Lighting

Lighting is one of the biggest factors within photographic makeup you must consider the following when creating a look fit for photographic purposes:

Brightness – The brighter the lighting the lighter the makeup pigment will appear – application will need to be strong and heavier

Heat – Spot lights or back lights on set can be hot so it is important that the makeup used is correct for these conditions – avoid oily makeup. Powder will be needed to reduce and remove shine

Matte makeup is preferable within photographic makeup as it lasts longer and reduces glare, however pearlised finishes can catch the light beautifully mixing the contrasts of the two finishes can really enhance a makeup

Lighting

Corrective or body makeup may be required as lighting can show up everything, the makeup will be needed to balance out any high colour or blemishes

Photographic lighting wipes out natural highlights and shadows created by facial contour. Use highlighting and shading techniques to define the bone structure

Harsh lines are emphasised more on camera, products must be blended well to avoid showing up particularly the jawline and hairline

It is important to even out the skin on camera as any natural shadows caused by skinfolds or creases under the eyes are highlighted or shaded to sharpen or soften areas of the face

What is the purpose of a mood board?

Mood Boards

Range of images that become a visual guide

Reflect a theme or original idea

Develop a design

Establish a theme

Use descriptions

Attach adornment materials

Hair styling ideas

Your mood boards represent your work and you as an artist so make them stand out and creatively inspiring to look at

Fantasy / Editorial

• It refers to anything that is new and experimental

• There is no right or wrong, let your imagination run free, all passions are different as are experiences

• Think outside the box your ideas are individual

Black & White

When working with black and white photography you need to take into consideration the colours that the subject will be wearing

Some colours will not come up under lighting and you must be aware of this

The best match of foundation is to match to the models own skin tone

All other aspects of the makeup should be darker to show up in the final visual

Black & White

Bridal

Bridal Makeups can range from traditional to cultural or even themed

A trial should always be carried out beforehand

Make note of products used to refer to on the day (face chart)

Consider how the hair will be on the day as this may affect the makeup; as to how soft or strong it will be

Consider long lasting makeup that will stay on perfect all day

The main aim is to create a natural look to enhance the brides features

Don’t ever dramatically change a brides look unless they ask you to do so
