Each year, students from around the world

come to Make-up Designory (MUD) schools

to train for a variety of make-up special-

ties. Students at MUD are immersed, from

their very first day, into the craft of make-up

artistry. Each of these courses are specifically

designed to help the student to fulfill their own

aspirations of working in film, television, the

fashion industry, advertising, retail cosmetics,

and a wide variety of specialties.

MUD creates the path for future artists by

giving each of you the opportunity to discover

and develop their own unique style under the

training and supervision of certified instructors

who have the professional expertise in all fields

of make-up artistry. The student's personal

vision will come alive as they infuse their

inherent talent with practical skills. Whether

it will be within the intricacies of prosthetics

or the delicacy of beauty make-up, MUD will

prepare the student to begin a unique journey

as a make-up artist.

MUD is a school designed by make-up artists

to train make-up artists. Founded in 1997, by

accomplished, professional artisans, Make-up

Designory began with a simple dream, and

has expanded into a recognized, rigorous

academic program that fosters creativity,

experimentation, and achievement.

MUD humbly began with a few courses in

beauty, character, and special make-up

effects, and has since expanded to offer four

comprehensive make-up programs, several

individual courses, and a collection of part-time

courses within the two main campuses in Los

Angeles and New York City. MUD has also

expanded globally, offering Studio Courses

internationally at MUD Studios, and at Partner

Schools across the U.S. Make-up Designory is

an outstanding example of how a clear vision

will help the student realize a dream career.

MUD's connection to the film, fashion, and

beauty industries is what gives MUD our

advantage. Professional Advisory Committee

(PAC) meetings are an important way to gain

insight on the latest techniques and trends that

are happening in these exciting fields. MUD's

PAC is comprised of experienced make-up

artists who represent all the faces of make-up

artistry, graduates who know the curriculum

inside and out, and fellow educators who have

committed their lives to student learning. The

PAC meetings lead to lively discussions about

curriculum, policies, and student services.

PAC commentary is taken to hear and has

led to many school changes; this construc-

tive criticism is what keeps MUD relevant in

the industry and is an important step towards

creating make-up artists who are prepared for

professional work, and successful careers.

Los Angeles is the man dressed as Darth Vader in

front of the Chinese Theatre. It’s some kid jumping

a six stair on a skateboard as a movie is filmed nearby.

It’s the Hollywood star in a ripped t-shirt.

Finding the local indie people in the french named

coffee shop. The ability to have authentic Thai food after

taking a Zumba class in Spanish. It’s road work ahead.

Seeing the city from Lookout Mountain. Driving to

the ocean. It’s car lights. It’s music. It’s film.

LosAngelesMUD Welcomes you to

The Los Angeles campus can be found

in downtown Burbank, California,

home of some of the biggest production

studios in the world, including Warner

Bro. Studios, Walt Disney Studios, The

Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, ABC

Studios, and dozens of other major

entertainment related companies.

LosAngelescampus life

New York is trying to catch a taxi in the middle of

Times Square. It is East Village, wishing you were as cool

as the musicians who hang out there. It is a long walk along

Battery Park. Seeing the Keith Haring on 128th and 2nd.

Knowing the subway like the back of your hand.

New York is cookie shots in Soho. It’s trying to walk as fast as

men in suits and getting a pizza in the Financial District.

It is a small restaurant around a corner that nobody

knows about. It’s bright lights. It’s a horizon of

windows. It’s fashion. It’s art.

New YorkMUD Welcomes you to

NewYork campus life

The New York campus is located amidst

the bustle of the world's most renowned

fashion designers, theatres, and network

studios. In Manhattan's fast-paced

and exciting Financial District, MUD

students are just steps away from Wall

Street, Stone Street eateries, and the

Battery Park waterfront area.

MUD Studio provides a perfect mix between classroom and

retail. Each MUD Studio is locally based and managed, and features a

modern showroom where the perfect MUD product can be found for every

occasion and customer type. With every product in MUD Studio comes the

knowledge of a MUD Make-up Artist. Beyond individual tutoring sessions,

the store also hosts a number of smaller workshops that are geared to the

needs of the everyday consumer and make-up enthusiast alike.

The education does not stop in the store. It travels to the classroom where aspiring

make-up artists are taught the fundamentals of make-up application and the theory

necessary to adapt make-up techniques to differing conditions. A MUD beauty make-

up artist can work anywhere from the retail floor, to a film set, to a bride's special day.

Courses are derived from the same curriculum that can be found at Make-up Designory’s

main campuses, but are divided in such a way to allow the student to progress through

the various subjects at their own pace. The courses are divided into three levels: Level

I is comprised of Beauty Essentials. The completion of this course allows the student

to work towards Level II make-up artistry. The Level II program includes

Airbrush Make-up, Studio Make-up, High Fashion Make-up Trends,

and Bridal Make-up. The final phase is Level III, which consists

of Essentials of Hair and Portfolio Development. One of the

unique features of the program is that students are able to not

only choose courses that they feel will benefit them, but

to take courses at different Studios in varying cities.

While the courses remain the same at each MUD

Studio, Partner School or Main Campus,

traveling to different MUD locations

allows the student to add culture

and life experiences to their

make-up education and

artistic expression.

What is MUD Studio?

Make-up Designory has courses and groups of courses to meet the

needs of licensed professionals. For this reason, all classes require

Beauty Essentials as a prerequisite. All classes are also offered as con-

tinuing education for beauty professionals. These courses have been

developed to build upon one another, so that students will benefit from

the combined materials and the progressive nature of the curriculum.

MUD has created groups of classes to illustrate possible combinations.

These groups are designed to provide comprehensive training in vari-

ous aspects of make-up artistry.

Please note that some classes may not be available at all locations.

A Certificate and Card are awarded for successful completion of any

course or group of courses.

Today's beauty professionals need to know more than hair and

skincare, they must be competent in all aspects of their craft. For

this reason, Make-up Designory has created a group of classes in

make-up artistry to help students of cosmetology and esthetics and

licensed professionals meet the full needs of their clientele. The

courses are held conveniently at MUD's main campuses, Partner

Schools, and internationally at MUD Studios.

MUD Studio courses are based on the same great educational

methodology and teacher training that has helped to make Make-up

Designory a bedrock in make-up education. The courses are pulled

from the same curriculum that comprises the longer programs at

MUD's main campuses in Los Angeles and New York, but are bro-

ken up into smaller modules. These modules can be taken separate-

ly or combined, allowing the student to transfer their education to

one of MUD's main campuses.

After completing Level I, the student may progress into more advanced areas of make-up. At this level, students will be exposed to areas of fashion, print, film, television, and bridal make-up applications. The completion of the Level II Make-up Artist Certification allows students to transfer to a main campus program, and may act as a substitute for Beauty 101: Fundamentals

of Beauty make-up.

This certification level consists of the following courses:

/ Beauty Essentials

/ Airbrush

/ Bridal Make-up

/ Studio Make-up

/ High Fashion Make-up Trends

All students completing this course will receive a Level I Make-

up Artist Certification. Beauty Essentials was written as an

introduction to beauty make-up. In this intensive 84-hour course,

students learn how to apply beauty make-up and the theory

behind it. These first 84-hours should be viewed as the bare

minimum to learn beauty make-up.

