Mask Ideas

Today I looked at masks to use for our clan members, I looked on Ebay and a party shop near to where I live.

We have an idea to use half-masks such as this one and then add bits on to make them all individual. We will make the leader have a more intricate one than the others as she is the leader. For the Killer we might use a scream type mask or buy another type mask, we're not too sure yet. However we do need one that can cover the full face as we don't see the Killers identity until the end shot where Alana is hanging over the tree.

This is the type of mask we would use for the members of the clan as we can then add details onto it and paint the other side of people faces. The only problem with painting peoples faces is that if we have to film on another day we will have to try and get the face paint exactly the same as before to make sure the continuity flows.

Here is an example of the Scream masks used in the film Scream. We would use this because it covers the whole of the Killers face so the identity isn't revealed.

However, as this is a horror teaser trailer we would like to have a really scary mask, but we feel that we might frighten ourselves with a mask such as this. Although if we quickly flash on the mask it would probably make people jump as they are not expecting it so I think it is a good idea.

Above, is two examples of some scary masks which the Killer could wear, I think these are terrifying which would be good if we did flash on the mask and then off again.
