You are thinking right now: “Ok…….we keep getting these. Is there going to be a test later? Should I take notes? Why isn’t there a quiz right after the “Veg Out”? What are we expected to do with these????!!!!”
Be Calm. There is no test, no quiz, and you can skip these videos if you don’t have time for them. These are all just cool food for thought that you may enjoy. I find the more I learn factually about faces the better I can see them, work with them, and achieve our ideal of enlightenment. So, I share these with you so you may do the same…. if you have the time, watch and enjoy.
If you do not, chill, and repeat Your Mantra: There is NOTHING Wrong With My Face!

Apply the Angry or Negative themed Aged Character Makeup to your face (or your model’s face) based on your makeup rendering.
Go to the hallway with your rendering and have Tara take your photos.
If you do your makeup at home, give yourself over to doing a serious photo shoot on this project, because (in my experience), this makeup is often the one where the ideas you have been absorbing for weeks finally “click” and people do a great makeup. Give yourself time to get some perfect clear photos from many angles (including with your rendering) and upload at least the best 3 to this assignment. Dig up a bit of impromptu costuming and/or props from around your house for best results in your home photo shoot. It is OK to have a friend take your photos, but if they do, MAKE THEM WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW!!!
This is a reminder of how to get good photos of your work:

Definition: Makeup rendering- drawing of a makeup design one intends to execute
Draw a color makeup rendering on one of your personalized face outline sheets, a generic outline sheet. or freehand, or with computer software of your planned Angry or Downbeat Aged Character Makeup Design. You may base your Angry or Downbeat aged character on a character from a play, or novel, or a real person. Any character is fine so long as they use elements of one or more downbeat emotions like anger, frustration, hate, disgust, fear, sadness, etc. in the design. It is OK to alter or even abandon your design if you find there are problems once you try it on your face, but still do a rendering. Bring your rendering out in the hallway to be photographed with your makeup. If you do this project at home, photograph your rendering (preferably alongside your finished face makeup as shown above). Submit the photo through the link below . Remember afterwards to also to save any research you did as well as the rendering assignment into your digital Makeup Morgue so you build up your morgue/portfolio gradually and easily over the course of the semester.

This is the official class how-to video. Again it has pieces of advice that apply to all skin colors, ages and gender identities, but you may want to watch more than this video of you don’t happen to be a middle aged white chick, and/or want to express a downbeat emotion other than anger :
BONUS! STUDENT NOTES ON THIS OLD AGE VIDEO (SO YOU DON”T NEED TO TAKE THEM): Old Age Notes.pdfActions
NEW! Video of how to make your wrinkle lines less “line-y”:
Happily, I have found a number of other videos of different sorts of age makeup for different downbeat types of characters and different types of faces! Scroll down to see if you find any you think you’d like to watch!
This one is based on the “Witch” disguise of the evil Queen in Snow white which looks very predatory:
This makeup is inspired by the same Disney character:
and yes, a third makeup inspired by the same animated character from Snow White:
This seems to be a nice character with a very sad looking face:
This makeup is kind of attractive looking, yet emphasizes a look of disapproval:
More sad than angry:
Woman does a great Angry Scrooge with a false nose:
Not actually a tutorial, but an inspiring slideshow of all the old ladies in a production of The Madwoman of Chaillot:
This one combines Age makeup with Female to Male Transformation!:
