TEXT: Stage Make-up by Richard Corson and "Make-up
Kit" by Bob Kelly.
PURPOSE: The
purpose of this course is to acquaint the student with a basic technique in the
application of stage make-up in a laboratory situation. This shall be accomplished
by the execution of FIVE make-up projects throughout the term, a final project
and the collection of a make-up morgue.
PROCEDURE: You will be
required to bring your make-up kits and text to class at every class session.
(See GRADE SCALE) The class is taught in a studio fashion. At every class
session, the student will begin work on a particular aspect of the make-up
process. The instructor will monitor the progress of each student as he/she is
at work applying the make-up.

ATTENDANCE: In accordance with
college policy, any student accumulating TWO unexcused absences shall confer
with the Dean. Upon a third absence you will be given a WARNING, and after the
fourth absence you will be dropped from the class. The PARTICIPATION grade will
take into account in-class attendance and in-class cooperation. If, after the
scheduled “drop date,” the number of unexcused absences exceeds the allocated
amount, the students are reminded of the following:
4-6
unexcused absences…….loss of ONE letter grade.
7-9
“ “…….loss of
TWO letter grades.
10
and above…...loss of THREE letter grades.
NOTE:
The “loss of a letter grade” is calculated against a letter grade currently
earned.
COMMENTS: Please
keep in mind that a course of this type places particular emphasis on the
actual application of the make-up. This will require you to bring such items to
class as cleansing agents for your skin, towels, smocks, hair-ties, kleenex, brushes, etc. In
addition, the instructor reserves the right to discard any course materials
such as grade sheets and morgues that are not retrieved within ONE SEMESTER
after you have completed the course. In addition, the PARTICIPATION grade will
be generated on the basis of in-class attendance and overall willingness to
execute in-class exercises. Should the student choose to place either one's
attendance data or in-class attitude in jeopardy, the instructor reserves the
right to award the participation points accordingly.