Once a student completes Level I and Level II they may continue

their education with an in-depth course on hairstyling and begin

the process of building their professional portfolio. The completion

Essentials of

HairIntroducing MUD's NEW Course

Make-up and hair go together like peanut butter and jelly, you really can’t have one without

the other. Our focus was on the student experience when we started Make-up Designory

eighteen years ago and is still very true to this day. We wanted to make sure the education

the student received was relevant to the industry, and that the student would have the

tools to be a successful make-up artist. One of those essential tools is hairstyling. In

today’s film and fashion industries, producers and photographers are looking for artists

that can create the complete look. To help our students be better make-up artists we are

introducing Essentials of Hair to provide that tool.

NEW!

This Studio course is modeled after our main campus

course Beauty 201: Studio Hairstyling for the Make-up

Artist, and consists of 70 instructional hours. The focus

is on classic techniques that show the students how

to create modern styles for advertising and editorial.

In addition, they will learn to use hot tools and roller

sets to create modern, natural styles, as well as edgy

and creative hair designs. We have incorporated daily

projects and skill-building sessions to encourage

learning by practice. As part of the course, the students

are required to complete hair and make-up projects

which relate to on-the-job experience.

We started the course with the proper care of tools and how to maintain

a clean work environment. As with all of our Studio courses, maintaining

a hygienic workspace is a priority that we continually stress. We cover the

basics of working with hair from combing out tangles, using a variety of

brushes, to the technique of properly blow drying hair. The students initially

work on mannequins, which allows them to slowly build their confidence as

they work towards human models.

Hairstyling is the sculpting of hair with classic techniques. We use hot rollers

in a variety of ways to show students how to build a hairstyle and teach how

to master the use of marcel irons. We do not just want the student to be able

to duplicate a look, we want them to understand how a look was created

and how to recreate it using techniques that will help that style to last under

the rigors of a demanding production schedule.

The students also learn how to manipulate hair, whether

it is braiding or how to skillfully use a comb and hair-

spray. Additionally, we challenge students to push the

edge of what they are comfortable doing. As the course

progresses the students are required to design looks

that combine make-up and hair into a cohesive design.

We assign projects that duplicate onset conditions for

time and quality that force students to manage their ap-

plication. Teaching them to deliver a look on time and at

the high standard set by our faculty.

There is no doubt that make-up and hair go hand

in hand. Whether it is for a special night out or the

demands of an editorial campaign, no make-up is

complete without a complementary hairstyle. It is for

this reason that MUD has included hairstyling to the

collection of MUD Studio Courses.

According to Paul Thompson, MUD’s Director of Education, “Essentials of

Hair is one of those courses that combines make-up and hair in real world

situations that teaches students how to problem solve and how to create

original looks”. Paul continues by pointing out that often after the graduate

have left the school they discover just how valuable hairstyling techniques

are. “I am continually amazed by the positive feedback I get from graduates

years after they have attended the class."

Smoky EyeDescription: This workshop focuses on classic techniques to create the smoky eye, however the techniques taught can apply to many styles of eyes. The process of layering eyeshadow and the proper use of light colors for highlights and a dark colors for shadows is the key to creating a beautiful look.

Teen Make-Up Description: Learn to apply make-up for you and your teen from professional make-up artists. This workshop teaches age-appropriate techniques to correct imperfections and cover blemishes. Participants learn to naturally enhance the beautiful features of a younger face with a minimum amount of product.

31

mature make-upDescription: This workshop addresses the challenge of applying make-up to sophisticated skin. The process is similar to other make-up applications, but requires far less product. Make-up sometimes accumulates in the creases of older skin. Powder must be used sparingly lest powdered surfaces appear dehydrated. In this workshop, we teach you subtle techniques to create a timeless look.

Evening LooksDescription: Looking forward to date night or, perhaps, a birthday dinner? Our Evening Looks workshop teaches you how to look your best for a night out on the town. Learn face analysis, make-up selection, and the techniques used by professional make-up artists to create a beautiful, youthful look for any evening engagement. Your instructor will help you pick tools and make-up that are suitable for any occasion.

32

Make-up partyDescription: Invite your friends to a party where you learn to do make-up while having a little fun. This workshop is the perfect introduction to the weekend. Channel your inner-rock star with a new look and be the center of attention.

Natural Day Looks Description: A natural make-up refers to applying make-up in a way that looks like we are not wearing make-up all over the face, however all blemishes and negative aspects are corrected. Typically, the eyes are light, the cheeks are sun-kissed, and the lips are a soft, subtle color. Natural looks can be worn everyday, and are good for most social occasions and special events.

In life it is not what money can bring us, but rather the mean-

ingful experiences people can bring to our lives. What if by

the building of a fence, you could give children in a village a

path out of malnourishment? By digging for a couple days,

you could give a neighborhood clean water. No money can

give you the satisfaction of working alongside people in

need. MUD Cares is an effort created by Make- up Designory

to contribute to the important things in life. We are interested

in our world and what we can do as a make-up company

to help. It is the possibility of change that pushes our work

in the MUD Cares program. MUD Cares began with a little

leftover lipstick that was donated to a women’s shelter. From

there, MUD cares has organized toy and clothes drives, cre-

ated make-up teams to provide free make-overs, donates

products to worthy organizations, and even built a house for

children orphaned by disease and poverty in Kenya. Today,

we continue to find worthwhile projects to become involved

with such as the Malaika Foundation in the Democratic Re-

public of the Congo.

What happens when a girl is not afforded the opportunity to

go to school? When a girl is left in the dark because her fam-

ily can only afford to send her brother? Why is it that women

are so often forgotten? Around the world, women are not

always given the same chances as men. In The Democratic

Republic of Congo, it is common for girls to be married at

a young age for a dowery while the boys in their family are

sent to school. A key problem in women’s education is the

risk associated with going to school. In the Congo, schools

typically lack adequate bathrooms and a girl student’s safety

is at risk. Added to this the problems of early pregnancy,

poverty and poor nutrition and a lack of access to medical

care make the challenge all the greater.

The Malaika Foundation was created by the Congolese born

model Noella Coursaris Masters to meet in one village the

problems faced by young girls and to educate young women

and to prepare the Congo’s next generation for success.

The Malaika Foundation, is named after Noella’s late father.

At the age of five, Noella tragically lost him and was sent to

Switzerland to be raised by other family members. She found

a successful modeling career when she left for the United

Kingdom at the age of 18 to study English. Her UK modeling

eventually led to New York and there using her career as

a platform Noella created The Malaika Foundation. She is

driven by the feeling that if her mother had a proper educa-

tion, she would have been able to raise Noella on her own.

Appropriately, the organizations first endeavor was to create

the Malaika school. By creating the school, Noella aims to

help young women to have the strength, confidence, and

education to be independent thinkers and to help the devel-

opment of their local area. The school is used to give girls

a voice. A proper education empowers young girls to feel

confident when speaking their minds. It contributes to their

overall success in life. Whether a girl chooses to be a moth-

er, business woman, both or neither, their education backs

them in decision making, taking a stand to fight injustice, and

to have a successful career.

Malaika is a school located in the Congolese province of

Katanga. At the school, girls with varying backgrounds

take advantage of a full curriculum with courses in English,

French, Art, and Science. beyond coursework, the girls are

involved in community service and even have the opportu-

nity to earn their badges as Girl Scouts.

