Practical Source of Inspiration

WOUNDS.

Fight club (1999)

I was inspired by the movie makeup in the 1999 film 'Fight Club'.
In particular, the special effects cuts and wounds.

To recreate the wounds seen in fight club, I used:

• Liquid Latex
• Fake blood
• Acrylic paints

1. I applied the liquid latex to the areas where the wounds would be:

(When dry, the latex is clear:)

2. Using scissors, I cut into the latex:

3. I then painted into the 'wounds' using red, blue and brown acrylic paints:

I did the same for the other 'wounded' areas:

4. Using a sponge, as well as simply pouring it on, i added fake blood to the wounds.  I also used the fake blood to create a nose bleed effect, inspired by the image from 'Fight Club' seen above.

Strengths

My strengths centre around the creative arts.  I believe that this will be helpful to my group as I can storyboard clearly and create special effects such as those demonstrated above.
