Sweat, Tears and Fever


Sweat, Tears and Fever

Equipment -

-Supra-colour
-Powder
-Stipple Sponge
-Cheap Paint Brush
-Glycerin

Health and Safety-

Make sure if you're using Glycerin to create tears then you have to make sure you don't get it in the eye. You can use it under the eye and on the face but not anywhere in the eye.

When using eyedrops make sure to buy individual packets so you don't cross contaminate with anyone as eyes are extremely sensitive.

Tips -

You can use Glycerin for tears on the face, its important to make it look effective by not making the tear come from the outer edge of the eye. Tears come from the inner tear duct.
You can put eyedrops in the models eye to create a watery eye to go with the teardrop on the face.

A lot of the time on Tv and Film, the men don't have a base of foundation or anything because the camera picks up all the details and is just not necessary. Cover stop and blemishes as this would ruin the continuity because spots come and go, this is extremely important to remember.

To keep men looking matt in Tv and Film is to use a matt primer on the Tzone, this stops the lighting catching the oiliness or standing out on camera.

The Fever-

The places that shows fever the most is a little on the forehead, cheeks (where you put your blusher), a bit on the bottom of the cheek lightly and a little bit on the chin and neck.
Using supra-colour red and a stipple sponge I started to place the makeup on the cheeks and forehead, the key part of making this look realistic is to blend the harsh marks away. I used my finger to do this. Need to make sure the it look blotchy to create a more realistic look, anther thing I did to create a fever look was to put a slight bit of red on the ear as this happens when your feverish. No hard edges is really important when doing this.

Then we used the Glycerin to create sweat on the face, we used a stipple sponge to place it in the correct places of the face.  I placed it on the forehead, the top lip, the temples and the hair line.
