How to Make Your Own Costume 1

This video and this brief series are just to start giving you ideas on how you can make your own costume for a party or even Halloween.  The young lady in the video throws out a few good ideas on how easy it is to constuct a simple costume for very little money.  I thought she explained it well when she suggested buying an outfit for dual purposes…one to wear at a normal function and then how to convert it to be used as a costume.  For more on masquerade and Halloween costumes, CLICK HERE

Do It Yourself Bald Wig

After the previous video, I found this video in which a lady did the same process by herself. This means you don’t necessarily need a professional makeup artist to do the job for you, and that might be important if you are just going to a Halloween party and don’t want to spend the $$$.

How to Apply a Bald Wig

Kojack? Yul Brynner? Both known for their bald pates, eh? Yet that lack of hair was natural. How do they make someone with a mane of hair become bald without shaving off the hair? Here is a great video of the step-by-step process as to how it is achieved.

This process is also the beginning step in creating a receding hair line and other odd hair styles. Make them bald first, then add the hair pieces to achieve the final look. For more on costumes and stage makeup, visit us HERE

Werewolf Makeup – How to (1)

Werewolf Makeup – How to

No, it isn’t Halloween yet, but since we’ve been on the ‘makeup’ topic, this might be a good place to plug this in. In this first group of videos (of 2 groups), we, or rather he, demonstrates what makeup and clothing might be needed to transform you to a ‘real’ Wolfman. The makeup, of course, is critical to the transformation, however oft times the accessories are equally important as well.

Is this makeup great? No, but with the addition of a product called crepe hair, and a bottle of spirit gum or liquid latex, this would be greatly enhanced. Maybe more on crepe hair at the end of this series, or maybe sometime in the future. I love the stuff, and most Halloween seasonal shops have no idea what it is; or if they do, they don’t know how to properly use it. It’s available through most all-year-round costume shops. And you’ll probably get a crash course in how to use it as well, if you ask nicely.

Old Age Makeup, Part 14

Old Age Makeup, Part 14

Hey, what happened to Part 13?  We’re not superstitious, but as we went along, Part 13 became the prequel to this course.  This is the end of the course, but we will add a few other variations to this over the next week or two or three. 

Hope you learned something from this that you might be able to put into other uses.  Perhaps when Halloween rolls around, rather than a costume, a good makeup job might be equally or more effective than the costume or mask.  Modify it a bit (mustache, beard, eyepatch) and you might become another character.  For more on stage costumes and makeup, as well as all the other costume possibilities, visit us on a regula basis at CLICK HERE

Old Age Makeup Course – Prequel

Old Age Makeup Course – Prequel

Here is a pre-quel to the Old Age Makeup for Theatre Course which starts tomorrow.

 This first video tends to roll into a second video which probably should be implanted a little later.  There actually is a second video here, unrelated to the addon in the first video.  Are you confused?  So am I.

For fun, try to remember what this young lady (not the makeup artist) looks like.  You may want to return to this video or Part 1 to see what she looked like at the outset of this makeup session.  My apologies if a few of these seem out of order, but that’s the way they were numbered…so be it.  For more on stage costumes and makeup, visit us at CLICK HERE for more information.  Hmm..that  last sentence was a little redundant, wasn’t it?
