For the first 10 weeks of my new course the unit i am studying is based upon period makeup, specifically the Elizabethan era from the the 16th and early 17th century. The aim by the end of the 10 weeks is to be able to create a makeup look using the face/body to creatively show a contemporary twist on the the classic elizabethan looks, which will be judged based on a 2 hour long timed assessment. Therefore practice is key to really allow myself to know exactly what i'm doing and also to be able to complete the desired look effectively and within a timely manner. There is also a further twist to the assessment, each of us will not be creating our own design but one of our fellow artists designs based on an in detail brief and face chart in which they must provide.
We are expected from the start to work in an employable and professional manner as to help prevent bad habits. This unit will see us be assessed in a "social and cultural context" and help with skills such as communication and collaboration with fellow creatives, all skills of which are transferable to the industry.
