MAKE-UP RESEARCH. . . .

22nd March

As stated in my FMP proposal and recently discussed with Emma and my mentor Flavia, I am going to create an art photography book focusing simply on hair and make-up but based around the 7 deadly sins. For ideas and inspiration I have created Pinterest boards for both hair and make-up but to visually show my ideas I decided to create mood boards for each sin as by this way, it will be easier for both myself and my tutors to refer back to when discussing my final shoots. For each board I decided to include nails, hair and make-up to keep it simple and not have to chop and change from different screens when discussing my visions.

I originally envisioned the sin ‘Gluttony’ as a mixture of light colours, pastel shades but the known colour is orange. I created this mood board to represent different colures used on the face and throughout the hair as I think for my beauty look I will create a simple orange themed look and the progress this into more of a vibrant, colourful look for my avant garde shoot. By doing this, this will represent the sin as it usually is with the orange but it will show my twist adaptation progressing into the avant garde design instead of simply sticking to what as previously been done.
