26/01/2020 was set to be our first filming day, however unfortunately a cast member fell ill just before filming, therefore we couldn't film. We have now arranged to meet on 02/02/2020 to have our first filming.
ZOMBIE LOOK
Despite not filming on this date, myself and Scope Productions met up to practice the zombie makeup once more. It worked relatively well, as the zombie look is a lot more complete than the last time we practised it. Here is a comparison between the two zombie looks we have done so far.
One the left, we have a look that we went or a few weeks ago. It is a lot more simpler and significantly less convincing. On the right, we have the look we practised this Sunday. Here are things we preferred about the more recent one:
- The scar is more convincing (and it looks good going through the eye - will work very well with contact lense)
- Bruising around the scar
- The makeup goes down to the neck
- lip looks swollen because of the blood
- The blood around the mouth is too bright
- There are white areas around the scarring
- The general colour needs to be more pale (too red/purple)
We still need to practise:
- Fitting the makeup with the hair
- Dressing the zombie with the makeup
- practising with liquid latex

That is a HUGE upgrade on the earlier attempt - though, as you've noted, don't neglect the hair!