The first step in any custom prosthetic make-up is taking a life cast of

the model or actor who will be wearing the look. This ensures that each

prosthetic fits the model exactly and that the final application will be as

realistic and believable as possible. After Garett Desmond volunteered

to be the Elephant Man, MUD instructors Chad Washam and Ray Shaf-

fer (Special Effects 201 and 301 classes) and MUD graduate Shelby Mi-

chael Patton took extensive life casts of his head, face and body. Using

Smooth-On Body Double Silk, a self-releasing platinum silicone, the team

life cast his entire head, face and shoulders, back and torso, and his right

hand and forearm. After the silicone had fully cured, plaster mother molds

were added to preserve the shape of the life casts and provide durability.

It really takes a group of artists to build a major prosthetic make-up. Make-up Designory’s Elephant Man demo make-up is no different; seven MUD instructors and graduates participated in creating and applying the various pieces to model Garett Desmond and bringing the likeness of Joseph Merrick to life at IMATS Los Angeles in January 2016. Here is a breakdown of the various stages in building the Elephant Man.

Step OneLife Casting and Making Positives

40

Chad Washam took lead in the sculpting of the various prosthetics for the Elephant Man,

with some assistance from Shelby in blocking out the sculptures. Nearly all of the sculpts

were done in water clay due to the short deadline and Chad completed the sculpting work

in roughly 20 hours total.

After the sculptures were finalized, they were laid up with water clay, released and prepped for molding. Chad and Shelby did the clay lay-ups and

molded the face and chin (ultracal mold), chest (fiberglass mold), right hand (ultracal mold) and the back (combo fiberglass/ultracal mold.) Kelly Mc-

Guinny assisted Chad in laying-up and molding the cowl (fiberglass mold).

Step TwoSculpting and Mold-Making

From there, hydrocal 30 was brushed into the life casts to recreate

rough positives of each of the areas that would require prosthetics.

The hydrocal positives were drafted out with water clay to remove

any undercuts and provide clean positives for sculpting and molding.

Shelby Michael Patton and Trina White were principally responsible

for drafting out these positives, then making Tempo 30 tin-cure sili-

cone brush-up molds, and finally tapping West System epoxy fiber-

glass into the molds to create lightweight, durable positives for the

project. In total, 3 positives were made in fiberglass, including a full

head positive, chest, and back. The right hand positive was made

with a combination of 1630 resin and ultracal 30, with removable

fingers to assist in demolding the appliance. Additional ultracal 30

snap molds were made of the face and back of the head to create

overlapping facial appliances.

After the foam latex prosthetics were successfully run, Chad and Shelby

prepared them for painting and application. Any seamlines created from

where two pieces of a mold met needed to be burned away with soldering

tools and then cabo-patched (patched over with prosaide thickened with

cabosil). To further disguise the burn line, a light layer of a latex and acrylic

paint mix was stippled on as well. The large tumor on the back of the head

was also seamed and patched, and then attached to the foam latex cowl

with Barge adhesive and foam latex blenders.

Once all of the prosthetics were seamed and patched, Chad went about

pre-painting the pieces. Pre-painting prosthetic pieces is a particularly

useful trick for any make-up artist; it not only makes the application on the

model go much faster, it also allows the artist more time to carefully think

about their painting process. Chad used a combination of custom-made

PAX paints (prosaide mixed with acrylic paint), acrylic washes, and alco-

hol and ink spattering techniques to pre-paint the Elephant Man pros-

thetics. After being painted, the pieces were heavily powdered to protect

them during transportation.

Step FourSeaming, Patching, Pre-Painting, and Hair Punching

After the molds were complete, Ray Shaffer took led in prepping the

molds for foam latex, with assistance from Chad and Shelby. Both the

fiberglass and ultracal molds were baked in MUD’s oven to remove wa-

ter moisture and any lingering gasses. Injection ports were added to the

cowl, face, and chin molds so the foam latex could be injected into molds

that were already bolted, strapped, and clamped tightly shut. The chest,

back and right hand were all poured full of foam latex while still open and

then clamped shut. Bleeders were added to all of the molds be release air

and prevent the formation of steam bubbles. An additional ultracal scrape

mold of blender pieces was also made and run.

In total, 2-3 copies of each prosthetic were made over the course of about

a week. Due to the large size and thickness of the prosthetics, approxi-

mately 3 gallons of GM Foam Latex was used to produce the pieces for

the Elephant Man. Ray, Chad, and Shelby ran three triple batches of foam

latex simultaneously to fully fill the molds and, thanks to Ray’s guidance

and expertise as a foam runner, every run was a success.

Meanwhile, Chad and Shelby also ran three copies of the large tumor

on the back of Joseph Merrick’s head in soft polyurethane foam with

a latex skin. The reason the tumor was run in polyfoam was to help re-

duce the overall weight of the cowl and make the piece comfortable for

the model to wear. Chad and Shelby also produced multiple copies of

the sculpting positive in rigid polyurethane foam to store and transport

the finished prosthetics.

Step Three Running Foam

After nearly 5 weeks of work, MUD’s version of the Elephant Man was

ready to be debuted and applied at the International Make-Up Artist

Trade Show (IMATS). The prosthetic pieces were transported to the Pas-

adena Convention Center early in the morning and the entire make-up

was applied to model Garett Desmond over the course of 5 hours at the

Make-up Designory booth within the convention hall. Chad Washam and

Shelby Michael Patton were the lead make-up artists and were assisted

by recent MUD graduates Trina White (who also assisted in building the

make-up) and Lexie Chacon-Rios. The foam pieces were glued on with

prosaide and the pieces were blended together and painted with a combi-

nation of custom PAX paint, acrylic washes, alcohol paint and ink spatter

(using Paasche H airbrushes), as well as European Body Art’s ENDURA

alcohol-based airbrush paint and a small amount of grease paint around

the eyes. After the application, the make-up was powdered to eliminate

any stickiness or shine and then sealed with Green Marble Sealer.

Make-up Designory’s Elephant Man make-up was expertly photographed

at the event by photographer Deverill Weekes. At the end of the day, the

make-up was removed by Ray Shaffer, Chad Washam, Trina White, Lexie

Chacon-Rios and Shelby Michael Patton.

All of the techniques and skills used to create the Elephant Man make-

up are taught within Make-up Designory’s Special Make-Up Effects 201

and 301 classes. Chad Washam and Ray Shaffer regularly instruct both

of these classes and teach much students the knowledge necessary to

build and apply custom special effects prosthetic make-ups. Shelby Mi-

chael Patton, Trina White, Lexie Chacon-Rios, and Kelly McGuinny are all

graduates of MUD’s Masters in Make-Up Artistry program.

Step FiveMaking Teeth

Step Six Application and Painting

The final touch for the cowl was adding realistic hair. Shelby hand-

punched a custom mix of blonde and brown human hair across all of

the Elephant Man head, including the large tumor on the back of the

head. Then, the hair was wet, styled and dried. Ray Shaffer provided

invaluable advice during this process and MUD’s Beauty 101 teacher

Lisa Leveridge even stepped in to give Joseph Merrick a quick haircut.

While the main make-up team was busy making the foam latex pros-

thetics, Make-up Designory’s School Director and Associate Director of

Education (and former instructor) Gil Romero stepped in and made a set

of upper and lower teeth for the character, using a dental cast taken of

Garett Desmond during the life casting day.

