Some facts to know about the Irish Banshee:
- The Banshee roams the countryside and can be heard wailing when she predicts a death.
- One of the banshees guises is a young beautiful women.
- She is dressed in a grey or white hooded cloak.
- Her mourning cries can be heard usually at night when someone is about to die.
- It is believed by many that she only appears to a select number of families.
- She has long hair. Some described hair that she can run a comb hair through.
- Her Eyes are raw/red from her crying.
- The banshees stature is short.
- she may be dressed in white with a ghastly complexion.
I have hired Ramsay Faust to play the banshee. She is of Irish Decent and she fits the role quite well.
I went into Photoshop and created some concepts. I wanted to make The banshee a little more cryptid than usual. So i'm taking the red eyes Idea and making the glow within the black outline of Ramsay's eyes.
This photo was from the first costume fitting. Me and Zeta went costume shopping for the shoot. Zeta had put together the costume for the banshee.
A few days later Zeta tested makeup. This was the Result.
I liked to the way it was going. When we started shooting the Makeup would change.
Here was a concept of the Banshee Screaming.
And finally here is Ramsay in full costume. (Ft. Oshin)
I'm very happy with the results.
