Theatrical ageing is about emphasizing the lines we get as we get older. I used a greyish brown colour to draw the lines and asked my model to pull faces to show off natural lines for me to enhance for example forehead under eyes nose chin and mouth. After I had drawn on the lines I blended outwards and highlighted with the kryolan eyeshadow 'anis' but I did loose some of the lines so I had to re drawn them then tidied up with foundation. In TV and films they do not use white colour for face - mix it with a little bit of yellow. I put foundation over my models lips to make them look dry and to finish the look I used Kryolan Tooth enamel with a baby bud to apply to the teeth. I'm pleased with the outcome and enjoyed creating the look although I would like to expand on it and use latex to wrinkle the skin.
Evaluation
I personally love theatrical ageing I love how you can push the artistic boundaries I'm pleased with my outcome although next time I would like to expand further but as this is my first time creating a theatrical make-up look. In reflection I would have been more dramatic with the wrinkles and as I'm interested in working in theater as I feel its like using the human body as a canvas. Something to take into consideration is that you can't be discrete with the make-up and you have to be bold with it.
