In this colorful one-time class, we'll work step-by-step to master a full face SFX look! Class will begin with a brief study of cartoon contouring and fine line detailing. We will then work through each step of the makeup application together, with the instructor providing live tutorial and feedback. By the end of class, we’ll all look like we stepped straight off the page. A structured notes page and access to tutorial guides ensure this SFX technique is learned for life!
