Creating dark eyes and dark lips


Creating dark eyes and dark lip

After a consultation with the mode i found out that that she has dry skin therefore after cleansing and toning I used a rich moisturiser on her followed 





Final Mood Board for Claudia

Final Mood Board for Claudia 

After creating a moodpboard for Claudia It made it clear what make up hair style and clothing I was going for. I wanted it to be very glamorous 1950's make up with the classic winged liner and the famous Marilyn Monroe curls. Although in the 1950's they would not have worn a lot of glitter for the clothing, in American Horror Story I have spotted some of the characters wearing glittery outfits to perform therefore I decided to go with a glitter top.  I purchased a glittery top, glamorous eyelashes and a big necklace to show of Claudia as a beautiful desirable woman with a lot of trouble which she hides behind her beauty.

The mood board helped me a lot with what i was aiming to design and create for Quentins character as I found it harder to design for a male. I like the burgundy jumper because it shows darkness and danger. The bruise underneath the eye is to show the abusive relationship between Claudia and Quentin and the cigarette in the mouth is to show his status and that he is a person that chain smokes.
Overall I struggled with Quentin however I am pleased with how the photos turned out because they are dark and gloomy as I wanted to them to be which fits in well with American Horror Story Freak show and also how Claudia imagined him.

Developing Quentin

Developing Quentin

Quentin is Claudias imaginary boyfriend. He in Claudias eyes is the most perfect man alive, she is obsessed and in love with him.
Quentin also loves Claudia but he also loves the freak show, he spends most of his time preparing for the show and helping with the acts that he forgets to spend time with Claudia which leaves her angry and upset. Claudia idolises Elsa Mars and in the same way she has created her imaginary boyfriend to be very handsome and strong.

Given Circumstances for Quentin

24 years of age, Quentin has always worked as a builder but he has always had a passion for the circus watching extraordinary acts which is why he now works in the circus as full time as well as being Claudia's boyfriend. Their relationship gets very abusive as Claudia has mental problems which leads her to have psych attacks throwing things at Quentin and hitting him which results in fights from both ends.

I like the colour deep red as it shows power but at the same time danger and blood which is why I incorporated it in my moodpboard so i get more ideas of how to use it in my final design which I then decided to pair up with a red jumper. I wanted to show bruising to signify their abusive relationship. The contour on the face to show a handsome boy who Claudia is in love with.