Proteus syndrome is a rare disorder marked by

the excessive and unusual growth of skin and

bone, as well as the development of tumors over

half of the body. The most famous documented

case of Proteus syndrome is that of Joseph Mer-

rick, an Englishman who spent most of his life as

a human curiosity and freak show attraction in

London during the late 19th century. He is more

widely known as ‘The Elephant Man.’ Several old

black-and-white photographs of Joseph Merrick

exist (and his preserved skeleton resides at the

Royal London Hospital) and the images depict

the extent of his deformities; nearly the entire

right side of Merrick’s body is enlarged and

twisted by thick skin, abnormal bone growths,

and tumors. Proteus syndrome is incurable and

relentless; Joseph Merrick died at the age of 27

of asphyxia caused by the weight of the tumors

and growths throughout his body.

While Joseph Merrick was quite the attraction

and object of study in London during the late

19th century, his story entered wider public

knowledge in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

In 1979, a play based on Merrick entitled The

Elephant Man debuted. Written by Bernard

Pomerance, the play won 3 Tony Awards (in-

cluding Best Play) and numerous other hon-

ors. In 1980, The Elephant Man was released

as a feature length film, directed by David

Lynch and starring John Hurt and Anthony

Hopkins. The Elephant Man was nominated

for 8 Academy Awards.

And this is where the story of Joseph Merrick,

the Elephant Man, meets the world of make-

up effects.

As make-up artists, we are charged with the

task of transforming actors into characters and

bringing life for the creative vision of the direc-

tor, writers, and producers. We must use our

skills, training, and tools to convince the audi-

ence that an actor is someone different than

who they actually are, without drawing atten-

tion to the fact that they are wearing make-up.

This transformation is sometimes as (seemingly)

simple as making a beautiful woman look like

an average waitress. But, in the world of special

make-up effects, this transformation often re-

quires the creation and application of extensive

prosthetics, hair pieces, and teeth.

When David Lynch initially began production

on The Elephant Man, he planned on building

and applying the make-up to actor John Hurt

himself. However, it quickly became apparent

that the project would require the assistance of

an experienced and knowledgeable profession-

al make-up artist. In the interview ‘Christopher

Tucker on Creating the Elephant Man,’ make-up

44

Chad Washam's recreation of The Elephant Man

Joseph Merrick

John Hurt in The Elephant Man, Make-Up by Christopher Tucker

artist Christopher Tucker describes how he first

heard about and was eventually brought into

the production, “Then a phone call came from

a production manager I knew and said ‘We’re

doing a production of The Elephant Man.’ And,

um, they wanted to know where they could get

some polyurethane foam. I said, ‘Well, what’s it

for?’ He said, ‘We want to make the prosthetics’

or something. I said, ‘Well that doesn’t sound

right to me, that’s not going to work. Um, who’s

doing the make-up?’… About a week later, they

rang up in a panic and said they hadn’t got a

film and they hadn’t got an Elephant Man and

they needed to start shooting on Monday. It

was a mega panic.”

Christopher Tucker was invited to view the pre-

served skeleton and remains of Joseph Merrick

at the Royal London Hospital. However, he sug-

gested that if he had the remains with him at his

studio, it would be extremely helpful in recreat-

ing Merrick’s likeness. Almost unbelievably, the

curator compiled and the remains were trans-

ported to him. Among these relics was a plaster

cast that had been taken of Merrick, which gave

Tucker a good reference for the size and di-

mensions of his head. According to Tucker, bits

of Merrick’s hair were still embedded into the

plaster cast, so they also had a good reference

for what color his hair was. Tucker based his

sculptures and make-up off of those remains,

as well as old, grainy photographs of Merrick

that were taken when he was alive.

Despite the fact that the make-up was an ex-

tremely rushed job (approximately 8 weeks in

total), Christopher Tucker and his team man-

aged to sculpt, build, produce, and apply

enough pieces to allow the production to com-

plete filming. The longest day they worked was

49 hours straight to meet the incredible dead-

line. The final make-up was comprised of some

15 pieces and sections that all had to overlap.

The Elephant Man was nominated for 8 Acad-

emy Awards. But it was not nominated for, nor

did it win, the Academy Award for Best Make-

up. This is because in 1980, that category did

not exist. However, a year later in 1981, the

category for Best Make-up was officially intro-

duced and was won by Rick Baker for An Amer-

ican Werewolf in London. There is little debate

the Christopher Tucker’s phenomenal work on

The Elephant Man was crucial in the decision

to finally add an Academy Award category for

best make-up and recognize the achievements

of the talented artists within our industry.

Due to both the unique appearance of Joseph

Merrick himself and the significance of Christo-

pher Tucker’s make-up, the Elephant Man is a

work of particular importance within the world

of make-up effects and is often referenced as

an inspirational achievement, alongside other

major works by Rick Baker, Dick Smith, Michael

Westmore, and Michele Burke. Christopher

Tucker built a beautiful, impressive make-up

that completely transformed John Hurt and

played a crucial role in bringing David Lynch’s

vision of Joseph Merrick to life, all within an un-

imaginably tight deadline. It is, without a doubt,

a make-up that any young, aspiring special ef-

fects artist should be familiar with.

Among the many artists who were inspired by

Tucker’s Elephant Man is Make-up Designo-

ry Los Angeles instructor and resident sculp-

tor Chad Washam. He has been a fan of the

make-up since seeing the film in the early 1980s

and considers it one of his ‘bucket list make-ups.’

Washam describes the Elephant Man, “It’s really

a make-up that appeals very strongly to other

make-up artists. It’s a massive transformation

with very large pieces, but the application and

painting needs to be incredibly realistic and

believable to be successful.” Taking Christopher

Tucker’s work as inspiration, Make-up Designo-

ry decided that the International Make-Up

Artist Trade Show in Los Angeles would be the

perfect platform to pay tribute to this incredible

make-up. And, at IMATS Los Angeles in January

2016, Chad Washam got to cross the Elephant

Man off his bucket list.

Of course, the make-up had to be built first.

And, much like the production of The Elephant

Man back in 1980, it needed to be done within

tight time and budgetary constraints and the

make-up team used the same grainy photo-

graphs of Joseph Merrick and small images of

Christopher Tucker’s version for reference. The

majority of MUD’s Elephant Man make-up was

built over the course of 5 weeks at the Make-up

Designory campus in Burbank, CA. A volunteer

team of MUD instructors and graduates dedi-

cated their free time to completing the long list

of steps necessary to recreate and reimagine

this classic make-up, with a bulk of the work

being done over the winter holiday break in late

December, 2015. The complete make-up build

is explained in the previous article, ‘Building the

Elephant Man,’ and the artists who worked on

the project include Chad Washam, Ray Shaf-

fer, Gil Romero, Shelby Michael Patton, Trina

White, Lexie Chacon-Rios and Kelly McGuinny.

Much like Tucker, Chad Washam also had to

find a way to manage the large deformities cov-

ering Joseph Merrick’s body. While it might be

easy to look at the make-up and assume the

skin and bone growths and tumors have been

exaggerated, that really isn’t the case. Merrick’s

deformities were so large and severe that he was

ultimately crushed under the weight of them. It

is extraordinarily difficult to so thoroughly cover

an actor in such large prosthetics pieces with-

out inhibiting their ability to move, speak, and

perform. Tucker described his own difficulty

with the make-up and how he ultimately made

strategic changes to his design and sculpts to

create the final make-up. According to Tuck-

er, “The art of make-up is to alter somebody’s

appearance without it being seen, what you’ve

actually achieved. The idea is to help the actor

portray the part in whatever way you can.” Ul-

timately, Chad Washam also took some artistic

liberties with his make-up design, the sculpt of

the back and hand were altered from the source

material and the specific size and dimensions of

the head and face tumors were modified to best

fit the model’s face.

