Shen Te/Shui Ta Mask

This was different from the mask for Oedipus. I think it was just because we got a lot more freedom for that. I mean, we got to choose the character and the scene but for this it had to be specifically for Shen Te's other personality, Shui Ta. This was difficult because it was hard to create a mask that seemed like an Asian man and was realistic enough for the audience to believe that all the other characters in the play would be fooled by a mere mask and change of clothing. I could not get it to seem realistic no matter what I did, but I think it could be achieved if the mask was made like how Robin William's face mask thing was made in Mrs. Doubtfire. It would need to be made of rubber and be molded from an actual face which I do not have the means or ability to do. However, I drew my mask with deep, long eyebrows to give it a more angry and manly aura. I also added a goatee and mustache to make it obvious that the man was Asian as well as a braid. I do not think that I got the right time period since the play did not seem to be set in like the time period that those Chinese dramas where they have funny accents are set in but there was no other way to make him seem Asian (or at least I can't quite seem to think of a way to).
