Project Evaluation
Despite a few issues during the duration of the project with teaching this unit has
allowed my to develop my technical ability within makeup and hair to a high
standard. I have used primary research on collaborative shoots to develop
specific skills required to achieve highly polished final outcomes. Working to
produce makeup looks with other creative has pushed me out of my comfort
zone, allowing me to produce looks I would usually steer clear of. This shoots
also made no room for mistakes, so instead of just quickly practising looks before
my own shoots I have practised my makeup looks to achieve a professional
finish.
Having a variety of different artists in from industry has taught me priceless
skills in a very short space of time. With out them I would not have the technical
knowledge used in order to produce the looks I created.
Within my final imagery I feel I have used a variety of different skills to produce
looks that are very different from each other, but still work well together for my
brand portfolio. Developing a theme was key in order to produce the looks so
they would be consistent. I really enjoyed the brief as it gave us the opportunity
to work how we would in industry.
I have taken my makeup application from a very creative artistic style to a highly
polished beauty finish. Focusing on perfect application and learning how to
create different effects using a variety of products. I feel this was also
demonstrated within my timed assessment piece, although still creative, I feel I
achieved a look that still looks professional and polished. Knowing what effect
each product was going to create was key to creating this look within the time
we were given.
