Evaluation of Project

Overall, I did enjoy the Goodbye to Berlin project although I did find there was a lot of work and research involved.  I do understand that it is vital to do lots of research to support my ideas, and I did the best I could.  I also felt I rushed my contemporary character slightly, so next time I would start my research earlier.

My favourite part of the project was the contemporary character.  I loved the way we could link 1920’s with current fashion and make up with valid research behind both.  I also liked the idea of club culture and how artists are influenced by it today.  Watching Party Monsters was great too, as I wouldn’t of thought to watch that in my own time.  I like discussing films in class as it is good to see other peoples views on different scenes.

I feel I struggled with the creative side of the project.  This is something I struggle with on most projects as I like to think of my own unique ideas.  I don’t like to choose the same ideas from films I’ve seen or books I’ve read.  I find watching theatre productions and taking pictures of random things help me with ideas.  I find I am able to look into things deeper and pull certain things apart, such as colour theory.

I also enjoyed swapping designs with a partner because it was interesting to see their application techniques and how they interoperate your designs.  This is why it is extremely important to swap designs with your partner before the assessment as you need plenty of time to think about their design and how you are going to manage you time.  For example, when I was creating Bryony’s design, we both decided together that I need to set and prep her hair beforehand.  So we arranged to meet an hour before so I had extra time to be sure all of the hair was set in time to start the assessment.

I didn’t really like having to grade my partner on creating my design.  I didn’t want to be too harsh or too generous, but as Bryony created my design so well, I think I scored her fairly as there were only a few faults.

Next time, I feel I could manage my time management on my blog a little better.  I downloaded an app on my phone and ipad, so I am going to blog on the go or when I have gaps between seminars.   I think this will encourage me to do more blogging because if I see something that inspires me, I can capture it and put it on my blog there and then.

In general, I did like this project.  It was great how we had two elements to it so we could really show our individual creative sides.  I would like to do something like this project again but with different era’s because I like finding similarities that other people may not notice.

Hair chart

Equipment
Small Curlers
Bobby pins
Backcombing brush
Feathers

Method
1. Brush the hair thoroughly to get the knots out whilst you are waiting for the curlers to warm up.
2. Then section of the bottom of the hair and begin to curl, pinning in barrel curls as you go.
3. Then move onto the sides, section off in a triangle pattern to get the wave and repeat the process until the whole head is in barrel curls.
4. Once all of the curls are cool, remove the bobby pins and brush out so they go fluffy.
5. Then with bobby pins again, pin the hair up into a bob shape, and sleek one side behind the ear using hairspray.
6. Lastly, layer the feathers over the top of the bigger section of waves.

I decided to go for a 1920's hairstyle - side parting and curly bush formed into a bob.  I then stuck with the green theme from Sally Bowles and used my idea from Angel for the feathers. 

Practise make up

Here are my images of my practise makeup.  I decided to go over my natural lipline in these practise images, however I didn't like it so I am going to stick with the natural line in my final creation.

 

I decided to stick with a green theme stemmed from Elphaba from Wicked and Sally Bowles.  I chose Elphaba because I think she is similar to Sally where they both just want to be accepted for who they were.  I also stayed with the blocked out eyebrows and redrew higher arched ones in.  I went contemporary with the glitter and in fashion nude lip.

Facechart

Equipment
Mac foundation
Mac eternal sun blush
Green eyeshadow - screenface palette
Clinique Jupiter eyeshadow
Lipstick palette
Snazzaroo glitter
Pritt stick
Concealer palette
Translucent powder
Brushes
Mascara
Mascara wands

Method
1. Firstly, block out the eyebrows by smoothing pritt stick on the hairs.
2. Then, using the concealer palette, block the eyebrows out using the red.  Then dab the right matching concealer on top to totally block out the brows.
3. Then apply the foundation all over the face using the buffing foundation brush, making sure it is blended nicely.
4. Next, set the foundation and eyebrows with Illamasqua's translucent all over the face.
5. Then with the mac blusher, apply this to the cheeks to contour the face.
6. Next, it's onto the eyes, apply the green eyeshadow from the screenface palette over the lid.  Then use the Clinique green to make it darker and contour the eyelid.
7. Then using the eyebrow palette, neatly redraw the eyebrows higher than the original ones.
8. Then apply the peach colour to the lips neatly, making sure they're even.
9. Lastly its the glitter.  Using a sponge, apply the glitter to the outer half of the eyelid and all over the lips.

Key words

My two keywords I have chosen to describe Sally are; Determined and Amazing

Determined - I have chosen this key word because I feel Sally is determined to do a lot of things in life and throughout the film.  She always wants the best, whether it is men or performing for money, she has to be the top of everything.  There is a particular scene when she is so desperate to sleep with Herr Schultz, you can see it in her eyes.

 

Amazing - I have chosen the word amazing because I think Sally does the best in everything that she does.  She puts 100% into performing and she puts 100% into trying to win Herr Schultz round, even though she knows he is gay.

Making historical contemporary

I printed off 3 of my historical images that Bryony created on me and I collaged over the top to created possible contemporary designs.

 The first one I created above - I wanted to use either some thick ribbon or a pipe cleaner to outline the back of the curls.

 The second design above - I wanted to get a pretty barrette or hair clip to make the hairstyle a little more pretty.

My third design above - This was my favourite design, and one that I was probably going to go with or something similar.  I love the feather element which represents angel and some ribbon going through the curls.
