Cast
PRIEST
The reason why we chose to cast this person in particular to be our Priest character is because the way he looks and behaves and the way his voice sounds is similar to the way we imagined the Priest to look and sound like.
JAY
The reason why we decided to cast this person to play our character Jay is because he looks the part and he is the right age for the part. Also, this person has basic experience in acting so he was reliable to use as a cast member.

Extras
Ellie Gradley- 18/Black Hair
(as soon as I realised she has dark hair I thought of all the special effects I could do to make her look scary as an extra) eg: gel her hair back into a tight, low pony, draw very thick black eyebrows, and very pale skin. Shes the type of person you could do various looks on. Either way, whatever role she may play, makeup can be adjusted to suit.
Chloe (Me) An extra, perhaps praying on a bench outside the castle? Would like to play some sort of role in it!
I don't think many extras are needed in our production, however if needed more I have a few more people that would be interested.
I feel that having all male actors would be a big issue when distributed; as not many females would perhaps want to see it. I wanted to originally have a female extra (Ellie) to allow a wider audience to view our opening sequence; rather than just males. However, just because our opening sequence does not have any female actors, the director, co producers are all female, which perhaps would open doors for more females to view our final thing. With saying that, I feel our opening sequence would be more aimed at teenage boys because of the main actor Jay.

Makeup and Special Effects
The blood needs working on! but ive made a mess of my bedroom floor right now -_- soooo... I will attempt again on the weekend!
Preperation
just realised I used red food colouring (mistake)
supposed to use the green n blue only!
This vampire horror sequence really inspired me. I think at the start we need to use a very pale type of powder/foundation. It needs to be very unusual not a normal type of pale. For the eyes I think a think layer of black eyeliner, and perhaps a smokey pink/brown eye shadow to surround the eyes.
I was thinking something along the lines of this to begin with (without the blood). The cheekbones need to be defined using a bronzer/goldy shimmer colour. However, at the beginning it needs to be as natural as a vampire could be.
Towards the middle we need to start changing up the makeup and make it more defined. EG:
However, with PURPLE lipstick, a DARK purple.
Towards the END:
Everything needs to be defined. EG: Eyebrows need a THICK layer of black eyeliner. Face should be incredibly WHITE with layers of a purple/pinky shade round the eyes. CHEEK BONES DARK BROWN/PURPLELY SHADE. PURPLE lipstick. Blood running out of mouth.
CHOCOLATE POWDER
COLD WATER
BOILING WATER
RED FOOD COLOURING
STARCH
MIX CHOCOLATE POWDER AND STARCH IN A BOWL, THEN ADD ABOUT 1/4 COLD WATER, AFTER ADD A WHOLE RED FOOD COLOURING, THEN ADD A LITRE OF BOILING WATER AND MIX. IF MIXTURE IS TOO LIQUIDY, ADD MORE STARCH. LEAVE TO COOL DOWN.
Why I chose to do the makeup like we did:
I felt for our piece the opening sequence was meant to be realistic, so I choose to make the makeup as realistic as possible to match with our realism. The makeup at the beginning was made to look as neutral as possible so the audience didn't suspect the so called 'priest' was a vampire. So I choose to use neutral colors in order to achieve this. As time progressed, I choose to make the face more defined, eg. defined cheekbones and a whiter face to show the change from a priest into a vampire. I choose not to have blood on the priests mouth at any point because I felt that It would be too CLICHE' so I took the more realistic approach to be as neutral as I could be to give the opening sequence a more realistic view; to satisfy our audience.

Costume
I thought this costume would be appropriate for the priest as its very ajustable in transforming him into a vampire through this costume.
For Jay, I was thinking keep it very SIMPLE! usual young boy, perhaps jeans and a top, and suitable shoes?
Extras to be wearing all black, and all be holding some sort of cross or black rosery beads around their necks to show the religious aspect of our production.

Risk Assessment
Weather: It's going to be really cold outside while we're filming so we all must make sure that we all wear suitable clothing on the days we're filming outside (Friday and Sunday.) Also, we should all bring an umbrella just in case it rains.
Makeup:
Any makeup will either be applied before entering the building or it will be done outside so there is virtually no chance of makeup getting anywhere inside.
Shoes:
Flat, soft shoes will be worn so our shoes wont damage anything and so it will be easier for us to walk down the difficult stairs without falling! Also, we must check that we have clean shoes before entering the building.
Damage to the building:
Don't touch anything you don't need to touch!
Equipment:
Any equipment that we're not using will be kept in bags or boxes so they're not damaged. Also, any wires will be taped down so no one will trip over.
Other Risks:
No running while inside! (Obviously) Other wise you may trip or knock something over. The only time there will be running is if an actor is being chased by a vampire- In which case, I think running is acceptable!
