Instructional methods: Because this class is usually
larger than the makeup classroom can fit, the class will be divided
into two groups staggered to rotate in the class space for much of the
semester. Students in each group will begin by viewing a video demo in
the men’s dressing room next door, where my virtual self will show you
how to do a style of theatrical makeup. At the next class meeting you
will spend time in the makeup room working on your own face (or that of a
volunteer you bring to class) and getting help from the real “live” me
in how to do the assigned makeup. Other classes are done in a single
large group where indicated in the calendar.
If You Miss an Assignment: What To Do: If you miss a
day in class, or have a planned event (going to KCACTF, your cousin’s
wedding, etc.) that will make you miss a future event, go on to Canvas
to the weekly Module for the lost time and watch the how to videos
asap. You can do the project at DVC when I (Tara) am here and I’ll
take photos of you, or you may do the project at home. If you do the
latter, please watch the short video on Canvas, taking your own photos
to help you get the best pictures possible.
Videos: If you miss a video demo, please hasten to see it before you get behind. You may come into the costume studio during Tara’s hours listed above and ask to watch the disk in one of the dressing rooms, or you can download a lesson or lessons at home online at the provided links on Canvas, or you can also purchase DVD copies of the Theatrical Makeup Design Interactive video demonstrations we show in class at http://TheatricalDesign.com
Tickets to DVC shows: Either viewing or taking part
in the two shows of the current semester are requirements, you can
purchase tickets for these shows through the bookstore, box office, or
ideally, sign up on the volunteer board in the Greenroom and serve as
ushers to a performance to see it for free.
Book: A Guide for Makeup by Robin and Stuart Carlson, 1982 available as a free PDF at https://archive.org/details/guideformakeup00cars depending on your learning needs I can also assign, loan and/or recommend alternate books to help you with study in special areas, or for better academic understanding. If you have a special need for word-based learning, step by step photo how-to info, or are mainly interested in sfx makeup or body painting, chances are I have a book that will help you.

