Roger Bennett Riggle: My name is Roger Bennett Riggle and today we are doing a
vampire transformation. This is my model Joshua Dubois. At this
point, we are going to make vampire eyes. Vampire eyes can be
anything you want them to be that goes along with your
imagination. The first thing I like to look at is rather evil eyebrows.
Another wonderful makeup trick is to line underneath the eye with
red because that makes the white of the eye look kind of sickly and
red. Then I am going to give him a little bit of an other worldly
color by putting in, shall we say, an eye shadow in sky blue color.
This is really going to make the eye very big and imaginative for
you.
So let's start with the sky blue color and I am going to ask him to
shut his eye and I am going to just put a very little on there. What I
want this to look like is just a menacing eye with maybe and other
worldly kind of blood flow to these eyes that are looking at night
to bite somebody on the neck for some blood. That's what I am
looking for. Then underneath the eye and I take another brush, I
am going to use a fire red color, a dark red or a true red or a bright
red will work and when you are working on the model, if you ask
the model to look up and I usually hold my pinky on the nose to
steady my brush and then I can just quickly go along from the
outside to the inside with a red color. You can see where that
makes his eyes look rather evil and menacing.
Now we go to the brows and the brows, I like to try and change the
brows shape a little bit, an angular shape looks kind of mean and I
can add some burliness to it to make it look unrolling. So I am
going to take black, mainly because we are using black fake hair
and black hair on our Dracula and I can start where the brow
actually starts and I can fake this brow up and pull it down long
this away. When you are doing makeup with a brush it is best to
use long strokes instead of little dashes. Just put your brush down
and go with it. It is a much better technique and then I can just pull
out and feather little menacing wispies from the brow to give him a
different kind of look.
Now what to do with the existing brow is hopefully, I can take a
little white and use it as a highlight underneath that eyebrow. So I
paint away his real brow and just expose the fake brow. And you
can put a lot of makeup on there; it is a real quick, easy way, just to
change what you are doing. Good, at this point, I also want to take
the black and line the top of his eye, close and I am going to bring
it out some too. Again, it is best to do the eye from the outside in;
it doesn't buckle on you so badly like that. When he opens, there,
we very, very easily transformed his whole eye. We have made it
look bigger because we have raised the brow up, we angled the
brow and we add some wispies to it to make it look a little
menacing and we will do the same, exact application on the other
side of Joshuas face.
Now that we have finished the other eye and I have tried to make
sure that they both pretty much match each other, we are going to
put some red on the lips, so that it looks bloody and I am going to
add a little red to the holes of the prosthetics at the same time. So
while his lips are shut, I am just going to put the red across the lips
and I can make them bigger, if I want to. Again, with the lips, go
from the outside and work in and they won't buckle on you so
badly. There and you can really see how that changes things and
then I am going to get a little bit more red and I am going to go
into here and get to these puncture wounds.
Just like that, okay. Now that we have applied the lip color and put
a little color into the holes of the vampire bites, we are done
basically, putting on the coloring, except I will add some more
bruise coloring to the prosthetics at the end of the transformation.
At this point, you need to set all of the makeup so it lasts for you
all night. So next I will show you how to set all of these colors.
