Makeup helps actors see their characters come to life. Students will be learning to design and apply their own makeup in a variety of ways in order to embody different characters for different occasions. With these supplies, students will be able to work safely and hygienically whether they are in person on campus or in their own homes.
In learning the skills involved in makeup design and application, the high school students will learn how to translate characters from the written word into a living person. This synthesis of writing, visual art, and performance adds a layer not only to the performance at hand, but also to the students' empowerment to make artistic choices in their own work.
