I have drawn some ideas to decide which look I prefer. I have taken inspiration from many things from this era but David Bowie especially with the hair styling due to the fact he was such an inspirational icon of the 70's due to his fashion sense and sexual orientation.
Drawing number one
Wavy/curly hair with volume at the front and left the curls to hang loose on her back...
Drawing Two
Eyebrows are half blocked out with a bold colour on top to match the hair. Hair is short and cropped giving her an androgynous look. Heavy contouring around the eyes and cheek bones.
Drawing three
This one is my favourite as it reflects the characters innocence at this point in her life. I want the hair to look like her mother has cut it so uneven and slightly wild. This will also represent her emotions and confusion within herself. The eyebrows will be blocked completely and heavy contouring around the eyes and cheekbones will give her a contrasting harsh look.
When thinking about location and positioning, for my first shot I am wanting to represent her innocence and confusion. I want the character to look almost disconnected to her surroundings. For example this first image shows her standing out with her contrasting bright ginger hair and pink coat against the stone and brick building (the church). I want the model to be holding an orange in her hand like a child would to reflect the name of the book and the hold her mother has one her at this point.
This second drawing is inside the church where my character will look like she is praying in church sat in the isles. There will be a couple of rows behind her and a statue or a bold ornament which shows where she is. The orange will be held up near her face like she is showing it to God. This shot will be much more intimate showing the audience her character.
