Miss Havisham Recreating Continuity - Part 2

 For this post I will be comparing images taken from my initial timed assessment and my second timed assessment where I was attempting to recreate the Miss Havisham look for continuity.

Initial timed assessment

Second timed assessment for continuity

On the day of the assessment I felt i had rushed the whole thing due to the fact that i finished much earlier than the previous time I created the look. I also realised after shooting my look that I forgotten to contour down the nose which i knew would make the overall face look rather different to photos of my previous attempt. I was also a little disappointed that I ran out of dry shampoo, used to whiten and a dusty effect to the hair, which meant the hair looked bighter and less dull and dusty than the time before. 

When I compare the photos taken on this day to the ones from two weeks previous I also notice a couple of other details Im not happy with. I found that although id forgotten the dry shampoo, the hair overall wasnt too different in tone. However, the hair on the second attempt was much curlier than previously. I did notice this during the timed assessment and tried to remedy it but trying to straighten the curls out a little but found that in the end they sprang back up too much. 

I also find that the lips in my second continuity assessment are brighter and much healthier looking which takes away from the overall effect of the look. 

Overall, I think I made a good effort on this look and the continuity of it but the result is by no means perfect. I think overall my Miss Havisham concept of self neglect has good groundings and is suited well to its purpose (theatre play) sue to its realistic nature and dramatisation of features such as the hollowed cheeks and sore eyes. In future, when working for continuity I will pay further attention to small details and make sure that I am fully prepared to recreate a look to the the exact same standard.
