- As some of the actresses that we would like to use in our short film wear a hijab, we have accepted their requests in wearing this as we think it will show diversity and multiculturalism within the film.
- The actresses that do not wear a head scarf will be given hairstyles accustom to their characters - Hasan's friend will have her hair out, representing a teenage girl, however the mother will have a more sophisticated look with a blow dry.
- The character of Shahin is presented as rough through his costume therefore his hair will be scruffy and messy to add to its nature.
- Hasan has a more accomplished look as he likes to take care of the way he looks. His hair will be more clean and tidy of a side swept quiff.
- The ghost/ghoul's hair will be rotten and deteriorated and falling out, adding to the effect of him seeming disgusting. His hair will be green, differing from any of the other characters and solely making him stand out and defining him as something to stay away from.
Make Up
- All the girls in the short film will have a natural look. Sharmila and her friends will hardly wear make up. Mainly foundation and mascara and bronzer, as research into girls have found that in this day and age, young girls have started wearing make up from the age of 13.
- Simi will wear mainly foundation, mascara and eye liner with contour to contrast with the other girls and show she is more older.
- Hasan and Shahin will go bare to present a more real representation of teenage boys as opposed to creating them into a model with perfect skin. This allows the audience to feel as if having skin with spots is okay - also showing the girls that make up is not always necessarily needed.
- The mother will have a more darker lip to show she is more sophisticated. Yet her eyes will be very minimal as she is a mother and has less time to do her make up.
- The ghost's make up will present a very pale face but also very bloodied. His eyes will be blacked out as well as it's mouth however blood will be dripping down it's face. The bruising around the face will make the ghost look very sickly, making the audience fell uncomfortable to look at it.
Special FX
- This is mainly for the ghost/ghoul
- Inspiration was taken from @akhanartistry (Aisha Khan) who is a very popular special effects make up artists who focuses on the gore of make up.
- She is also on YouTube where she does tutorials with step by step instructions on how to create the same look.
- This is one of the main ideas that we took inspiration from. Instead of a pumpkin, we wanted to do a 'J' for 'Jack' when Hasan sees something on his hand, however when he looks back at it, it's gone.
- There are also various other ideas that we would incorporate from ideas that we have seen on her Instagram page such as the big, bloodied mouth etc.