|
DRAMA-112 Stage Makeup Minimum Required Materials: Full-size deluxe crème (oil-based) student theatrical make-up kit. Every major theatrical makeup company makes excellent deluxe student makeup kits. They cost $60-90. If you already have bought a full-size student theatrical makeup kit like the ones required, feel free to use it, the choice of brand is immaterial to this class, though Ben Nye is my personal favorite. Kits like these are available at the DVC Bookstore by request at the counter, in person at Encore Theatrical Supply in Pleasanton or at Kryolan in San Francisco, or ordered online from many suppliers including Ben Nye, Mehron, Graftobian, & Kryolan
• https://www.stagemakeuponline.com
• https://www.mehron.com
• https://us.kryolan.com
Label all the parts of your kit with your name or initials. Note: If you are allergic or hyper sensitive to oil-based makeup you may substitute a water-based kit like Mehron All-Pro Starblend Theatrical Makeup Kit, or Ben Nye Theatrical Cake Makeup Kit. However, these kits are more difficult to use, and sometimes more expensive, so do not do this on a mere whim. 4 or more flat nylon/takelon angled or straight “shader” brushes about 1/4”–1/2” wide, labeled with your name, for having a brush for each color you use. Note: You can usually get this type of brush in a package with other inexpensive brushes at big art and/ or crafts stores like Michaels or Jo-Ann. By going to their web site coupon pages before you go to the store
: • http://www.michaels.com/coupon
• http://www.joann.com/coupon
you can usually get either a 40% or 50% off coupon that will make such a packet of brushes very inexpensive. Michaels.com also sells a good (no discount) $5 bag of suitable brushes both in store and online at http://www.michaels.com
2 or more packages of makeup remover towelettes labeled with your name for getting makeup off your face. You can get this at any Dollar store unless you have special skin needs. Keep them fresh by “burping” and resealing them each time you remove a towel. Huggies Baby wipes are also OK. A jar of cold cream labeled with your name for brush cleaning. $ store. 2 or more wash cloths or ripped up towel pieces labeled with your name for brush cleaning. White ones’ work best. A portable mirror for doing makeup in impromptu locations, labeled with your name. A $ store is your friend again: it is easy to make one by transposing an easel back from a picture frame to a same sized framed mirror. A small container to hold water, like a recycled yogurt cup, can or folding cup, labeled with your name. Pull something out of a recycle bin. A binder to hold your makeup renderings, your research images, and photos of your work for the Morgue/Portfolio project. A container like a tool box, large cosmetic bag, Zip-lockor even a cardboard shoe box, labeled with your name. (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Pencil sharpener & colored pencils (or crayons) for doing your makeup renderings. Small scissors for cutting crepe hair. A big safety pin for slicing cuts in scar wax. Dental floss for removing nose and scar wax. You can, and likely should, plump up your kits with any interesting and/or cheap Halloween or street makeup you already have, or find cheaply during the semester. Fall is an especially good season for picking up neat stuff like this at Hot Topic, CVS, Claire’s, Icing, etc. and at big box retail stores and “Dollar” stores in the “seasonal” departments in October. Spring is less so, but not empty of opportunity. |
Disability Statements: “Students who require
alternative formats for course materials or adaptive equipment because
of a specific disability can request them through the Disability Support
Services office. The High Tech Center in LC-‐107 is an adaptive
technology computer lab available for students with disabilities and is
open Monday-Thursday from 9am-‐5pm, and Fridays from 9am-‐1pm. Please
contact Carrie Million in LC 112 or at 925‐685-1230 ext. 2553 for more
information”. (You can also ask me for any sort of help or materials
you need if you have a learning difficulty that I can possibly fix for
your needs. For example, if you have a need for a quiet space for
sensory overload or anxiety, you can go to the “Welcome to Vienna”
storage room in the back of the PA1 costume studio & close the door
and/or turn off lights. -Tara).
Students who wear Glasses: Some students who wear
glasses (other than reading glasses) find the mirrors in our makeup room
are inadequate for clear vision without glasses. Other students also
sometimes find this to be true. If you wear glasses, and are having
trouble with our mirrors, you can try my standing magnifying mirror with
built in light and/or my two pairs of “makeup glasses” to help you,
before deciding which of these types of vision aid to buy at your local
drugstore for home use.
Students with Beards and/or skin problems: If at
any time, for any reason, you want to avoid doing the assigned makeup on
your own face, you may bring in a volunteer whom you have recruited for
the purpose. Some students have elected to do this for a full semester
with one volunteer, or intermittently with several. If you already
have a beard you will need to plan on finding a volunteer on which to
apply a beard for your group’s Beard Makeup Day, or apply crepe hair to
another part of your face or body to do the project.
Grading: Grading is based on a system of points given for successful completion of assignments.
Evaluation: Project assignments will be graded based on Completion (Is the project really
done, or have important steps been left unfinished? Did you make an
honest effort to do the assignment as described, or have you ignored the
criteria?)

Combined Makeup Morgue/Portfolio Project: Throughout
the semester, gather images from magazines, books and/or online that
you find inspiring or useful for research, on the makeup research topics
we cover. Save them in your binder along with your makeup renderings
and photos of your completed projects and the binder may be turned in
for 30 pts of credit during the final exam period. You will get the
binder back as soon as it is graded, the very same day. You
may also do this project in alternate electronic forms such as web page
portfolios, Pinterest boards, PowerPoint presentations or organized
file folders that I can view.
Student Code of Conduct: Learn your new Mantra:
“There is nothing wrong with my face.”
While a makeup class is an appropriate place to discuss age, race,
disease, genetics, smoking, drinking, gender, acne, tattoos, body issues
and lots of other hot button topics as they relate to the human face,
that is not a license to give anyone a hard time about any of these
issues. Please treat this class as a supportive therapy group that can
help you learn to accept, and revel in, your face. Help your classmates
do the same.

Mythical Creature Makeup Final Project:
Create a makeup for a God, a Fairy, a Mythical Beast or Alien, that
combines elements from the natural world (characteristics of animals,
plants or minerals) and humanoid appearance. The skin should have a color, texture or pattern that is not normally human. You may use store-bought or home-made prosthetics or stencils if you wish. Some examples you may wish to think about:
Rawhead and Bloody Bones, blood running down face,
skinless (?) With bones poking out. Shaves or scalps bad children as
they sleep, eats runaway children.
Jenny Greenteeth, river-hag or lake monster, green skin, long seaweed hair, sharp green teeth, turns into pond and duckweed to drown people.
The Ao Ao, a cursed hybrid of man and sheep with fangs, devours mountain travelers.
The Lorelei, a beautiful but deadly mermaid who lures sailors to steer their boats onto the rocks to drown and be devoured.

Dragons, both good and bad, are fire breathing
reptiles, some with the ability to fly or transform into human shapes.
In Asia, they are a symbol of virtue and power, in Christian Europe a
symbol of the devil.
Tsukumogami are Japanese objects of ordinary
household use, that have acquired a living soul after 100 years of
faithful service to man. Usually harmless spirits, they may act up or
play tricks on their owners if they feel neglected, ill-treated or
rejected because they have broken. These include Morinji-no-okama (a possessed tea-kettle), Zorigami (a possessed clock), Kyorinrin (possessed papers or scrolls) and others.
Gargoyles Architectural representations of imaginary monsters in stone.
Klingons Warrior-cultured aliens from Star Trek.
The Phoenix A beautiful bird spirit found in many
cultures. Associated with female characteristics in Japan where they
are often included in bridal dress patterns, in China they are the
symbol of the Empresses of old, in Russia, it is the Firebird,
associated with the Fire Flower, a symbol of female and natural
reproductive power, and in Western tradition, it is symbolic of rebirth
after disaster, especially fire, which is why it is the symbol of San
Francisco, depicted on the City’s flag.
Goblins In Oz, underground mining creatures made of
stone, fearful of eggs, in Harry Potter, small magical bankers and
silversmiths who resent their 2nd class treatment by wizards.
The Green Man Pre-Christian British god of the forest, frequently depicted as part tree, especially oak.
An Alicanto, is a mythic Chilean night-flying bird
that feeds on gold, silver, and jewels, and has the sparkling iridescent
feathers and eyes to show for it. If a miner follows an alicanto
without being caught, he may find silver or gold; however, if the
alicanto discovers him, the bird will guide him off a cliff, and he will
fall to his death.
Raven/Coyote Native American trickster spirits with
superpowers that include an ability to appear human. However, their
greatest powers are an ability to fool the wicked, and seduce the
beautiful.
The Tin Woodsman, Tic-Tock the Clockwork Man, and other mechanical and or metal men from Oz and elsewhere.
Coppelia, an attractive 18th Century girl automaton doll (or a real girl pretending to be one).
A Kitsune-tsuki is a Japanese fox spirit, usually a
represented as beautiful woman with fox like features (into which foxes
were supposed to be able to transform), or a real woman, possessed by a
fox.
Plataea an ugly, but lovesick, swamp nymph. Sweet
but plain, often played by a man in drag, she must be funny, but
touching, ugly, yet appealing, and visually connected to her role as a
swamp dwelling aquatic nymph. She thinks she is fabulously beautiful.
Villja, a supernaturally beautiful Middle-European
forest nymph with long hair and the ability to drive men mad with
unobtainable desire.
The Green Lady, a British ghost or woodland spirit
similar to a Villja in that her beauty has a hypnotic effect on men, but
she also sometimes drains them of life like a soul-draining vampire.
Hombre Gato, an Argentinian Cat-Man, similar to a
werewolf, in that he transforms from human into Cat-Man at night, and
preys on those traveling the streets after dark.
Yuki-onna the snow ghost of Japan takes the form of a
beautiful girl as white and blue as the ice and snow she dwells in, she
may kill a traveler by a kiss, freezing him instantly.
Snegourichka the Russian “Snow-Girl” of 19th Century folktales was similar in melting properties to the American Frosty the Snowman,
an immortal snow maiden, who melts near fire, or when love fills her
heart, or instead becomes human and mortal because of love. In the
Soviet era, she was transformed into the perky and plucky Granddaughter
of Ded Morotz (Father Frost), the tall, thin, doddering Santa-Claus type figure associated with the New Year.
The Mishibizhiw, the Under Water Lynx/Great Water
Panther of the Great Lakes region, is the king of all North American
lake monsters with a body like a Lynx with fish scales on it’s back, a
face like a man with a fur mane, glowing red eyes, horns, and a long
spiky tail like a dragon with a fish tail end. Their roar sounds like
water, and copper comes from them, if angered they cause storms that can
kill travelers.
The Impundulu or “Lightning Bird” of Africa is a huge black and white bird demon-vampire, that can transform to a handsome young man and call down lightning.

I once presented papers at two conferences on the same weekend in Los Angeles. One was a UCLA Conference on Burlesque, the other a Strippers Convention!
