BRAVE NEW WORLD: INTRODUCTION...

Make-up for special effects:


In this unit we are focusing on human transformation and what is considered beautiful through an experimental approach of the human body. No restrictions through design thinking- free thinking, look beyond casual beauty.  



We will also be looking at body architecture which includes-

Fashion
Architecture
Performance 
The body
Genetic manipulation 
Beauty expression 
Future human shapes 
Low tech prosthetics (ways for human enhancement)


The unit definitely has much more freedom than others and is consists of quite deep, unusual conversational topics which are very interesting. 



Look at; 

Orlan
Betsy Langlan 
Erwin Olaf
Levi Van Veluw
Next Nature.Net
Lucy Mcrae Bart Hess
Madame Peripetite

I don't personally have a lot of experience with special effects but I've always been intrigued  about how its applied and created on films or music video's I've seen. I'd say I'm not that confident when it comes to the application of make-up, on myself I can always produce something I'm happy with but being in a class with people who have some or a lot of experience is quite daunting. So I'm hoping to become much more confident when applying my look to a model and to also push out of my comfort zone when creating my final pieces as I believe I am able if I try!
