HD Makeup
As more film, television shot/ broadcast
in HD , makeup artist must adjust their
technique and products for a screen
revolution quality that has as much as 10
times more picture details than analogue
Film/TV.
When i was learning makeup at The
Frampton Institute , we were taught that
makeup for TV was more forgiving than of
film. Heavier makeup could be used in
broadcast TV because of the overhead
lighting. Pan-stick makeup could be used
to hide a multitude of problems.
Now that even morning, daytime TV and
even education videos are saturated with
HD, you know it's arrived. Some say it's
the end of the extreme closeup, and that
stare will start putting anti-HD measures
in their contracts . They've got nothing to
worry about, we makeup artists are
stepping up their game utilizing new
techniques to literally airbrush away
imperfections
