My expectations...

My first thoughts on the brief-

-With only little experience doing character makeup, i know the difficulty and thought process that has to go into this project. Expanding my skills on creative thinking excites me, also digging deep into a characters role and emotions.

-Creating an image transferring Miss Havisham and Estellas emotions and feelings through styling and makeup animates me to research fully so i can transmit the character traits and personalities to the viewers.

-The idea of conveying my imagination and ideas through a blog, which at this very moment, I'm enjoying it much more than having to fill a sketch book. Blogging is much easier, as it can be done anywhere and at any time. Also i can write as much as i want, and not have to worry about running off the page.

-Being told that we will be practicing bruising and scarring in the studio thrills me, as i also really do enjoy the dark side of makeup. 

-Improving my confidence skills in both practical techniques, and also having to find models of a different age range, in other places than the university.(It scares me to ask a woman on the street if i could make her down, as if she is on her death bed, and see their reaction.) This should be a challenge!

-This unit will help me better my time management skills, as we have a lot of work in a short space of time, however this prepares me for the industry!
