Evaluation of a
continuity make -up
On the 17th
of may 2013 I followed out my practical assessment of a continuity
make up my given scene to create was scene 3 set inside at night time
in a cook house my character was Mrs.Lovett from the production
Sweeney Todd.
The continuity make up
I carried out I think worked very well I stuck to my 90 minutes time
spectrum which I was very please about as I didn’t think I was
going to stick to it as it was a big make up.
Applying the bald cap
was tricky as I didn’t apply gel onto my models hair my reason for
this is the hair gel I was planning on using the only hair gel I had
,various products in the hair gel my model
had allergy’s too
therefore didn’t want to use it and cause a serious allergy
reaction. To get the hair out of the way to apply the bald cap
sufficiently I gripped the hair away from the face using hair grips.
The other problem I had with this continuity assessment was the first
time I completed it I made little holes in the bald cap to pull bits
of the hair through , however I couldn’t do this on the assessment
day as my chosen model had very poor week quality hair and if I would
have pulled it through the hair would have snapped and broken off
this would have left my model very unhappy therefore I didn’t do
this. throughout my assessment these where the only problems I came
across therefore I was very happy. If I was to do this make up again
I would have spent more time on the bald cap to make the overall
presentation look neat I would also find another product to stick the
hair down with which doesn’t contain a lot of common allergens that
way my bald cap would look smooth and realistic. Everything went
smoothly with the creation of a burn using latex and cotton wool
however making it look exactly the same as my first attempt was very
difficult, however I got over this and just worked with what I had to
make it look the same.
