Course: Media Make-Up Level 3

This courses are perfect for anyone who is interested in a career in TV and film make-up or wanting to progress in the industry and gain a higher accreditation and skill set.

You will cover many areas of make-up and character creation, including art techniques such as airbrushing, prosthetics, hair colouring and styling, bald caps, ageing, dry hairstyling, body paint techniques and much more. You will use vegan friendly products and support sustainability through the upcycling of costumes and wigs.

You will need to be creative, a great communicator, a team player, reliable and have an interest in current and historical fashions of hair and make-up.

It is important that you have a mature and professional attitude, as the hair and make-up profession is a highly demanding and disciplined one. In particular, you will be required to maintain high standards of professionalism.
