ABSTRACT
Makeup accessorizes the character's look, mood, and style. We put the finishing touch on the actor's exterior to match the interior performance and to bring the character to life. This enables the actor to focus on the performance and not the look, and to become the character. Many times you will feel the actor start to transform before your eyes as the makeup application progresses. They are looking into the mirror and seeing the physical appearance matching the interior of their performance/character, and their body language begins to change. At this moment, both actor and artist know the makeup design (and application) is working. You know you have been successful in developing the character.
