Learn all the basics of stage makeup that every theater kid should have in their tool kit in this fun and interactive stage makeup class! Each week we will explore a different type of makeup application with a brief teacher lecture on important information about this look followed by an interactive step by step tutorial. By the end of each class, students will have a finished stage makeup look that they can photograph and share! Students will learn to create professional face charts for each look and will be able to begin building a collection of face charts that they can access in the future to make recreating these looks easier. We will also cover stage makeup theory, how to care for your skin to prevent breakouts or other problems when wearing makeup and discuss adaptations and alternatives using different products and tools. Impress friends, drama teachers, and directors with your stage makeup know how and add completion of this class to your theater resume! Class 1: Makeup 101: Skin prep, basic application and makeup theory Class 2: Female glamour stage makeup Class 3: Male stage makeup and female to male transformation (including making facial hair with makeup) Class 4: Injury stage makeup: Black eyes, cuts, bruises, etc Class 5: Old age makeup
Learning Goals
By the end of this course students will have a comprehensive understanding of basic stage makeup theory and will be able to execute 5 very different stage makeup looks. They will gain skills for more successful application, how to use different products for different effects, and have a foundation that they can use to build more looks of their own in the future. They will learn to create face charts for makeup looks like a makeup professional and will have the beginning of a stage makeup portfolio.
