Since my film focuses on teenagers, I will use the most natural makeup designs as possible. To understand more about the makeup designs that I could be using for my film, I'm going to use an article from Stringline motion pictures.
The article goes over why actors may need to have makeup on for the sensitive cameras or for their blemishes. It also goes over the "no makeup" look, which I need to learn about and take into consideration when I'm filming my short film. This look is to give off the professional face with no visible flaws, but it brings out the actor's natural features which can give them a more natural appearance.
To create this look, makeup artists often use matte powders, matte foundations, and a neutral palette to pull off this look. While men's makeup is different than a woman's in film, the effects are still the same. Makeup artists color correct their skin, groom their facial hair, powder bald spots, and use eye drops to make their eyes pop.
The article also goes over the best products to use for a film which are concealers, color correctors, foundations, and powders. For concealer, the "Valerie Beverly Hills Hocus Pocus Concealer" is good for concealing imperfections of the skin. For color correctors, the "Joe Blasco Neutralizer" can be used as a tattoo coverup due to the strong effect that it has. For foundation, the "Make Up For Ever HD Fluid Foundation" was made for HD screens because of the medium coverage and blurred look that it has on skin. Now, as for powder, the best one is "Ben Nye Bella Luxury Powder" which ties up the rest of the elements.
Overall, these tips and tricks helped with my understanding of the film and they will help me create the natural effect that I need to create.
