Red carpet smokey eye evaluation

 Red carpet smokey eye evaluation:



What I like about this look is how the eyeshadow is blended to show light colours and darker ones and how it has been blended into the eye socket. I also like the cheek and jaw contour of this look as it isn’t too light, but it isn’t too dark either, therefore, it doesn’t take the attention away from the eye makeup. Another aspect of the makeup I like would be the lip colour as it doesn’t stand out too much, it also compliments the eye makeup, helping to balance it all out.


However, I think the nose contour should be slightly darker as in comparison to the cheek and jaw contour, as it looks non-existent. Another part of the makeup that I think could use some improvement would be the eyelashes. This is because, up close, the eyelashes haven’t been applied properly. Another aspect that has room for improvement would be the base makeup as the foundation is too thin and this shows up on camera, especially with the flash on.

Pantomime Dame makeup evaluation

  For the pantomime dame makeup, I like the outcome of the eye makeup, the orange especially, because I like how it has been blended from dark to light. I also like the eyeliner both on the eyelid and below the eye, including the white, as it enhances the eye shape and size. However, I need to improve on being able to cover up my eyebrows and raising the drawn on ones further up my forehead as they were too far down. I also need to darken the contouring on the cheeks and the jaw. I also think I should darken the outline of the lips too as it isn’t as visible as it should be. This makeup would be suitable for a small and medium sized stage and audience as it can be seen from far enough away. The colours could also work underneath certain stage lights as they wont be blended together. edit: 23/05/2021

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...
