What to do:


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 Animal Makeup Design and upload a copy here. (Please remember no super simple cartoon animals like Happy Bunny or Hello Kitty, or those ubiquitous sexy Xmas party deer please.) 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. When you do your makeup also do a photograph with your rendering (alongside your finished face makeup) as shown above so you can have one of these cool pictures to go in your portfolio.

What to do:


Research a real animal face (no Hello Kittys or Happy Bunnies or sexy Xmas Party Deer, or super simple cartoon critters). Find multiple angles of photos of the animal, and if possible also see if there are good ideas for makeup for that animal for inspiration as well. If you are replicating a pet take photos of your pet to upload.

Upload 3-4 of your best photos  of the animal you found/took here using the link below.

Remember: This project is intended to stretch your ability to design and execute a makeup that will have you change the seeming shape of your face with 2-d paint.  This means NO super simplified cartoon critters like cartoon “Happy Bunny” or “Hello Kitty”, or the pretty but cartoonish “Fauns” and  “Sexy Xmas Reindeer” makeup tutorials that do not do this face shape change.  You can do cartoon stylized animals in a Face Paint assignment, but this assignment you should base on actual faces of real animals and NOT stylized Cartoons or Xmas Party Deer!

 This is the official class how-to video, naturally, it is an awesome how-to for replicating the face of my deceased and much beloved cat Shoelace.   It also has a lot of useful advice on this project assignment.  However, if you are hoping to replicate a different animal you may ALSO want to watch other amazing videos, like these:

And remember NO SEXY XMAS PARTY DEER, No Happy Bunnies, Bugs Bunny, No Hello Kitties!


Stylization is good, just keep it only simplified to a degree the great Irene Corey (Links to an external site) would approve of.

  • Draw in outline & color on your face sheet based on a merging of the photos of the animal and the stylization concepts you observed in your previous Non Western stylized makeup .
  • Apply makeup to your face to make your Animal Makeup.
  • Do a short photo shoot to get fabulous photos of your makeup & rendering.
  • Upload your photos to the makeup and rendering assignment pages.

PLEASE NOTE:

This project is intended to stretch your ability to design and execute a makeup that will have you change the seeming shape of your face with 2-d paint.  This means no super simplified cartoon critters like cartoon “Happy Bunny” or “Hello Kitty”, or the pretty but cartoonish “Fauns” and  “Sexy Xmas Reindeer” makeup tutorials that do not do this face shape change.  You can do cartoon stylized animals in the upcoming Face Paint assignment, but this assignment you should base on actual faces of real animals and NOT stylized Cartoons or Xmas Party Deer!
