Make-Up in Films



I love the makeup in Black Swan, I like how it is sinister yet still graceful which is not the stereotypical ballet dancer look.

The red eyes also show that she is not a innocent ballet dancer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To create the character Mystique from x-men the actress had to sit for eight to nine hours to be made into her character. Involving nearly 100 individual prosthetics cover 60% of her body, plus blue bodypaint on rest and contact lenses. This is the first time a character has worn nothing but prosthetics for a movie role.

 

 

 

The make-up in burlesque is very classy yet bold. Its all about the eyes and lips to make the face stand out.

 

 

The hulk is mainly computer animated due to his build and and size. However the character still needs make-up, it is mainly green body paint and grease paint to create shadows.
