STAGE MAKEUP CLASS PAGES 43: Veg Out and Watch Some Videos on Face Blindness

[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].

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!

Repeat Your Mantra: "There is NOTHING Wrong With My Face!"

Repeat Your Mantra: "There is NOTHING Wrong With My Face!"

There is a spectrum on this, and the brain ability to recognize famous faces and to recognize people you know are actually two different things.  You can for instance be a 10 at one form of face recognition, and a 3 at another….