In total, MUD’s Elephant Man tribute make-up

was a total of 9 large prosthetic pieces, con-

sisting of a foam latex cowl, cheek, nose, chin,

chest, back, and hand prosthetics, an attached

tumor of soft latex-covered polyurethane foam,

and custom upper and lower teeth, in addition

to multiple individually sculpted foam latex

blender pieces scattered across the model’s

body. Ultimately, the entire upper body and

head of the model, Garett Desmond, was cov-

ered in prosthetics, adhesive, and paint during a

5 hour-long application at the busy MUD booth

at IMATS LA on Saturday, January 17th 2016.

Desmond had never modeled such an exten-

sive and large make-up, and described the

experience of being transformed into the Ele-

phant Man, “It was really interesting…most of

the people who saw me were really surprised

and uncomfortable with how I looked. It was like

they didn’t want to look at me, but they were

also fascinated and didn’t want to look away…

It [wearing the make-up] really made me sym-

pathetic to how the real Elephant Man must

have felt…like you were a real person on the in-

side but no one could see it beneath what was

on the outside.” The final make-up was expertly

photographed by Deverill Weekes at the event.

When asked his thoughts on how the Ele-

phant Man make-up turned out, Chad Wash-

am said, “Well, I think it turned out pretty

good. But this was our first time applying the

make-up and there are a lot of things that I

think we can improve upon. I’d like to apply it

again so we can make it even better.” While

the real Joseph Merrick suffered from Proteus

syndrome, it appears Chad Washam suffers

from the congenital disorder that plagues

most make-up artists – the relentless desire

to improve your work and skill, and to always

do a better job the next time.

False Eyelashes

We all crave long luxurious lashes that represent youthful and well de-

fined eyes. False eyelashes are the secret weapon used by make-up

artists and consumers to make natural lashes look bold and beautiful.

We have so many options that we can really create many different looks

by utilizing one style of lashes for a full, natural look or by combining

styles to create even thicker lashes. Eyelashes are available in synthetic

or natural hair and come in a wide range of lengths and thicknesses.

There are more styles now than ever before and we can even get lash-

es made in different colors and materials. False eyelashes have had a

number of names over the years and we typically refer to them as strips,

individuals or flares. A strip lash is a set of curved hairs attached to a

single strip of material that is glued above an individual’s natural lashes.

Individual lashes, sometimes called singles, are usually a single strand

of hair that can be glued on above the natural lashes to fill in thin spots

or can be used in conjunction with a strip lash for an even fuller look.

Flares are used in the same way as the individual lashes, however they

are made up of four to eight strands of hair. They, too, can be combined

with individuals or strip lashes for customized looks.

Why we love them

46

In preparation of applying false eyelashes

apply eyeshadow and eyeliner to the eye

as desired. Curl the natural lashes with an

eyelash curler by applying pressure at the

base of the lashes. Release the pressure and

move a short distance away from the base

and reapply pressure. Repeat this technique

until you reach the end of the lashes.

Strip eyelashes are made for each eye,

one is for the left and the other is for

the right. You should not reverse them

unless you are trying to create an avant-

garde look. The thinner, shorter hairs go

next to the tear duct. Determine how

much, if any, of the outside edge of the

lash should be trimmed. If the eyelash is

too wide for your model's eye, prior to

applying glue, trim the lashes from the

outside corner. Fit the trimmed lashes

one more time before you apply glue to

see if they fit properly.

Apply the glue with an orangewood stick to the inside

edge of the strip. The adhesive is a contact adhesive

and will work either wet or dry. To apply wet, wait about

15 seconds before applying the lash. Waiting will allow

the glue to stiffen up slightly and keep the lash from

roaming around on the eyelid.

Depending on which eye you are working on will depend on where you will have the

model look. For the left eye have your model look downward and to the right. This will

allow you to access to her lid without a lot of eye flutter and it will stretch out the lid

perfectly for the application. Holding the lashes with your fingertips in the center of the

strip and with your other hand left carefully at the eyebrow. The area just above the natural

lashes will look like a small ledge. Tack the strip along this ledge, starting at the tear duct

and work your way to the outer corner. Keep the lash as close as possible to the roots of

the model's natural lashes without gluing it to the actual lashes.

Once the strip has dried

completely you can apply

more eyeliner or eye color on

the top of the lash line and

actual strip to help the false

lashes blend into the eyelid.

Use the orangewood stick to gently press

the strip onto that thin ledge above the

natural lashes. At this point, make sure the

false eyelashes are laying very close, or up

against, the natural lashes. There should

not be any space between the natural

lashes and the false lashes. Have your

model continue to look downward until the

adhesive is completely dry.

To properly connect the model's natural lashes with the false

eyelashes, have the model look straight ahead and place the

orangewood stick on the upper side of lashes as support. Then,

with the #500 Brush, apply mascara by gently brushing up from

the underside of the lashes. This will connect the lashes together

and ensure that the lashes look good from any angle.

Short flare lashes are perfect for a natural

lift to the outer corners of the eyes. Flares

can also be added to sparse areas to create

fuller, thicker lashes.

Individual lashes are designed for

filling in areas of the lash line that

are sparse or thin. The use of single

lashes allows you to customize how

full you want the lashes to appear.

Medium flare lashes are used to create fullness

and length to the natural lash line. Adding flares

to the outer corners of the eyes gives a "cat eye"

effect and adds a touch of drama to the eyes.

Natural looking lash strips give the eyes

subtle enhancement for everyday use or any

special occasions.

Perfect for adding drama to any natural look,

these lashes add length and fullness and can be

used to create bolder eyelashes. Combine with a

thick layer of mascara to really stand out.

Achieve a very dramatic look with these strip

lashes. The shape of the eyelashes will make any

eye look more open and rounded due to the shorter

length of the hair at both corners, and longer length

of hair in the middle.

These lashes are slightly angled towards the outer

corners for creating seductive eyes.

Make your eyes stand out in the crowd using these

thick dramatic strip lashes.

This unique style has dense short lashes and two

distinct long lashes towards the outer corners to add

a whimsical look to the eyes.

These long thick eyelashes are all about drama. They

are rich and voluminous for those who really want to

make a statement.

MUD StudioA place where creativity, art, beauty and knowledge are reborn

MUD Studio GentPhotography: Jorn Urbain

74

When architecture and design meet MUD and its Studio con-

cept, an extraordinary place is born. A place where creativity,

art, beauty and knowledge is to be seen - is it a classroom or

shop, place that will overwhelm you with MUD philosophy.

75

the City of MusicVienna,

76

Vienna’s beauty, history and its vibrant love of

life were only part of the reason to open a MUD

Studio here. Opened in November 2015, the

Studio is located directly opposite the famous

Viennese state Opera House, which is also re-

flected in the Studio’s interior design.

The MUD Studio can educate up to 16 students

at once in a private atmosphere. The fact that

the classroom is on another level than the shop

makes it special and private, the store customers

are not disturbed by students and vice versa. We

are proud that we can offer such a perfect envi-

ronment for such a profound education.

Our students will get to know make-up in a

pleasant environment with perfect features. The

Studio is working in cooperation with Vienna

Fashion Week, the famous Opera Ball, as well

as the worldwide known Life-Ball, all of which

will give our students the opportunity to show-

case what they have learned at MUD.

