There is also a progression with his make-up. In the opening of the film he is heavily scarred and monstrous, but over the course of the next 220 years, his scarring slowly becomes less disfiguring. This is not about making the Frankenstein character look frightening and using his physical appearance to scare people and drive the story (as in other stories) his physical disfigurement in this story is there to identify him as the Frankenstein character it is his branding. But the purpose of the Frankenstein creature goes deeper 'than the face value" of the character in this retelling, it is his "humanity" that is important and the center of the film's journey. The film studio and production were very hands on in this development and wanted to make sure the look fitted into the aesthetic of the story they wanted to tell.
