Makeup done on the filming days

We spent about half an hour on each of our filming days, creating the 'battered and bruised' look on Ruby's face.
Grace and I took turns to produce bruises and cuts all over Ruby.

Below are some photos showing what makeup we used along with what the outcome was.

Final draft

Below is a time lapse of myself and Grace creating Ruby, our actress' makeup look, to make the audience believe she has been beaten and abused.
We used dark eyeshadow shades to create bruises and fake blood to show any cuts and scratches. We used the makeup on her face, neck, arms and legs to show the horrific conditions she has been put through.
We practiced this makeup look before hand so on the days of filming we knew what do straight away. The makeup was very effective as when we showed people they said it was very believable and "terrifying".

We needed 3 days of filming to create our opening title sequence. This was due to the lighting changes at different times of the day. By extending the filming time to more than what we planned, it gave us opportunities to assess what we had created and work out what needed to be changed, added or removed to create the most believable opening title sequence.
