Hi guys! De-Grudge was probably one of the exciting videos I created for my channel. The inspiration for the video came from my love of Sarah Michelle Gellar. She was always casted in horror films and The Grudge was probably one of the most unique horror films she's ever done. In asian culture, the focus of horror films are mainly spiritual. I agree because there are a lot of supernatural things in the Philippines also, where I came from. Anyway, this video was really fun creating because it's a mini production. Even though it's a small production, it was really challenging to create and a lot of work.
The house was carved from a box that I had. I tried getting details from the actual movie if not exact. I painted it white from our already existing paint and I covered the windows with this plastic sheet I cut off from a packaging of underwear. :P Haha! You heard right. But overall, looks like the miniature house went well. Since I didn't have professional lighting at that time, I just relied on our lamp, umbrella, and tin foil that I had in the kitchen. The shoji screen was moved several times around the house since that's all I had. You will find this in the hallway, the outside, and my bedroom.
I tried to make the set as interesting as possible and to make it look like I'm actually in Japan. hehe.. The only items I had were the standing and hanging shoji lamp, the display of the Japanese artwork on the wall of a woman, bamboos, and the divider. Here are some photos I took of my little set.
Here's a photo of me smiling on the set as I prepare to film.
Haha! My story for the make-up of De-Grudge. Make-up was from a local Party store called Alin Party. It's just basic white halloween make-up you can find at a local party or halloween store. The dark circles under my eyes was just charcoal from a local art store. Yes, I didn't have much of the big makeup then. You gotta improvise with what you have right? And hey, they work! The wig, I purchased from a local swap meet and you guys probably know that I used this wig several times in other videos.
Here's my behind the video of my Paro-Film called De-Grudge:
