Body Painting Competition

In February we did a bodypainting competition. We got given a brief to create a look from different titles. The titles we were given were - tv and film, starsigns and the elements. I chose to do a character from a film, I decided on 'The Queen of Hearts' from Alice In Wonderland. I also used a hairpiece to make my models hair stay big with lots of volume. I used diamantes and glitter to add to my look.

This is a picture of my finished look.

Christmas Panto

Before christmas the drama students in the college put on a pantomime, our classes did the make up for the show. This was my first real commercial experience where i had to design and apply a stage character make-up. I worked in a group with Gemma from my class and 2 other girls from the other class. We were assigned a 'good genie' character. We decided on a look that had big structured eyebrows and a moustache. We had a practise run for their dress rehersal the day before, and the next day I did the make-up for their big performance.

This is a picture of the make-up i did for the performance.
