For me this project has been full of up and downs and at first I had to get used to the faster paced term but once I got my head around it I really enjoyed it because it reflects a far more realistic approach in terms of what it is like to work within the industry. The fact that we had 4 different characters at once however it helped that they were linked in some way i.e. Miss Havisham and Estella. What I did enjoy was due to the short time we had to create each character it was just long enough to research but not become sick of the characters before you had finished the brief.
My ' what the Dickens...?' characters i was really pleased with and I enjoyed the challenge of continuity for the first time. From my photos i can see that the 2nd time the hair I created wasn't as neat as the first time and as for the makeup i need to add an extra tear town the face, although for my first time at continuity i was really pleased with the outcome. As for Estella I think I managed to capture a really innocent and pure image which i think contrasts nicely with the character that Estella really is.
In the 2nd half go the brief 'Meet Claudia. Meet Quentin. Love hurts.' I had fun with a contemporary image this time it was a nice contrast to the period looks we had to create in the first half of the brief. I really like my outcome with these 2 characters, whilst creating them I constantly kept in mind whether my designs would work within high fashion and i think i managed to create the right balance of gothic horror and high fashion mixed into one image. Next time i would make Claudia's lips darker on the outer corners and possibly make Quentin's eyes slightly darker but overall I'm extremely happy with the outcome.
