Props Preparation



This is the process of the making of on of our props for our main killer-a necklace of severed fingers. Our ingredients were moulding clay, latex and a paint brush. We tried two methods:
1) Pouring latex into a clay mould of a finger.
2) Painting a finger several times over to form a finger mould.

This is method 1. Here we moulded clay around our finger then poured latx inside.

Here we poured the excess latex out of the clay mould.


Here we started method 2. You can see Morin putting the first layer of latex onto Tiffany's finger.

Each time the latex was drying on the finger we had to put the brushes in water to stop the mouth sticking together.



Whilst the latex is drying on the finger, the second layer is poured into the clay mould







We then proceeded with the same coat and dry effect on the finger until the latex was ready to come off the finger.
