Emaciation makeup evaluation

For the emaciation makeup, I like how the makeup shows the cause of emaciations (for example: for the makeup shown in the image, I chose the cause to be an eating disorder, whereas if the cause was sickness, for example, the skin would have a greenish tone.).

To improve, I should try out emaciation but make the cause different to be able to understand fully what the effect would be for different causes (such as emaciation as a result of malnourishment). Another way in which I could improve would be to make sure the shaded areas look 'evened out' and add a little bit more depth to the eyes.

Considering this makeup was meant for screen, it would have needed to be a bit more subtle on the cheekbones, as the makeup appears to be too obvious. I would also have had to add some shading to the neck to show how other areas of the body are affected by this disorder.

Catwalk makeup evaluation

Catwalk makeup evaluation: What I like about this look is the eye makeup. The blue watercolour smudges help to show off the eye shape alongside the white eyeliner. I also like the eye makeup as the colours compliment each other. Another aspect of this makeup I like would be the shape of the contour on the cheeks as well as how the contour on the nose has been blended. Another point to make about the makeup is that the base makeup and eye makeup would work well for the catwalk as it would stand out on camera as well as under the lighting. However, for the contour on the cheeks, I think the triangles should be bigger to help it stand out more. I also should've used false eyelashes to help them stand out more, and colour them by applying a white base colour first and then colouring them lilac as they don't show up on camera.

LSOH meeting 12:

LSOH meeting 12: 19/05/2021 The day before the production. To start off this meeting, we began by checking through the production folder together to make sure we had everything we needed in there, including face charts, makeup designs, actors headshots and skin consultation sheets. It was important we had all of this in there as it was important we knew what makeup we were doing, how we would be applying it to the actors face and which products we needed to check for and organise. This showed good organisation skills as we were checking beforehand to make sure we had everything ready for the production nights. We then took some time to work in the LRC to polish up our blogs for a little while and add in anything we may have missed; this could include: adding in any missing images and any information on what we had discussed/decided on during previous meetings. It is important to keep track of all of this as it helps us keep track of what we have all worked on throughout the produ...
