Stage Makeup Class Pages 4: There Is Nothing Wrong With Your Face!

[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].

Watch this video where I explain the whole theme of the class in the weirdest way possible:

Grab a mirror and start making faces.  Don’t be shy, go for it!:

Man pulling face
Laughing Jester
Two court fools grimacing.

Think that I’m telling you to do something I don’t do myself?  WRONG!

Tara wiggles her lips from side to side

Then watch this video and start to feel your face to find the bony bits:

So, now, feel your face, and the bones and muscles as you move your face.  Find the indent near the back of your jaws, find the subtle ins and outs of your forehead, the edges of your eye sockets.  Feel the bone and cartilage of your nose and the location of your brow ridge in relation to your eyebrows.  In the next few days, whenever you feel tense, pull out a mirror, flex and massage your face and start looking at the interesting component parts.  It is relaxing, and will help you in the coming weeks!


Always remember,

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR FACE!!!
