Hair Practice for Jeykll and Hyde.

Consultation notes:
Name: Ross Kershaw
Age:22
Skin type: dry
Hair type: Grey/pink, short
Skin tone: Pale
Eye colour: blue
Eyeshape: Even
Allergies/medication: N/A
Contraindications: N/A
Notes: Use heat spray onto the hair as it gets bleached a lot.

Tools used:
Kryolan color spray brown, grey and black

Notes: spray at a far distance, cover the skin to make sure you don't spray the colour onto the skin.

I have sprayed the grey and brown to see what they looked like together, I didn't really like the outcome of the brown colour.

I have sprayed over the brown with the black and think it looks a lot better for this character, as the character is meant to have a sinister look and believe the black would help create this effect.

This color spray is amazing I like how it looks with and without the flash. I am thinking a side part, one side it grey and slick back and the other side is messy and curly this will be the black side. I will have to style the hair first before using the spray.

Dirty teeth

I have only used the colouring on the top front two teeth.

Step 1. Dry the teeth with a cotton wool bud

Step 2. Apply the nicotine colour to the teeth all over

Step 3. Apply the black colour onto the bottom of the teeth

To remove use surgical spirit/alcohol on the teeth and with a cotton wool bud.

With the time I had it was a bit rushed, next time I would do most of the teeth and not leave white gaps, this is what I can improve on for next time. I need to do some research on rotting teeth and use the images from that to create a better looking image for rotting teeth, but today was more of a try of using the product as it was my first time.

Skin type: dry
Hair type: Grey, short
Skin tone: Pale
Eye colour: blue
Eyeshape: Even
Allergies/medication: N/A
Contraindications: N/A
Notes: Can use fullers earth in hair and on skin.

Tools used:
cotton buds
Fullers earth
Kryolan color spray (dirty grey & black)
hairdryer

Dust

This is fuller's earth straight from the pot, this creates the dust/dirty powdery texture.

Step 1. Take a nice amount of fullers earth and place it where you would like the products

Simple.

Dirt/Cracks

Mixing fullers earth with water.

Step 1. Mix fullers earth with water in a clean tub until it turns to a thick paste

Step 2. Apply the the paste where you would like the cracks/dirt

3. Dry with a warm hair dryer

4. Wait until it all turns into a light grey colour

Applying Colour

Using Kryolan color spray in dirty grey and black (shake well before use)

Step 1. After the product is dry use the dirty grey spray all over the hand/product

Step 2. Apply the black onto the fingers and fade out by holding the spray further back

The effect of the spray onto the fullers earth gives it a really different look and adds more to it that just using the fullers earth on its own. The hand now looks like a zombie hand reaching out from a grave. The product reminds me of a face mask and the way it cracks when its dry, I love the effect and really proud of how it has turned out. I would work harder on creating a dusty face but as I only had a short time I just applied a small amount.

Scars (Rigid collodion)

Skin type: dry
Hair type: Long Brown
Skin tone: Pale
Eye colour: green
Eyeshape: Even
Allergies/medication: N/A
Contraindications: N/A
Notes: do not apply too close to eyelids, or use for multiple days in a row.

Tools:
Natural pink tone lip pencil (Illamasqua woo)
Rigid collodion

Step 1: Apply the lip pencil to the face where you want the scar to be.

Step 2: Apply the rigid collodion onto the lip pencilled line, apply a few coats of the product and wait for it to dry.

This is an amazing effect for creating realistic scars, I love this product and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wanted to create a scar. Its easy and quick to use. I feel this would be good for film/ tv as it looks so realistic and think it would look good on camera.

Tyrion Lannister- Game of Thrones

On screen the character Tryrion was hurt in battle and now has a scar down his face, rigid collodion would be good for creating older/healed scars to the face as seen in the picture below.

I have found a clip from the TV Series that shows Tyrion's scar more clear.

Jekyll and Hyde ITV UF

Jekyll and Hyde (ITV)

So as I have been researching about my book I stumble across this gem, an actual series which is based on Jekyll and Hyde. It is set more into the future from the 18th century, in the 1930's London. It based on the original Jekyll and Hyde's grandson who has inherited the split personality trait. It shows other monsters and strange characters and involves Dr Robert Jekyll and Mr Hyde the hero stopping the monsters from terrorising London and his quest to discover his own real identity and cure the curse of his family.

I watched the whole first season and really got into it, was really interesting seeing the styles of 1930's the make-up/hair styles and the outfits. I enjoyed how Jekyll transforms into his other half with veins all round his eyes, clear glossy eye contacts, crooked teeth and messed up hair.

Unfortunately their isn't going to be another series as it was discontinued as their wasn't enough viewers watching but it has really helped with learning more about Jekyll and Hyde.

Jekyll and hyde make-up ideas and face charts

Jeykll and Hyde Make-up design

The Character I had chosen to do was both Jekyll and Hyde and decided to half and half the make-up, one side will be Jekyll and the other Hyde. In the book Jeykll is an aged man, so I have decided to do the make-up with wrinkles and grey bushy eyebrows. Hyde is known as odd looking/ deformed, so I have decided to make his face look rough with deep cheek bones, heavy bags under eyes, bushy black eyebrows, white skin and red blood shot eyes.

I am really happy with my design but I am not sure whether to use latex for the wrinkles or just use eye shadow and create the lines. Latex is unpredictable at times and I don't want to mess my continuity assessment up, so I am more towards using the eye shadow, but it is something I need to test out.

Jekyll and hyde hair chart/ideas

Jeykll and Hyde Hair Charts

I have created this face chart with Victorian influences, looking at Victorian men's hairstyle  I have decided to go with a side parting. As my design is half and half, one side which is the small side of the parting will be slick back and grey as Jekyll is an old man. On the other I see some of the Victorian men have slightly curled hair and as my other character Hyde is know as deformed and abnormal I will over curl his hair and back comb it looking crazy and have it black.

I really like my idea and think it is suitable for the character, I have enjoyed doing half and half design and was unsure whether I would come up with a good design, I even thought of using a top hat but I wanted to design more of the hair and not cover most of it with a hat.
