Ideas for glow make-up

For one of the main sections of the video we are planning on doing glow in the dark make-up. Here are some of the sort of styles of make-up we all discussed trying out, that I made on photoshop. Some things that we discussed around this topic were either more simple make-up - going off the less is more theory, or more extravagant as the artist is meant to not care and just want to have fun and so it would seem to suit that she would have over the top make-up on. We were all in agreement the make-up should focus around the artists eyes and lips so as to accentuate her beauty. We also thought it would be good to give it some sort of artistic flare even with the simple make-up so that it still looks interesting and shows off the singers style. We also discussed the idea of using glitter on the eye-brows and lips, however, there were disagreements as to whether this would look too much.  






The first photo is a representation of the slightly more simple make-up with just two colours. Focusing around the lips and eyes. It also shows the idea of having a bottom colour under the eyes as the more artistic, out of the ordinary make-up style. I think if we were to use glitter this would be the best make-up style to use it on.


The second photo shows the more extravagant make-up style with lots of different colours. It is meant to represent the characters more unusual, quirky style. Again the style focuses around the eyes and lips to help accentuate the artists feautres. I do not think glitter would be a good idea for this look as it would definitely look too over the top. For both looks we were thinking of having slight paint splatters around her face and body. This is to make the looks less precise and regimented, and keep up with the whole idea of the video of having fun.

The final look was something that I was thinking would be good for the backing dancers, if we went through with the dance number. I thought it was still important to focus around the eyes and lips, however, the colours are less bright and the design is less feminine, therefore not detracting from the main artist, but still visually interesting.  




These looks were somewhat inspired by the make-up as seen in the recent music video to Neon Lights by Demi Lovato, which accentuate the artists features and beauty in a similar way to what we envisage.
