Make-Up for Television/Film
International Conference "Theatre Between Tradition and Contemporaneity"
Theatre - Dance - Music - Visual & Multimedia Art - Arts Administration - Performing Arts Training - Stage Design & Technology
While with stage make-up, more isn’t even always enough; on TV, less can still sometimes be too much. Participants will experiment with how to use make-up to look natural, because one’s natural skin-tones are often quite unforgiving on TV. Similarly, we will experiment with how one’s everyday make-up often looks garish on TV and should be carefully toned down.
Organized by IUGTE in collaboration with "ArtUniverse" and New International Performing Arts Institute
Here we will experiment with the color triangle for ‘light,’ which is different from the color triangle for opaque materials. For example, all colors mixed together in paints results in a dark, muddy color, while all colors mixed together for TV result in clear light.
