MAKE-UP CHARACTERIZATION in Barcelona and surrounding areas
Make-up Characterization
Since I entered the fantastic world of characterization makeup in Barcelona, what caught my attention the most was the characterization. Since you can get to transform a person into another person. Normally they are usually very elaborate makeup and for that reason I really like to do them. It is very satisfying that the time you invest has these results. Even though sometimes it takes a long time.
Doing characterizations has given me the opportunity to work with big companies and in big projects. Like short films and more. Besides that I have also had the opportunity to work in the Sitges Carnival, private parties, and with wonderful people who I have always ended up learning something more.
Characterization is a very wide world, we can make different make-up according to the needs of our clients.
We use the characterizations to make make up, for example:
Makeup Characterization Costume Carnival Costume
Carnivals: For these dates customers usually ask us characterizations of some theme or character, often are often more than one person such as couples or groups in which the other person complements them or for large groups such as the famous collas of Sitges that have been organizing them for years. We also advise according to what we are going to use the costumes, makeup and especially for how many hours we want to hold. Apart from adults we also do make-up for the little ones of the house, which are usually less elaborate but no less fun. Ideas for carnival:
- Black swan: A make-up on the eyes creating the mascara that the girl had on her eyes. And with long false eyelashes to give more intensity to the eye and create the effect we want to achieve.
- Mystique (xmen): In this make-up we will create volumes like in the movie and the whole face with blue.
- Doll: It is one of the classics but with makeup it changes much more, we create eyes as if they were doll's and not yours, with long and very thick eyelashes. Do you dare?
- Period makeup: How about very pale skin with a voluminous wig, pink cheekbones and those tiny lips? And feel as if we were in another era.
Professional Makeup Characterization Halloween
Halloween: The time of the year in which a few years ago became more famous in Spain. The characterizations that we are usually asked here is always a little more elaborate than normal as we are usually asked to make wounds, blood, transform them into a fictional character and adding the appropriate props such as contact lenses that we can put them without compromise, a wig or a hairstyle that characterizes them with the character, rotten teeth, etc..
- Maleficent: It was a boom in its time and still is. The horns are very easy to find even if you can do it by hand. A makeup with the features very marked as well as the eyebrows giving her that touch of evil.
- Edward Scissorhands: A Tim Burton classic. Creating the sad expression on the face, marked features, with wounds and very tousled hair. You can also make the hands with cardboard or buy them.
- Saw Doll: The costume is nothing complicated shirt, jacket, red bow tie and black pants. The skin would be all white with the spirals with red as well as the eyes, the eyes a black smoked and the lines of the mouth as if it were a doll.
- Joker: I also consider it one of the classics since the movie has been very famous and these makeups have been quite demanded depending on the occasion. It is a makeup as if it was erased by the heat. The black eyes asymmetrical and as if he was wasted, lips as if he was a clown but longer and thinner and if we have the opportunity green hair.
Makeup Characterization FX Barcelona
Fx special effects: Normally they are usually demanded more in short films, cinema… but lately we are being asked more and more for halloween. When we talk about zombie costumes or similar things is very funny because we can do thousands of makeup, put white lenses for example that always give the final touch terrifying. We can also emaciate the nails, hands, teeth and especially the face.
- Amputated finger: When we perform this we must be able to have the finger bent or on a surface to be able to support it and to see the effect of the finger. It will look like it is not complete with the bone and a lot of blood.
- Nailed pencil: Apart from the pencil we could also use plastic giving the sensation of crystals, etc. The truth is that it depends on the area where we put it, it is always very real, we must always try to put it in an area that is not very movable, because this way it will last longer.
- Zombie: Z ombie makeup is a very broad field with a lot of things to do. Such as using white contact lenses, wounds all over the body with scratches and very emaciated.
- Wounds: With the wounds we have more options to create and form what we want, because when we create them they adapt very well to the skin, they are comfortable and we can give the shape and size we need as well as when we give color we can work on the basis of what we want to achieve. Normally the wounds are made with latex because as we have said they are more comfortable for the person.
- Bullet wound: Bullet wounds can be made on the chest, forehead or arm. Giving volume and depth to the wound to make it much more believable. We can add blood as drops or splashes.
