PROJECT EVALUATION

There are many aspects of this project that I really enjoyed. It was interesting focusing on basic natural makeup skills such as bases and eye shapes, re capping what we should already know. This meant I was a lot more confident when it came to shooting the final looks as these had been practised many times. We had a lot of theory and practical lessons with both hair and make up which helped us to incorporate the different looks into our final images. I am happy with my final looks  but some more than others. I feel that the choice of model is very important and this reflected in my work as being let down meant I couldn’t achieve the final look I had hoped for particularly with the Smokey eye look. I experimented with studio and natural lighting as I wanted to see which looked more appropriate to the Revlon advertisements I had looked at and this meant a variation of images in the end. I would have liked to have been more experimental with the hair in some of my final looks as I learnt a lot of new hairstyles with this project. I developed my research by looking at the brand in depth and seeing which products were favourites in the industry. The MAC and illamasqua demonstrations were really useful as we were given lots of advice and tips for the future. My timed assessment went really well and I am very happy with the final images.
