In terms of how the make up came out in the final product, it was not quite as high a standard as I would have liked. On the second day of filming, I didn't bring all of the things I needed to Josh's house as I was working on something at school before coming to film. I got really frustrated and had to redo the gash on my arm quite a few times. I finished it at an above average quality but then didnt have my setting spray to make sure it stayed in place, knocking it on the car door as we drove the the location. I had to try and salvage it which worked okay. I wasn't particularly happy with how it came out but when the blood was poured on it, it looked good. By the third time we went out to film, I realized I had left my blood at Josh's house, which was nowhere to be found. We had to use blood that Josh had for his photography coursework. It was good but not as good as the sugar based one that I had made. It was a lightly colour and a different consistency which ran off of the vaseline scar wax, unlike mine.
If I were to change anything it would be the goriness of the cut. Its meant to look deadly and awful. I think we would probably do four gashes across the face or neck to replicate a large creature attacking the victim. It would also look better if the person was almost unrecognizable, highlighting the lethality of the beast that attacked her. At the moment it doesn't really look as though it did much, yet somehow she dies. It would just make more sense in our plot.
