Its important that I create the right balance between the real footage and the mask and costume that I make. I decided to take my masks and photograph them in the environment in which they will finally be filmed in. I also took some footage to experiment with in after effects. I discovered that even though the paper masks look more effective and relevant to my learning agreement, i need to rethink the colours I choose. So far they have been pastel colours which seem to clash with the dark colours found in the wood. I want my masks to stand out as an abstract object but I need it to have some similarities to the woodland I film in.
my friend that modelled the masks in this shoot, also complained that she couldn't see in the paper mask, as the eyes were cut in the wrong place. This is a careless mistake, but when I make more masks tomorrow, I will measure and be more considerate of the actresses comfort whilst wearing the mask.
