Class DescriptionGoals & Objectives: An introductory course in stage make-up techniques & tools.
Semesters Taught: Every (F17-present) Future of Class: The class is evolving into a contemporary approach to Stage Makeup. Instead of teaching the outdated titles of projects such as the "corrective" stage face and "gender reversal" projects, the projects will focus on the concepts of beauty, monstrosity, & gender. The class maintains the objectives of the class while approaching the technical skills through a more inclusive lens. Ms Gross was named one of the Innovators in Residence (F20-S23) by C-Pad to further develop this class to a focus on beauty, monstrosity, & gender. A chapter in Teaching Performance Practices in Remote and Hybrid Spaces (Routledge 2022), features this work in Chapter 15. |
