Sorting out the costume ready for post-transformation


It was imperative for me to finish the costume ready for filming with my model/actress tomorrow. I identified that the previous technique of weaving tissue paper through material was taking way too long in ratio to its purpose in the costume. The most important element was that it added colour and texture to the costume to make the character look noticeably different across the body post-transformation. Body paint is obviously a main element to the transformation. The new technique included making simple forms out of black card and then layering coloured tissue paper and cutting into it to form 'abstract fur'. I'm curious to see how these elements work during filming in the next couple of days. I have concerns that it may look a little too simple on screen. If so, i'll have to re-make this elements.
