Skin: prep, correction, tone
Barrier, correction and mixing to match rather than approximate.
Short courses
Six masterclasses
One subject, one or two days, taught to a maximum of twelve. Open to working artists and to graduates of any school, not only ours.
Graphic liner and cut crease
Structure, tape-free edges, and how the shape reads at three metres.
Camera-ready for HD and 4K
Texture under high resolution, continuity notes and set-lighting tests.
Period looks, 1920 to 1980
Six decades, the products that actually existed, and honest modern substitutes.
Airbrush for face and body
Compressor set-up, dilution, coverage on body work and clean-down.
Kit building and hygiene
Decanting, sanitising, records, and what an insurer expects to see.
How they run
Every class is practical from the first hour. Demonstration takes about a third of the day; the rest is you working, with the tutor correcting at the station. Models are booked by the school for all classes except the kit and hygiene day, which does not need one.
Booking
Dates are published a term ahead and each class runs once a month at most. Fees are payable in full at booking, and a place can be moved once to a later date with a fortnight's notice.
Certificates
Each class issues an attendance certificate naming the subject and the hours. It is not a qualification and we would rather you did not describe it as one; insurers, however, do accept them as evidence of continuing training, which is the main reason people ask for them.
