Burnin fever - Update

 Burnin fever - Update

Below is an image concerning the look of the "infected" people (people exposed to the hackers video that I would feature in my music video. Keeping with the themes of whimsy and fun, I would like to dress up my "infected" people in masks similar to the ones below.

What Particularly informed my decision to consider dressing the "infected" was the music video Genesis - Land Of Confusion which features characters with rubber caricature faces which convey a comic feel as well as conveying a slight sense of creepiness due to there exaggerated yet lifelike look. The mix of comedic value/fun mood with a tinge of creepiness and horror is something I feel would work well for the infected creatures depicted them as a threat as well as something funny. The masks chosen above I feel show this successfully with their funny and "cartoonish" subject matter but  with almost lifelike texture to them causing a feeling of uncanny valley.

To acquire such mask due to my budget  I have ordered one so far but I am currently in talks with my teacher about possibly investigating if my school drama department has some to lend.
