Lesson: Cuts, Bruises, Scratches,Scars And Black Eye

 Products used:

• Moulding wax( plasto)
• Sealer
• Cover top of latex-> make fleshy
• Puss
• Dirt
• Red eye drops
• Kryolan crimson
• Palette knife
• Hairdryer
• Spatula
• Pin
• Wound filler
• Blood
• Typlast
• pipette



 Bruise/ Black eye

->super colour or eyeshadow
->no hard edges
->to blend better you can use moisturizer
->before you do the bruise think about how old it is supposed to be







 I also did some bruises on myself (practice at home)







Those bruises are supposed to be already a couple of days old. The center of the bruise is not that dark anymore and the older bruises get the more they turn yellowish green.

->when you do a black eye apply the make up first (if person is supposed to wear make up)
->don't powder a black eye
->apply Vaseline to make it look shiny and swollen



 Split lip

->using Colodium
   

·   -> Apply barrier cream/foam first! Rub it in where you gonna put it
·   -> Apply colodium, tilt head slightly back and put a good amount on it
·   -> Have hairdryer ready
·   -> Use something to create a scar, like a palette knife, and dry it
·   -> While creating the scar with palette knife press that part of lip together
·   -> Add another layer
·   -> Create a keloid effect

·   -> Typlast, can literally make scars with it, if it is too shiny powder it up, can peel them of easily

I haven't done a split lip using Colodium but I did light scars using Typlast.







Wounds/ Cuts

• Glue for wax or without
• Cut and mould before
• Moulding wax
• You cover it with sealer, have to cover wax before colouring
• Latex
• Then colour it
• Depth in cut-> then apply blood
• How old is cut?-> new cut has light coloured blood
• Don’t powder
• You can use fixing spray before you apply the blood
• Do wound first before applying make up



->don’t add any blood/water/fluids until actor is on the floor or right position
->water/blood has to drop/fall from the person, way of falling has to be natural
->do research about it!
->old wounds/scaring, typlast ,non- flexible colodium-> put barrier under colodium

Steps for making a cut/wound

• Get wax and put it on the back of your hand, make it a bit smoother-> like icing butter
• Layer it up on wrist
• Blend the edges out really nicely, use moisturizer or cleanser to help blend
• Wipe excess wax off 
• Slit it, make a cut
• Now you can cover it with latex or sealer
• When covering with latex blend out properly!
• Have to work quickly otherwise you will pick it up again
• Dry with hairdryer (until transparent)
• Use a pin and start picking it up, make wound look more realistic
• Now can match skin-color
• Wound filler, use pin or spatula , then put it into the wound, you could also use a brush to do it, make sure the wound filler is really in-> don’t want it to fall out, built up texture, think about detail
• Use stipple sponge and blood to create redness
• No hard edges
• Dip it into wound
• Gloss gives it a more 3D effect

I did a cut on the wrist
