Fall Festival 2012
Ashley Ding
Tyler and Iris preparing their zombie makeup before their costume debut at the Fall Festival. Preparation is taking place
in the secondary art room.
Cindy donning her bloody Little Red Riding Hood costume. She took her dress from the year before and ripped it up/bloodied it, assuming the role of a severely abused rendition of the classic fairytale
Pre-festival PrepTaylor and Emy half done with their scary/gory makeup for their costume.
Taylor, is touching up her deranged clown face makeup, while Emy catches glimpse of her own post-teacher-rage-corpse-student getup. Take notice of the
ruler lodged in her forehead and the broken pencils penetrating her neck.
Prep PartyEverybody is engrossed in their own
makeup and preparation. On the table are piles of face paint and makeup
supplies, all displayed for public use.
Zipper Face!Iris is finished with her amazing zipper-face makeup. The zipper that she’s attached to her face with eyelash-paste unveils the bloody raw flesh beneath her skin.
VooDoo Markings Etching tattoos (just kidding, just eyeliner) onto the back of Caragh, who’s
going as a Voodoo witch. She plans to scare the life out of little kids on the haunted drive which she is working in later on.
Spider Eyes Beautiful Olivia dresses up as Arachnid-Girl and wears simple makeup with cobwebs extending from her eyes. Preparation takes place in the bathroom, after being locked out of the art room.
Skull Austin rocks some hardcore skull makeup (which involved lots of white and black cream makeup) before going off to scare some little kids.
Sugar Skull
Personal makeup finished. Inspired by the sugar skull
makeup done during Day of the Dead in Mexico. A combination
of face paint, eyeliner, and concealer stick
Thriller CrowdAn audience of parents and students gather around the classic Thriller
dance performance presented by some very talented elementary dancers

nights. A wonderful Fall Festival 2012!
