Makeup for our Film
What could I have done better?
First of all I could have aliquoted more time to practicing the makeup so then it wasn't a rush to try to perfect the makeup before filming. Also, I should've watched more videos towards my level of understanding even though I watched beginner videos maybe I should have watched videos with less concepts. As it made it much harder to do the makeup as someone who just learned what each makeup tool was used for. Another thing that I could've done better is ask more of my friends to try the makeup on them as our cast is very inclusive so it's a bit harder to do makeup if I do not know skin tones. Also, I was missing some makeup equipment that definitelty could have helped to make the looks come out better. But at least I tried to finish the makeup without it looking like complete trash.
What Went Right?
For the makeup the thing that I think went right was definitely the foundation step. I got to be able to blend it out without any blemishes and made sure it looked alright. Also, I do feel like the lips went fine. For the detective style makeup (male makeup) I made sure not to use much product only a simple Chapstick to appeal to the mysterious look while also making it look more serious. For the bolder female look I made sure to include bolder makeup to the lips in order to give off that suspicious look. But because of not using the makeup the character conventions will be shown through their clothes and their body language throughout the film.
What does this mean towards our film?
This does mean that there is not going to be any makeup in this film besides the wound makeup. Unfortunately the makeup was way out of my league and doing both would make filming times longer and cause the actors to not want to come back.
