACTORS /Antagonists ARE AS FOLLOWS;
THE ANTAGONIST COSTUME:
Lost in the migration and shoved in a refugee camp our atangonist's fall ill with the deadly disease the strain. as their body transforms and the side affects kick in fustration causes them to rip their clothes and as the body looses it humanly form the clothing becomes ill fitting and hangs on their bodies. the re hot to touch and most of their clothing is damp with sweat causing dark circles to appear on what is left with the linen, those infected with the strain look completely different to others in society.

nto achieve the desired costume look for our antangonist. on the 9th of November, myself (lucy), Maada and huldah met to create a costume suitable for our antangonists. bellow are some pictures taken from the day off creation.
FILMING DAY 13-11-15. The antagonist costume:
oulayma's outfit consisted of a purple printed t-shirt which was slit with scissors on the front and back to add the Apocalypse effect. |

MAKEUP Inspiration #1 the walking dead - TV series amc
|
The zombie makeup in this zombie themed series is at a very high level, so makeup tips and looking at this for inspiration will help to add a sense of realism and therefore make the trailer more scary. |
MAKEUP INSPIRATION #2 - SHAUN OF THE DEAD (FILM)
|
although Shaun of the dead doesn't use the most advanced makeup techniques, the people carry themselves in a certain way which differentiates from the human cast. this way and the look that these people have fits our synopsis of normal people becoming infected and therefore not needing to have the sfx and advanced makeup seen in the walking dead. |
MAKEUP INSPIRATION #3 - DAWN OF THE DEAD (FILM)
|
DAWN of the dead is a modern day zombie film. the zombies in this film have a very advanced level of makeup and editing to create a sense of realism. what we liked about dawn of the dead is the fear that you have of the zombies through makeup etc, so therefore we have decided this film is an inspiration due to us aspiring to have the same fright level that this trailer achieves. |
MAKE UP TUTORIALS FOR OUR AnTAGONISTS
TO COMpLETE THE ILL FITTING LOOk the overall appearance of our actors has to change. below are makeup tutorials that we will follow to make the antangonists look more realistic.
TUTORIAL #1
|
THE INFECTED ZOMBIE LOOK:
Tutorial #1 is an infected zombie look. As the idea behind the antagonist in our film tranZient is that they change mental and physical state due to the new disease the strain this tutorial works really well.
|
TUTOrIAL #2
|
THE ZOMBIE LOOK(SIMPLIFIED)Tutorial #2 as a group we all like. it is simple and the kit that Is used Is easy to get hold of meaning that the production can start sooner. the look is also quite quick to do which is important as on the day we film we have a lot of actors-actresses to turn into antagonists who switch from protagonists, so the simpleness of it will make it more time effective
|
Tutorial #3
|
THE ROTTEN LOOK (ZOmBIE)
Tutorial #3 as a group we liked because it gave the affect of a rotten corpse-person. And because our synopsis for tranzient is all about the decaying of a person and them transitioning into a zombie through the virus we felt the final result of this was quite affective. it also involves little latex which means it is more time effective.
