Journeyman Make-up Artistry Program

Film and television are the primary focus of the Journeyman Make-up Artistry Program as it prepares the student to work as an entry-level make-up artist for the entertainment industry.  In this program, you will begin your preparation for the film and television industry by taking courses in Beauty Make-up and Character Make-up Artistry.

Film and television depict characters in a variety of situations, covering all periods of history in differing environments. As a make-up artist you help the writer, director and actor to create the picture. The story being told or the medium may require that only basic corrective make-up be applied or it may require the use of prosthetics and other elements of special make-up effects.
In the Beauty Course, your foundation as a make-up artist will begin. You will learn the fundamentals of contouring, base matching, corrective make-up and the correct use of color in order to prepare your subject for camera. In the Character Course you will design and create characters that will showcase your knowledge of make-up. By incorporating varying techniques of special make-up effects you will create simulated injuries, age make-ups and learn to apply prosthetics, bald caps and facial hair.

The Beauty Course and the Character Course are the same as those offered individually and both courses include a professional photo session.

A Diploma is presented upon completion of this Program.
