I enjoyed this unit as it was interesting
to be able to create my own characters and be more free with my designs of make
up, styling and hair. I am happy with the designs that I created but believe
that they could have been far better and more exciting. I also enjoyed
researching horror TV series, as I had previously not watched them. I had my
initial idea, which I was pleased with, and thought was exciting, but was
unable to use it as it was before we were informed that we had to focus on a TV
series. This threw both my ideas and me, and after that struggled with ideas.
Once I came up with my ideas my biggest issue was with my model who was unable
to apply and wear both contact lenses. I initially wanted the contact lenses to
act as though my character Claudia was being brainwashed by character Mrs
Laderman. This was overcome on the day of the shoot when, luckily, my model was
able to apply one lense. After one was applied my model was unable to see out
of one eye, making it difficult for her to apply the other. It was difficult
to overcome this but I do not believe that it took away much from the overall
effect. There were no other major problems with my characters; my main problem
was struggling with ideas. I found working to this brief difficult as, maybe
foolishly, I began working on my
ideas before the brief was finalized.
