[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].
Explanation:
- Apply your makeup as per your Research and rendering.
- Have Tara take your photo in the hallway with your rendering. If you are doing this at home…
- Scrounge for items like fabric, clothing, plain t shirt or props that may be good for photos. For this project you may do best simply with a black t-shirt and a mirror to get photos like these as described in the home photo how-to video:
- Do your photo shoot on this project, either taking lots of selfies (including some where you hold your makeup rendering next to your finished makeup) or ideally have a household member take your photos. If they do, make them watch the video below and be sure they are taking your photos with the zoom setting that will flatten and widen your face if you are doing an Asian based theatre makeup and you don’t happen to have an Asian face.
- Post your best 3-4 photos to the link below, and to the next assignment.
- This video is a reminder of how to get good photos of this assignment:
