My Beloved: Horror Photo Shoots for 2011

I’m looking to do more horror shoots in the near future.

You can see the past My Beloved blood & gore at these links:

I Just Wanted To Make You Smile

Trophy Wife

The Young Lovers

Updates: Alone Inside Yourself has been shot.  I am still looking to shoot Angels of Eternal Stasis.  Date of that shoot is up in the air right now, but it is going to go down.  I am looking for three young ladies to model for that one.  Contact me if interested in this project.

Suzann Ridolfi will be doing the special effects make-up.

Details of the two shoots:

Angels of Eternal Stasis.

Update: This shoot will be happening on a date to be determined.  I am casting for this shoot now, contact me if interested.  Below are two concept drawings of what the special effects make-up will look like.  Clicking on the images will open a larger version in a new tab/window.  This shoot will probably involve a field trip to a thrift store to find some clothing we can de-construct for the shoot.

Characters: Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.  Three young girls.

When death takes hold you feel the embrace of decay.  In life you found only pain as your heart was ripped out day after day by an uncaring and unfair world.  As the blood drained away the coldness keeps you warm for eternity.

What’s my motivation? Oh cruel world.  You just don’t understand.  But now everything is warm and wonderful.  Now you are happy and playful, smiles and laughs.  Death is just a game to you.

Makeup: Wrists and arm will have cutting scars.  There will be a large chest wound where their hearts were ripped out.

Wardrobe:  You are (were?) all teenagers who killed yourselves.  Think cute teenage girl.  Not Gothic.  Encouraged: Cute boots, shorts, skirts, cute shirts, tank-tops, bright colours (but no pure white, white in the design is okay), patterns, plaid skirts, poka-dots.  You are young and girly.  Bring a few looks and we will coordinate the three of you.    Note: Shirts should have low necklines so we can see the wound where your heart was torn out.

Alone Inside Yourself. (this shoot has already happened)

This shoot is happening on Monday, June 20th and my friend Cassidy will be playing this role.

Character: Only I Can Hear, Only I Can See (she goes by “Only” for short), a young woman.

You hear the voices, why can’t anyone else hear them?  Are they all insane?  It’s not just your mind that is warped, it’s also your body.

What’s my motivation? After becoming horribly disfigured the visions and the voices starting coming to you.  You see things.  You hear voices.  You don’t know where you are.  You don’t always remember who you are.  All you know is the pain, the visions, the voices and you aren’t happy about this at all.

Makeup Only has ones side of her face and body mutilated & disfigured, eye is gone, left side of mouth sewn or scared shut.  Left hand and arm and maybe even leg mutilated.  Desired effect is that the whole left side of her body is mutilated.  Note: can the wounds be a bit “fresh”.  Not gushing blood, but recent, wet, “soft”.

Wardrobe:
I’m still thinking on this.  If anyone can loan us a straitjacket that would be amazing.

My Beloved . . . is that a tear in your eye?
