Actors So Far

Victim 1

The actress playing victim 1 is Sylvie Markes, she has large gloomyeyes and a look of innocence about her.

This is her in costume and with makeup. She has very little make-up to show her youth and virginal qualities. The red lipstick dramatizes the look. I also curled her hair slightly. Her dress has a timeless quality to it, and the colour goes really well with her pale skin tone.

The detective

The actor playing the detective is Savanh Phaophanit. He is handsome, and has a young and fresh but at the same time sophisticated look about him.

Savanh pictured above in costume and make-up. I made him look paler and styled his hair in a more formal manner. The detective is dressed elegantly in monochrome colours, to signify his ability to be impartial. He wears a velvet cape. He also holds a top hat in his hand.

His wife

His wife is played by Melissa Thompson, who is pretty and has an iconic, memorable face.

The Gravedigger

The grave digger is played by Eddie Markes. A great actor who can undertake cameo roles brilliantly.

I used brown makeup on his face to make him look dirty, put black beneath his fingernails. Gave him black-outs for his teeth, roughed his eyebrow hair up, and darkened his eyes. He wears tatty clothing, almost as though its the clothing he's taken from the dead. He wears a delicately patterned embroidered waistcoat over a collarless shirt, with a cravat and a brown cape and finally a creased black hat. I gave him rosary beads, for being a gravedigger he would want to protect himself from evil spirits. His costume is predominantly made up of different shades of brown, to relate him to the earth at which he labors. He carries a lit wooden lantern.
