Inspiration for makeup in our Video




We have been trying to think outside the box and think about how we can adapt our genre, to intrigue the audience and give them something that is not typically found in this particular genre. We have been inspired by this video to try and recreate it in our music video. However we wont have the blood and the black lines on the face. But since our music video is performance and amplification video as well as a narrative one, we thought this would work extremely well. However instead of just having the makeup looking like eyes on top of the lids. When our characters open their eyes they will also have contact lenses in so it will be a shock to the audience and be exceptionally effective. The idea behind this makeup is to almost create an effect in which butterflys use when trying to protect themselves to stop them getting harmed. They have large eye like patterns on their wings making them look like they are bigger, scarier creatures then what they are to scare predators away. Our characters are putting on this front and they look scary so as to make themselves unapprochable and so they cannot be hurt no more. Because people generally put on a front when they are upset so as no questions are asked as into the reason as to why they are upset.
