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
