THIS WEEK'S WOW! [MAY 2004]

"MAY SPECIAL "

This year, third quarter has been split into three different classes for the makeup shop. There is an MFA makeup class (for graduate acting students who have not had a chance to take the two-quarter long sequence), an Advanced makeup course (for students who have already completed the year-long beginning makeup sequence) and the Costume Designers makeup class (which is a continuation of the two-quarter sequence geared towards designers.) Although these classes do not have specific "wow's," as you can see from the following photographs, they are all doing much that is "wow-worthy." Do enjoy....

Advanced Makeup students learn about face casting the goopy professional way...

The MFA students learn how to copy an image onto their faces and pose for the camera with their beautiful makeup work.

 

***

Advanced Makeup students welcome a special guest artist Shozo Sato for a three-part Kabuki makeup masterclass

The students pay careful attention to the techniques Sato demonstrates...

 

 

Costume Design student Caitlin displays traditional Kabuki costume with full makeup...

And soon find out that the goop dries rock-solid with the help of a hair-dryer.

 

 

Jessica and Jessie further their image copy-rendering skills with makeup with the Period Portrait assignment in the Costume Designer's class.

The end. See you next month!
