Test Shooting

These are some pictures of my test shooting of Daisy's I created. It was very interesting for me, because I wanted to see how Daisy is going to look. I wanted to control the lights and also to see my wrongs things. First I created the finger waves hairstyle and then I continued with the make-up of 20's.
I think this was very good and helpful for me, because I wanted to get more skills for my final shoots.

Face chart shoot 3

This is the face chart from the last scene that I am going to create. This scene represents Daisy Buchanan, a rich woman, who is in love with riches, with clothes, accessories and make-up, but also, a woman who deceived her love and she is leaving with her husband. Daisy in this scene is after killing Myrtle's and Gatsby's death, leaving without feelings with her husband Tom.

Face chart shoot 2

This is the face chart from the second scene that I am going to create. This scene represents the bad and hard character of Daisy's, as we can see with the strong eyes and lipstick in face chart, and this happened after killing the mistress of her husband Myrtle, with the car. In this scene I want to present a bad person without feelings.

Face chart shoot 1

This is the face chart of the first scene that I am going to create. These scene represents Daisy Buchanan, the beautiful and irresistible woman, who met her old love again and she was exiting not only with him but also with his money.
In this scene Daisy is in Gatsby's party and she is outside of his luxury house, waiting to meet him secretly from her husband Tom.

Locations

These pictures represent the location that I am going to shoot. My first look will represent Daisy outside of Gatsby's house (in his party) waiting to meet him secretly.

The third shoot will represent Daisy in the street, leaving after, killing Myrtle's and Gatsby's death, with her husband Tom.

Storyboarding of Daisy's Character

Storyboarding will allow me to draw my ideas before designing the character. This will help me to access the pictures in my head and give me an opportunity to translate my pictures ideas into designs.
I created this storyboard with my ideas abou my three images. The scenes are going to be with different designs and different lights so you can understand the mood. I think in my storyboard you can see how will be the images and the story of them.

Fashion collages and mood boards

I created some mood bards and  collages that represent my chosen character ( Daisy Buchanan),  through fashion  photography.

Nail of 20's

In the 20's, nails were only painted in the center, leaving the half moon and the tip bare. This generally helped the nail varnish last longer and, since it is incredibly difficult to do yourself, showed you had the money to pay for a manicure. They were also filed into a round edge, which is more delicate by nature, and therefore showed the individual didn't do manual work. Colors used were more often reses, reds and oranges, but there has been some evidence of use of a peacock green color.


Colored nail polishes were invented in the 1920's and the first nail polish was launched by Revlon.

Gothic Make-up

At that time when Daisy didn't go to Gatsby's funeral we daw a different kink of her personality and we really understood who she really was. In comparison to her character in the beginning of the plot Daisy was appearing all the time dressed up in white dresses and driving a white car, which show purity and innocence. But with the decision she took not to attent on Gatsby's funeral i could imagine Daisy with a styling of Gothic make-up which actually represents her truly personality.

Daisy Fashionable mood board

For me this mood board represent the glamour life of fashionable Daisy Buchanan.

Character Hairstyle
These are some pictures wich represent the possible hairstyle that I am going to create in the shooting, as Daisy was rich woman and in 20's rich women had this hair look.
The hairstyle is finger waves.

Finger waves practice in studio

I created this finger waves hairstyle for my practice in studio. It was very interesting for me and I loved the technic that I learned to create this hair look.
First step:  I washed the hair and I brushed them very well.
Second step:  With my hair comb and my fingers I created the shape and I clipped it to the whole head.
Third step:  I dried the hair very well
Fourth step:  I took off the clips

Celebrities with inspiration of 20's hairstyle

These are some images that I have found of celebrities who get the idea to create their hair finger waves from decede of 20's.

The Great Gatsby Ballet

Story ballets are bread and butter of tNorthern Ballet's repertory, and it's easy to see why choreographer David Nixon was tempted by The Great Gatsby. The clothes, the Jazz, dance music, the fatal love affair-much of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel seems tailor-made for ballet. As a fiction, however, Gatsby works through a subtle balance of irony, concealment and point of view. It's all in the language, but language, of course, is difficult to choreograph.
The Great Gatsby, choreographed by David Nixon OBE, is adapted from the classic novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. On New York's Island, in the heady, indulgent days of the 1920's, Nick Carraway comes to know his infamous neighbor Jay Gatsby.
