Below is a video of my make-up work for the film project.
I did the make-up for the filming. I cut out a piece of a silver mask and glued it to my cheek and tried my hardest to make it seem as though the metal was embedded within my skin. I folded glue over the metal and clear some glue from it to allow it to seem clean and still maintain its luster. I do face painting, so I used my face paint to throw on some symbols that fill the style of which our cult would wear. I also sprayed my hair red to add a bit more to my character. The red, is symbolism for the fact that the character is blood soaked. I used purple paint as eyeshadow simply to add more coloration to the culture and world that I would have to build when working on a longer variation of this project. After I worked on myself, I got my dad in a chair to make his eyes seem deeper in darkness using black face paint.
Malice is likely to be a rated R production. The audience that we would like to reach is 17 years of age to 35 years, covering young adults and many sci-fi fans over the course of the decades. Because it's rated R, it would be better to market the movie towards action lovers and sci-fi lovers. But it's also dark and twisted and the theme of anarchy would draw more Gothic fans as well. There are what we call "cult audiences" or "niche films" where the topic or interest of the film is only directed to a certain group people that just love those kinds of films, and this is likely to be one of those.
