[This page is part of a mirror of my Canvas learning system pages I created for my Drama 112 Intro Stage Makeup class at DVC. If you want to use this content for another Canvas class shell you can find it in Canvas Commons by searching for “Tara Maginnis” and you can download all or part of this directly into your shell with all the extra cool formatting of colored divider lines, right side embedded Giphy animations, etc. already put in, if you are working with a different system, it is ok to copy and paste from here, and then customize the pages as you need for your classes].
This week I asked you to do some very weird stuff, which will hopefully help bend your mind into shape going forward.
You have:
- Started internalizing your new mantra “There is NOTHING Wrong with my Face!”
- Made lots of stretchy and emotive faces at home in the mirror.
- Learned how to do corrective makeup for your face.
Next week we will be starting on a three week set of age makeup lessons, so you should start now at looking a old people faces (particularly those who are related to you) to mentally prepare you for this all-important section of the class!
You will find the weeks going forward will tend to follow a steady and simple pattern, where you get to play with your face:
- You will always watch an assigned video, and then choose from some supplemental videos to adapt the instructions to your face.
- You will usually be assigned to do a little bit of research online to find images to inspire you.
- You will usually be assigned to draw what you plan to do on one of your Face Outline Sheets
- You will always be assigned to do a makeup on yourself or on a human model you provide.
- We will always do a brief photo shoot to get good pictures of your makeup, (or you will do one at home.)
