Quentin and Claudia.

Since finally completing the make-up in motion brief I feel proud of what I have created and achieved, I have really enjoyed the brief and being able to practice the new special effects make-up skills I have learnt throughout Sues studio sessions. Initially I was worried and unsure of wether I would be able to develop and project my vision for my characters the way I planned but, I pushed myself to follow through with my ideas and work outside of my comfort zone. Kat's Make-up in motion seminars were incredibly helpful and gave me inspiration and support whenever I was unsure of my ideas. Presenting my ideas in front of Kat and my peers was something I found very beneficial when I reflect on the progress of my work, prior to our presentations I felt very nervous and intimidated towards the idea of presenting my characters and story but It went better than I expected. 

Something I feel I can improve on in the near future is communicating with Kat and my other lecturers more about my work and ideas, I feel I am a very anxious person and struggle to talk to people as much as I should, this is something I want to improve in myself next year. Since completing this brief I also feel that I have a better understanding of time management, continuity in TV and Film and the importance of planning and communication as a make-up artist. Both Sharon and Kat have helped me understand the importance of multitasking and having numerous skills in not only make-up artistry but creative thinking, planning and being able to contribute and work in different environments etc Digital Image production and mastering amateur photography skills. I look forward to carrying on my studies in make-up artistry at Southampton Solent next year and learning more new skills and experiencing new opportunities.
