Evaluation of Claudia & Quentin's project

In the second half of the project, I've researched further about Gothic Horror in different areas, such as modern fashion, films and TV series, how the cultures have influenced them. For Claudia and Quentin's project, in order to understand more about clowns, I've researched how clowns have become a horror character and also the reason why many people afraid of clowns. This allows me to comprehend about the evil clowns and helps me to develop my Claudia character. The practice that I've done on myself helps me to know what I need to improve and things I need to change on my designs. I found the most challenging part of Quentin’s design is to make the stitches on Quentin's mouth look realistic. When I did the practice on myself, I've put too much blood and it resulted looking unrealistic. But when I did the final shoot, I think it comes out better and look better. For Claudia’s final design, by practice drawing lines and curves on the face, I feel more confident now and my skills have improved. From this project, I've also learnt different horror archetypes in Gothic horror films and TV series and also understand how different colours and tones can change the mood of the photo. Overall, I'm pleased with the final outcome of the looks. I really enjoy this unit because it allows me to explore my ideas and create our own characters.