Vienna, the City of Music, is known for being

the home of legendary composers, such as

Franz Schubert, Johann Strauss I, and Johann

Strauss II, along with the world's first psycho

analyst, Sigmund Freud. Other greats, such as

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Bee-

thoven, and Johannes Brahms spent a great

deal of their careers living in this magical city.

Vienna has the world’s best quality of living

according to the Mercer 2015 Quality of Living

rankings, and has some of the world’s most

beautiful architecture - which has been desig-

nated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The City

offers something for everybody: it has posh

clubs as well as grungy underground bars.

There are five star restaurants next to vegan

organic snack bars. There is the very beautiful

old part of town, the historic Opera House in the

heart of the city, the castle of Schönbrunn; yet

with so much history to see, Vienna also has a

very modern and young art scene. Museums

like the Mumok (museum of modern art) or the

MQ (Museumsquartier) offer so many creatives

a place for art, ideas and interaction.

We can proudly say that we have chosen the

right spot in Austria to open a MUD Studio. We

are joyfully looking into a bright future for the

MUD Studio Vienna.

Creativity and innovation are rarely the result of one indi-

vidual, but rather the product of a dedicated and talented

team. When Make-up Designory began in 1997 with three

employees and a small studio, it was quickly realized that

in order to be successful and truly create a new concept in

cosmetics and make-up education, the team would have to

focus and grow with more and more talented individuals.

Over the years the MUD family began to grow, but a few

years ago, MUD took a dramatic step in scope and cre-

ativity and expanded its creative team to Europe. MUD's

European team is comprised of a special group of talented

individuals that have been tasked with creating the visual

appearance of the brand. While the US team works on new

products, techniques and education systems, MUD Europe

works to tell the MUD story.

That story is told by the European team's beautiful design

work, unique seasonal campaigns, product photography,

and innovative space design. Each year the team produces

MUD Art. A magazine that tells the MUD story and encom-

passes what is best about the brand, the company's team

members and, ultimately, its students and customers.

The creative process does not stop in print for MUD's Eu-

ropean Team. They, along with the great work of Barbara

Debevec from Plusminus30, have worked to re-imagine

the physicality of MUD's classrooms and retail space. The

result of which has been the creation of MUD Studio; a

modern, highly customizable retail space, which creates a

relaxed and sophisticated environment to learn about MUD

Cosmetics and a modern classroom that optimizes the

learning experience.

JEFF DIDN’T CALL... IT’S HOPELESS...BUT I-I STILL HAVE MY NEW WATER-RESISTANT MASCARA...

In 1968, the film "Planet of the Apes" was not only an iconic

film, but it also triggered Hugo Villasenor’s first inspiration and

appreciation for special make-up effects in the movies.

After having a career in the dental field for close to 12 years,

he decided it was time for a change. He collected all of his

savings and decided to go to back to school to study what

had first sparked his interest, which was to be an artist. He

went on all the tours of the LA-based schools, during this time

he had also stumbled upon Make-up Artist Magazine. It was

the one with Stan Winston on the cover; within it there was

an article that outlined the steps you would take in picking a

school called, “How to Choose a Make-up School.” Through

this process, a particular school named Make-Up Designory,

aka MUD, caught his attention.

At the age of 35, Hugo decided to take the plunge and dive

into the Master Make-up Artistry program at MUD, learning all

he could within his time there. Once he completed his school-

ing, he earned a short internship for Lenny McDonald at Edge

FX. He worked on everything from being in the shop to the ex-

perience of life on-set. Soon after that he had the opportunity

to work at Creature FX, which was based on a recommenda-

tion from Lenny. His experience in shop work pulled him into

working at the shop on films such as, "The Lion, the Witch &

the Wardrobe".

Slowly building his resume' of work; Hugo landed a job at

Proteus FX. On his first Day of working there, to his surprise,

he was introduced to Steve Prouty; the FX artist that was fea-

tured in a Cameo article, in that first Make-Up Artist magazine

that Hugo had come across. He had the opportunity to work

alongside Barney Burman and Steve Prouty for a few years.

He ended up working on "Alias", "Tenacious D", "the Pick of

Destiny", and many other projects.

Hugo was also involved in the next feature the shop worked

on, "Mission Impossible 3". Hugo remembers that during the

start of pre-production of this feature at Paramount Studios,

Barney was unable to make it due to illness. Hugo was sent as

Graduate Spotlight

the spokesperson on his behalf. He had to do a presentation

for the director, J.J. Abrams, and the producers. He went over

all prosthetics that were to be used on Tom Cruise and Kerry

Russell for their injured looks in the film.

With the industry slowing down, Hugo decided to open his

own small studio M3FX. He then started taking smaller proj-

ects on his own. Why M3FX? Hugo, being a family man, was

inspired to name his studio after his 3 daughters.

Alterian Inc. was the next chapter in Hugo's career as an FX

artist. He had the pleasure of working alongside many great

artists, including Tony Gardener, the owner of the shop. Hugo

worked on various sets doing make-up applications, on proj-

ects such as, "Gentlemen Broncos", "30 Minutes or Less",

and Eli Roth's film, "Clown". Hugo was the department head

for make-up FX for "Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apoca-

lypse", which was his first department head credit, for a movie

of that size. It was a real honor for him to have Tony Gardener

trust him with such a big project.

Following that, he landed a random dream job, turning Mel

Gibson into a werewolf for a Halloween party. It came from a

recommendation by Steve Prouty. As a surprise to him, Hugo

got a follow-up call from Mel the next year to transform him

into a zombie.

Hugo used to read the Fangoria Magazines and aspired to

have one of his own make-ups posted within the pages. In

2015, an indie film, "Starry Eyes", got him his first nomination

for a Fangoria Chainsaw Award. In 2016, he landed his sec-

ond nomination for yet another Fangoria Chainsaw Award on

what he considered to be his first crowning achievement as a

Department Head through his own studio, M3FX.

"Bone Tomahawk", a western with cannibals starring Kurt

Russell, is a playground for an FX artist to be creative and

bring his own ideas to the big screen. Hiring his own team,

Hugo was able to bring on some great artists who each

brought their own unique skills to help in the creation of the

film. He brought on set his right hand, Analyn Cruz, also a

MUD graduate, who assisted with all the design looks for the

beauty make-ups and worked on all aspects of hair and wigs

for the show. He was able to call on people from all over, in-

cluding Tanner White, his backbone at the shop, & Steve Cos-

tanza was his on- set go-to artist.

Hugo looks excitingly to further his career, and continually

builds himself as an artist. He is constantly learning on every

job along the way. Hugo’s words of wisdom for any aspiring

artist are, “Never turn an opportunity down, you never know

what’s in store for you around the corner.”

of experience under her belt, Denika's extensive knowledge of make-

up has allowed her to master the art of enhancing natural beauty.

First make-up project: It was probably in high school when all

my friends asked me to do their make-up for the formals, but my

real first Industry project was CRAZY TOWN music video MANY

years ago, lol.

Film/Project that you worked on that changed your life: I think

every project changes and affects my life or career in some way.

I’d say the greatest change I had at the beginning of my career was

leaving MAC to work with the PussyCat Dolls.

Most recent project: Currently, I’m working on loads of things, which

include PROJECT RUNWAY JR. with Kelly Osbourne and a new online

magazine launch in New York.

