  • Paige

  • Stephen

  • Abigail

During this meeting, we discussed the completed schedule for the show. This included who will be available on which production days, what time we have to be there for, what time we will be starting the hair and the makeup, when the show starts and the estimated time of the interval.

We began by figuring out who will be available to work on which production days. On Thursday the 20th, Kassie, Emily, Leah, Isobel, Stephen, Paige, Eleanor, Francesca, Charlotte and myself will all be attending the first day. This then led us into who will be doing which makeup: Paige and I will be doing the makeup for Audrey Two, Francesca and Eleanor will be working together to do the hair, makeup and black eye for Audrey, Stephen will be doing the makeup for Seymour, Eleanor will be doing the hair and makeup for Orin, Kassie will be doing the hair and makeup for Mrs Luce, Isobel, Charlotte and Leah will be working together to do the hair and makeup for The Girls and Emily will be doing the hair, makeup and prosthetic nose for Mrs Mushnik.

On Friday the 21st (second and final night of the show), Kassie, Emily, Leah, Isobel, Stephen, Paige, Hannah, Amy and myself will be attending the second day of the production. This then led us into who will be doing which makeup: Paige and I will be doing the makeup for Audrey Two, Kassie will be doing the hair and makeup for Mrs Luce, Emily will be doing the hair, makeup and prosthetic nose for Mrs Mushnik, Leah and Isobel will be working on the makeup for The Girls, Stephen will be doing the hair and makeup for Orin and Seymour, Hannah and Amy will be working together to do the hair, makeup and black eye for Audrey. 

This is important to know as if anyone is absent, we will be able to see when someone would be available to fill in for them.

We then moved on to discussing the time we needed to be there. On Thursday, we were expected to be there by 11am to be able to do the hair for the actors dress rehearsal. We had decided to only do the hair for the dress rehearsal rather than hair and makeup as we wanted to keep the makeup looking ‘fresh’ for the actual performance at 7pm. On Friday, we were expected to be there at 2:30pm to get both the hair and makeup done before the show at 7pm.

Then, we talked about the interval. We had approximately 15 minutes to apply any changes to the characters makeup before they got back to performing. This helped us get an idea of how we were going to apply the changes, and how much we could do in the space of 15 minutes. Paige and I were originally going to add rhinestones and glitter to the makeup as well as darken the contour and change the shape of the eyebrows, however, we decided that we will not have enough time to complete this and decided to stick to just using the rhinestones and glitter instead.


After that, we all practiced the makeup for each of the characters. Francesca, Isobel and Kassie worked on Hannah, Leah and Eleanor first, then switched places to make sure they all got some practice in. They did the makeup for The Girls. Stephen worked on himself to practice the makeup for the male characters. Paige and I had decided to work on ourselves to test out different ideas we had for the Audrey Two makeup. 

As seen in the image above, Paige had decided to use green eyeliner, green eyebrows gradient to brown and a different lip shape.

As seen in the image above, I had decided to try out black eyeliner, brown eyebrows and a rounder lip shape.


Once we had completed this makeup, taken photos of it, and gathered feedback from our peers, we went to discuss these ideas with the director, Tom as well as what he envisions for Audrey Two..

He had agreed on brown eyebrows, green eyeliner and the lip shape shown in the makeup Paige had created. These all affect the makeup as we will need to make sure these changes work on the face of the actress. To do this, we created a design using a trace of the actors face to get a good idea on how to apply this makeup.

This shows teamwork, collaboration and contribution as Paige and I discussed all of our ideas with the director and created a design together to show how this makeup will work on the actresses face.

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

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. Edit: 23/05/2021

One colour challenge evaluation

  Instagram one colour challenge evaluation: What I like about this look is the way I have coloured the eyebrows. Before applying the blue colour itself, I used colour corrector and concealer to lighten the eyebrows so that the blue will show up better on the hairs. I also like the contour of this look as I think it has been blended out nicely. However, I don’t like the eyeshadow as although I tried to use three different colours of blues on the eyes, they all look like just one colour. Therefore, to improve this look, I would use lighter variants of blue to make sure they stand out better. This also wouldn't work on photograph as the difference in the colour variants aren't bold enough in real life to show up on camera unless the photographs were taken up close. Edit: 26/02/2021
