Before going into this shoot I knew I would need to make a few adjustments to this character because of the difference between myself and the previous model. I felt quite confident in doing this because I have explored the character design and understand how I need to alter certain parts of a look in order for it to look better and more adaptable to my look. Reshooting the Moulin Rouge character, I needed to re-style the outfit due to the sizing differences between myself and the original model. I did not have time to order a new outfit and tried to resolve this problem by choosing a top I already I have. Doing this, I was aware that the styling needed to suit the Moulin Rouge character I created. The top I chose was black and I felt that a better thing for me to do was alter the makeup as it was too light coloured to match the black. I also thought that by using black eye liner too, this would the tears I needed more clearer to see when film. I tried to alter the makeup in a way where it was similar to the style of the original look but with a darker tone to it.
I also changed the hairstyle by not creating plaits and only curls. This was because I didn't think the head accessory was sitting nicely on top of it. Recreating the hairstyle without the plaits looked much better with the head accessory and I think having longer hair also suited this look more.
During filming I had someone else record the camera for me and help make sure that I looked presentable for the film on set. When filming, I felt that it was hard to know if what I was doing was correct as, obviously, I can not see it until after. I got a variety of shots including close ups. I also decided to change the handkerchief idea to just using tissues. The handkerchief I used was a synthetic and did not really look like a handkerchief. I think that by using tissues instead will make the crying scenes look more natural than using a handkerchief. Putting this into action, I do think it came off better and more natural.
