Opening Two Minutes-Characters and Costumes

 

News Reporter-This will be the first character shown in our film. Our character will be a blonde middle-aged female wearing smart clothing. e.g shirt, skirt or a blazer. The news reporter will be speaking to the audience how to stay safe, how to defend themselves and where to go to get help. The news reporter is important in our opening two minutes as she is explaining everything, not only to those in the film but the audience also.
 
 

 Masked Survivors-During the news report a small clip is going to be shown of people walking around wearing surgical masks. The masked survivors will be wearing casual clothing except from the mask as it is protecting them from the airbourne virus. We want to make the survivors look drained and exhausted to get the emotion across.
 
 

Our Survivor- Our survivor will be a young girl and also our main character in our opening two minutes. The young girl's clothes will be torn and ripped in some places, this will indicate that she has been running and hiding for a while. To make her look tired and vunerable to the audience we will apply pale white make up to her face and apply dark make up to her eyes. We don't want to make our main character seem too weak however as she will be headstrong and powerful.
 
 

The Zombies-The zombies are also a main focus in our opening two minutes so when they aren't in the scene, the audience will be wondering where they are. The zombies will be wearing ripped and torn clothing also except they will be covered in blood. I have been looking on YouTube for make up tutorials so i could get a better knowledge and so i'm going to be applying the make up also to make the zombies more realistic.
