Hannah and I as soon as we were paired together began to
discuss our ideas in order to get a good vision of what we both wanted to
achieve. We gave each other clear instructions on what products we used and how
best to apply them to attain our desired looks. Hannah and I communicated via
email and also practised each look on ourselves, then reported back the results
to see if they were satisfactory. Neither of us held back when asking for
advice or tips on how to achieve certain aspects of our designs, enabling us to
get the looks spot on.
As a designer I found it interesting to see how another make-up artist interprets my designs. Hannah had a clear eye and a focused approach. Upon arriving Hannah had turned up to the studio several minutes early in order to set up our work station. Being organised definitely helped the assessment to go smoothly and as planned. Hannah replicated my design really well. It was clear that she had stuck to my facechart and not interpreted it in her own way.
The one piece of advice I would give to Hannah is to manage the time given more effectively. Towards the end of the assessment I could sense the pressure Hannah felt as her hands began to shake slightly as the look was a little way off from being completed. Hannah dealt with this in a professional manner, didn't let the pressure affect her too much and got the job done within the time frame.
From this assessment I have learnt that I am able to work well under pressure and not let stress affect my final outcome. I really enjoyed creating Hannah's design and thought I learnt some key skills that I need to have under my belt as a make-up artist. I enjoyed the process of learning about someone else's designs and then being able to replicate it exactly. I know that this is a functional skill needed to be a successful make-up artist. What I would do differently if given the chance to do it again is to practise even more. After all, practise makes perfect!