Mike Mekash was born in Seattle, Washington. He is a three-time

Emmy award winning make-up artist, who has been working in the

Industry for over 15 years. His amazing work can be seen in the iconic

AMERICAN HORROR STORY. Some of his other credits include THE

NORMAL HEART and GLEE.

First Film/Project: I was on set first for a movie called TORQUE,

applying tattoos to Jamie Presley and Ice Cube.

Film/Project that you worked on that changed your life: Besides

the obvious being ALPHA DOG, where I met my beautiful wife Eryn, I

would have to say it was THE STONING OF SORIA M, which allowed

me to travel to the Petra in the Middle East country of Jordan. It was

a real eye opener, not only to see places I'd only seen in pictures, but

also to experience how people live there. The subject matter of the

film was such that it could bring a change in thinking globally. What we

do in this Industry can have a profound effect on people. That made

me proud of what we do.

Most recent project: GUARDIANS OF HE GALAXY 2, which is

basically a dream come true for me. I'm a big science fiction fan!!

A new year, a new store in Belgium and a new collab!

It’s not a coincidence that MUD Belgium bundles it’s

strengths with fashion label Superfox: both brands have the

same work ethic to perfection. The result? A range of shirts

and sweaters with catchy make-up minded quotes.

The name Superfox comes from the English word ‘foxy’. A

well thought name for a clothing label that wants to pres-

ent something new. The target audience? Young women

who stay true to themselves and don’t really care of what

other people think. Ladies who are independent, contem-

porary and maybe even a bit stubborn. Girls who are inter-

ested in fashion and that can appreciate the importance of

a beautiful make-up.

Fashion and make-up: the perfect matchWhen MUD’s Belgium founders Gianni van Dort

and Nathalie Baert met Superfox - founders Lau-

rence Morel and John Noseda everything clicked

right away. "Laurence and John are people who

want to do everything perfect. Just like us. They

won’t cooperate with just anyone. The story has

to be right for both sides. And it was immediately

the case. Both brands match very well together."

Black, white, colored or vice versaThe new clothing line consists of good

and honest quality white and black T-shirts

and sweaters with catchy quotes from the make-

up world. All garments are made from cotton. Curious?

The collection comes from the 1st of February. The col-

lection is made in limited quantities, so get yours now!

There will also be a eye color palette launched at the

same time. Keep your heads up!

Ordering is possible at all MUD Belgium stores and it’s

online webstore.

For contemporary girlsAnd let that be just the target audience of MUD, the un-

disputed number one in make-up education. A unique

number one because MUD makes a striking combina-

tion of the retail of their products and the education-

al part of their school. Every sale goes together with

a well-founded step-by-step from the MUD make-up

artist on how to use the product on it’s best. This com-

bination of product knowledge is essential.

The official make-up sponser for

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Ljubljana

What began in 1996 with the Mercedes

Australian Fashion Week, is now an in-

ternationally recognized chain of fashion

weeks in wonderful cities like Miami, Berlin,

Sydney, Istanbul, and, yes, Ljubljana. The

new Ljubljana show was in- October 2015.

MUD was fortunate to provide the hair and

make-up department which included a

team of creative make-up artists from MUD

Studio Ljubljana, make-up artists from

MUD Studio Belgium and MUD graduates.

Premiering to high expectations, MBFW

utilized beautiful models to highlight the

work of fashion designers to a prestigious

group of fashion editors and others from

the fashion community. Using the beauty of

Ljubljana, more than a dozen domestic and

international fashion designers presented

their Spring & Summer 2016 Collections.

The first challenges started two months

prior to the event. The starting conversa-

tion included the determination of dates

and times for each show, the number of

designers, the number of models, and

consequently the number of make-up art-

ists. The designers sent reference photos

of desired make-ups, with a description

of their collections, to emphasize the

looks they would demand. Some had

clearly defined corporate designs, while

others provided starting points, allowing

our team to design the looks.

The most intense time is the last two weeks

before the event, where our time was con-

sumed with practice and rehearsals. Looks

were created, models and artists were

readied for the number of clothing and

make-up changes. And, make-up artists

and hairstylists practiced over and over,

because when the show started, there was

no time to think about anything else. Before

leaving for the runway, as the models lined

up backstage, the atmosphere at the mo-

ment was very inspirational. All of the work

was done with one goal, to make a great

impression on the audience.

Events like Fashion Week are a great chal-

lenge for everyone, the models, the design-

ers, the dressers, the make-up artists and the hair-

stylists. But, throughout the work, you have the

opportunity to meet many new people within the

fashion industry. Hard work, and an outstanding

result, is the way professionals network.

On behalf of the entire MUD team, we are very

grateful for the opportunity to demonstrate our

skills, and we're pleased to know that we are be-

ing invited to the next show, in the Spring of this

year. We already know it will be even better, and

very different, from the last one.

Make-up Designory (MUD) opened it's first MUD Studio in

Iceland on October 5th, 2015. This Studio is located in the

brand new town center of Gardabaer, in the Reykjavik area,

only a 15-20 minute bus ride from Reykjavik Center, and a

25-30 minute ride from the fabulous Blue Lagoon.

The owner of the Studio, Kristin Stefansdottir, and school

director, Anna Maria Gudmundsdottir, happily welcomed

guests to the Grand Opening event to enjoy the catering and

to learn about what MUD stands for. It is their vision that with

MUD they are bringing make-up education to a whole new

level in Iceland.

Classes are taught by international MUD instructors. The first

instructor to arrive in Iceland was Mr. Hrvoje Kozul - an expe-

rienced artist and instructor from Croatia. Level I and Level II

Courses have already begun and Level III Courses will begin

in March, 2016. Graduates from the first class have already

worked on make-up projects for large events, including the

Opera in Harpa, Reykjavik. Day and evening classes are of-

fered year round.

Iceland is both a cool and a hot place to visit - virtually and

physically. Under the ground boils hot lava that heats up

pools and houses. Downtown Reykjavik, boils with nightlife,

music, and exotic foods.

The glacial lagoon is a great place to visit, with floating

icebergs that come from Vatnajőkull, the largest glacier

in Europe.

Iceland is only populated with 350,000 people, most of them

live in Reykjavik and adjacent towns, like Gardabaer - where

the MUD Studio Reykjavik is located. The country is now

very popular year round with tourists who want to explore

Iceland's vast beauty and wild nature. If you go to downtown

Reykjavik, you are more likely to meet people from your own

country than Icelanders.

Late last year Make-up Designory, through its MUD Stu-

dio in Berlin, partnered with the German franchise of the

international show “The Voice”, to help with their make-up

and hair needs.

Fortunately for two recent graduates of MUD Studio Ber-

lin the “Voice of Germany” entered its final two weeks of

production and was in need of a make-up and hair team.

Adding to their background as hairstylists, Alla and Leon

had just completed both Level I and II, and were the perfect

choice for the assignment.

Kicking off their new careers, for two weeks the duo trav-

eled with the show on tour providing hair and make-up to

the eight finalists. Long days, great music and enthusiastic

fans made this a truly unique and special experience for

Alla and Leon. As the photos here show, we were fortu-

nate to get a glimpse into their on tour life. Peeking behind

the scenes to see all that is involved in a large production.

Huge TV screens not only showed the contestants and

the great work of Leon and Alla, but also allowed MUD to

spread its name.

A special congratulations goes out to Alla and Leon, and

a “thank you” to the Voice for allowing MUD to be part of

such a special event.

