dead persons
Sun, 6 July 2008, 09:15 pmAnother question for the experts. Again, in relation to our play set in heaven. We want the characters to look deceased, so, we need a suitable makupo, nopt so heavy that they have white painted faces, suggestions welcome.

Depending on how long since the bod was put down?
With the make up things like the eye sockets, jaw & cheeks would have sunk & need to be shaded darker than that of the skin. which would start to become yellowish to cyan in colour. At least that is what I remember from my stint in the morgue.
As for Make Up I know nowt, rather make down, is my tea bag.
As David suggested don't be frightened off, in using a colour palette with the lighting. subtle colours would enhance the mise en scene. Beside the back & front light, I'd think I would chuck in a hint of side lighting, possibly Lilac.
