Horror Movie Special Effects Makeup:
This Genius Hour is the sad, sad story of how I failed at time management. My plan for this Genius Hour was to complete my slashed eye look for my "How to Read Lit Like a Professor" video and film that scene. My model was meant to be Hannah, but I did not realize that haunted house and quarter thesis papers would take up so much of my group's time. The delay extended until when Hannah left for National FFA, so my plan for this Genius Hour and my entire action plan as a whole pretty much fell apart.
This was completely my fault for not realizing time frames would conflict. To combat this and end my Genius Hour on a strong note, I decided to restructure the rest of my action plan for the entire project. For Genius Hour 1.5, I took another week to watch tutorials and get ideas and gather motivation for the rest of my project. Genius Hour 1.6, I'll record all of the makeup I'm completing for the haunted house. Genius Hour 1.7, I'll finally complete my slashed eye look, Finally for Genius Hour 1.8, I'll do a full face horror movie character which will be decided by a poll later on.
I spent the rest of my time watching tutorials to prepare for my final, full face look. My character options that I'm still debating between are Pennywise, Freddy Kreuger, or Valak the Nun. These are the tutorials that I'm referencing for the possible looks.

Do you have a favorite style of make up to do? I feel like the scary, Halloween type looks are very difficult to create. Do you have a place where you order supplies or is it all just make up from Walmart or something? It sounds like this task has been quite enjoyable for you and I hope you learn a lot, good luck!!
ReplyDeleteStuff happens! Sometimes things get in the way, and that's okay! I can imagine it would be hard to keep a 100% consistent schedule while you have countless homework assignments from the two periods you have to spend in Hollowell's class. What are some horror movies that have truly inspired makeup ideas? Keep up the good work!