MUD on tour with

How was it being on tour, what where your days like?We spent the nights on the tour bus. That is 15 people in a

very small space, with the beds, TV, Playstation, food and

drinks. We shared our bus with the performers and two

cooks. You can imagine this was stressful, but a lot of fun!

Each morning we were greeted backstage by a freshly pre-

pared breakfast.

After breakfast, we set-up stations for hair and make-up, and

cleaned our gear. In the early afternoon all of the talent start-

ed to drop in. The time was always very limited, and often

had to be affected for sound checks and vocal coaching. But

we always managed to send everyone back onto the stage

in marvelous style.

During the show, we were always backstage, having to

constantly refresh the make-up and hair. Sometimes there

were tears by the performers, that meant a make-up had

to be completely re-done - and in a max of 5 minutes. It

was never boring. Hairstyles were also changed repeat-

edly. We even helped with dressing, because sometimes

there was only one song in between a performance to get

the singer completely restyled and back on stage.

After the show, everything was packed up, and off we went

to the next town. Back on the bus, we spent our nights

talking, laughing, watching movies, and getting a glimpse

what the saying "living on the road" might be all about. We

spent a few free days in nice hotels, and everyone enjoyed

some well deserved free time.

What has particularly impressed you?That 50 people, who permanently live together, can have so

much fun, while maintaining a strong work ethic for weeks

on end. It was great to see how much passion everyone put

in their jobs.

The endurance of the Foundations, and the overall quality

of the Make-up Designory Cosmetic Products, were out-

standing! We already had intensive experience "in normal"

situations…but the use of "our" products on stage, with the

uncertain factors, such as lights, heat, perspiration, and

movement, was beyond our expectations. We could focus

on our techniques, and let our creativity fly, because we

did not need to worry about the quality of the products we

depended upon.

Was it how you imagined it to be backstage, as a make-up artist?Leon: "Yes! And even better! There was very little time, a lot

of hustle and bustle, and very high demands. But, you have

to really go for it - to enjoy it. I would like to go on the next

tour immediately. That was one of the craziest things I've

ever done in my life! "

Alla: "As a child, I often dreamed that I may eventually ex-

perience this kind of backstage life. I was curious to find out

what it feels like to be part of a " tight-knit tour family". It was

very exciting for me to find out that I am strong enough for

it. Every day was something special for me, and I was very

happy that I was able to experience it all."

What challenges did you encounter?The biggest challenge was the lack of time during the show.

The artists were sweaty after each song, make-up and lip-

stick had to be replaced, and the hair had to be rearranged.

But, we both always stayed very calm, and we did not let

ourselves be infected by the pressure of the show. That

helped a lot, and was recognized by the performers, and

they credited us for our efforts.

In which situations did you think back to your time in class?First of all: thank you to our teacher, Azra! We heard your

voice in our heads, and it helped us to push through every

situation where we were unsure.

There's a difference whether make-up is for the stage or the

everyday life, and the different approach was well taught to

us in our specialty courses, such as Studio Make-up or High

Fashion Make-up. This meant, for instance: Don't be shy to

use colors, or to put in greater contrasts, and to use a much

greater emphasis than used in natural day looks.

Is there something that was particularly difficult - unlike in the course? Or easier or better?Alla: "Actually, only the first day - when we didn't know what

we had to do, or how long we had to do it, or even how such

a show works at all. I think that was the hardest part."

Leon: "It was great to have the sole responsibility for such a

job. That made us proud. No time to be scared - we need-

ed a plan and to work clean, fast and methodically. So, 45

minutes, like we had in the Final Exam, for a whole Face -

sounds like a LOT of time to me now!

How will your experience change the way you work, now that you have come to know Backstage Live stage and life?We now have a lot of practice in one of the core teachings

of MUD - to work quickly and clean at the same time. We

did not expect so challenging and responsible a job so early

in our carrier. This has shown us that you can aim high and

never lose sight of your goals. Continue to learn, be open to

new challenges, and, always love what you are doing.

And to put it in a practical list:Prepare a plan!

Work tight, clean and fast.

Stay calm!

Help your team mates.

After the Medieval period, where the human face was captured with very little

movement or expression, came the Renaissance era, where women's beauty

was looked at with a completely different perspective. For this look, pale

ivory skin was used with a touch of glow above the cheeks. Eyebrows were

intentionally left natural, no mascara was used and lips softly defined. Modern,

clean styling. The sophisticated hair line placed in the center brings the natural

beauty of the model to another level. Is she happy or sad, was Da Vinci's Mona

Lisa smiling? That is the beauty of personal interpretation.

Being inspired by an artist or art period is not about duplication, it is about expressing one's own unique interpretation of their work.

The Art of Arts

Renaissance 14th - 16th centuries

Highlight & Shadow Palette

Eye Colors: Bone, Taupe

Cheek Color: Rose Petal

Lip Pencil: Natural

The Baroque era was focused on religious matters, formality and dramatic expression. This period provoked

the birth of the highly decorative art movement, Rococo. Towered powdered hair, lace, floral dresses and

pastel colors blurred the lines between photography and canvas. The rouged cheeks, pouty flesh lips,

powdery face, and unblended brush strokes in this look represent a metaphor between hedonism and a

fairy tale, much of what was captured in the European upper class pictures at that time.

Baroque/Rococo 17th - 18th centuries

Cheek Color: Pumpkin

Color Creme: Tulip

Loose Powder: Zero

The inspiration for this look was inspired by Tamara de Lempicka, the first female artist and a glamour star,

"the baroness with a brush". Her work is hugely influenced by Cubism, yet stylized with the proficiency of Art

Deco. Strong contouring using highlights and shadows, drawn with wide strokes, yet still connecting them

with softly blended lines was a challenge in designing this look. Today, exaggerated reconstruction of the eyes

is often used in fashion make-up, so there is no doubt why she was considered the most fashionable portrait

painter and admired among Hollywood stars and haute bourgeoisie.

Eye Colors: Pavement, Onyx, Semisweet, Bone

Lip Pencil: Mauve

Lipstick: Mai Tai

The use of Fauve, primary red and blue colors, in this look are indicative of Andy Warhol's experi-

ment with the technique of silkscreen printing, a technique which was used for mass production.

Prints, such as the original inspiration for this look, had hard defined edges where the shadow

was strongest, hence the use of black for accentuating the eye creases, corners of the lips and its

wrinkles. This is why this look appears to be more two dimensional. Popular culture and celebri-

ties, such as Marilyn Monroe, were often present in his work.

If you can't afford a visit to the Moon, Iceland is a

very reasonable second choice. The nature of Iceland

is spectacular with Nordic lights, hot springs, water-

falls, volcanoes, glaciers and exceptional contrasts in

landscape and environment. Weather is unpredictable

a few minutes. The first Scandinavian MUD Studio is

located in a brand new shopping square, just one short

bus ride from the lively Reykjavik Center and only a

30 minute drive from the Blue Lagoon. Supermarkets,

restaurants and cafes are within walking distance from

school. There are many Airbnb options only one bus

line away from the school.

The more you visit Egypt the more you’ll sense hospi-

tality and generosity. Don’t be surprised if everybody

you meet or pass by offer you tea and food for free.

Beaches are simply stunning, with crystal clear waters,

warm sand, and amazing views. The Great Pyramids of

Giza are some of the most famous manmade objects in

the world. MUD Studio is located in Mohandeseen, the

fashion center of this vibrant city which also serves as

the nation's capital.
