Week 2 - Beginning Schedule (will probably change)!

30th January


This is my schedule from my project proposal, I used this as a way of keeping to deadlines and knowing what I need to be completed. It is a great way of keeping track of my progress and not forgetting anything important that needs to be done! :)



Production Schedule
Deadline for the project is around May 2nd. Start date is 17th January, therefore there are 15 weeks in which to complete the book.
Week 1 – Plan and execute Make-up and hair designs for all 8 characters. Source models and photographers to work with.
Week 2 – Execute 2 photo shoots. Write introduction.
Week 3 – Execute 2 photo shoots. Begin compiling chapters.
Week 4 – Execute 2 photo shoots. Carry on with chapters.
Week 5 – Execute 2 photo shoots. Carry on with chapters.
Week 6 – Write introduction for the book, carry on with chapters, sourcing imagery.
Week 7 – Have all images returned by this week, ready to be used in the book.
Week 8 – Complete Chapters ready for printing.
Week 9 – Send for printing.
Week 13-14 – Book should be printed and returned.  

I think I may have to push some of the shoots back as I need to buy products, test shoot and complete designs, but I will make sure I keep up with the written work instead! There is so much to do, at least this gives me an idea on where to start!

Week 1 - THIS IS IT!

So, as a make-up fanatic, I think its time that I share my make-up interests with you guys!! 

I have been studying make-up for 5 Years now and I love it, more than ever! I started at college studying performing arts, which I was really into, but it was only until we had a business project that I was able to see other sides to the industry. Soon, I was hooked on Make-up design and enrolled myself on a 2 year course, covering all aspects.


We looked at many types of make-up, including: 

Period Work-1920's



Period Work 1940's



Fantasy & Bald Caps



Fantasy


Special Effects





I then went on to study Make-up and Hair Design at Southampton Solent University for 3 years and am now in my third year. Just about to properly begin my Final Major Project and Professional Portfolio Construction. 

This blog will document my inspiration, ideas and thought process to do with my FMP and I will show you all my final outcomes :) Please comment with any ideas and feedback that you have, as this will be a great help!

Thanks for looking!
