Never too late for a career change Shawn Janifer is a make-up artist and male groomer that got her start at MUD. As a groomer, she has had the pleasure of working with actors and entertainers such as CeeLo Green, Idris Elba, Denzel Washington, Cedric the Entertainer, Laurence Fishburne, and Gary Oldman - and with hip hop personas such as Kanye West, T.I. and Andre 3000.

O

ne of Janifer’s favorite clients to work with has been CeeLo Green, whom she describes as fearless. “CeeLo is an inspiration to many around the world that you do not have to be a cookie cut of what people expect you to be, but you can be who you are with all of your

society inflicted ‘flaws,’ and make people love you for them.”

Another favorite has been Idris Elba, who once saved her from making a bad marriage.

“During the production of Takers, I was considering going to Vegas and eloping with a guy I’d only known for a few months, and Idris insisted on meeting him. He invited my friend to the set and grilled him. Needless to say, we didn’t get married.”

Just goes to show that you never know how your experience working in the entertainment industry will pay off!

As a former student of MUD, Janifer says that one of the most valuable lessons she’s learned is that professionalism and personality go a long way. “Working with celebrities, you need to know when to be quiet, when to make them laugh, and when to leave the room without them telling you to.”

Before studying to become a make-up artist, Janifer worked at the Department of Justice as a budget technician for 13 years, showing that it is never too late for a career change. Her advice to current students and aspiring make-up artists? “Always practice your craft, network, follow up, and build great relationships.”

But also: “Once you’ve built those relationships, honor and respect them. Your clients must feel as though they can trust you. They want to know that they can let their hair down and say exactly how they feel while you guys are just chillin’ in a random green room and you’re not going to run and sell their story to TMZ.” Words to live by! Shawn Janifer has already had a fulfilling career, but her future looks even more promising. We wish her the best of luck!

“Special Make-up Effects” is one of the most creative, challenging, and technical forms of make-up artistry. The term itself was coined to classify make-up techniques that go beyond the traditional “paint and powder” methods used in the film and television industry. Specifically, this refers to the application of materials and / or “appliances” that change the shape of an actor’s face or body.

S

Special make-up effects have come a long way from the days of cotton, wax, latex, and spirit gum. Their modern construction and application have progressed to include the use of many exotic materials. Foam latex, Foam Gelatin, Pros-Aide Transfers, Silicone Gel Filled Appliances, and an array of adhesives have made their way into the arsenal of material used by the special make-up effects artist.

The history of make-up effects can be traced to the beginning of the motion picture industry. Creative actors – determined to push the envelope of their craft – used spirit gum, cotton, and mortician’s wax to create special character effects. Spirit gum and mortician’s wax were applied and sculpted directly on the actors face to create new features such as noses, eyebrows, and injuries. Techniques like this – although effective – were delicate, time consuming, and easily destroyed through perspiration and facial movement. Great care had to be taken to design make-ups that would allow for facial movement, as mortician’s wax would not retain its shape on high movement areas of the face. These out of the kit make-up effects were the beginning of today’s special make-up effects technology.

poured into specially prepared molds and baked in an oven at low temperature. After 3-4 hours, depending on the size of the appliances, the molds are carefully opened and the foam latex appliances are removed.

It has taken many years, but foam latex is slowly being replaced by translucent make-up materials such as foamed gelatin, silicone gel filled appliances, and Pros-Aide transfers.

Although foam latex will still have a place in the creation of large, bulky special make-up effects – many artists are opting to use translucent materials for character make-up effects.

Gelatin has been used as a special make-up effects material for many years. It was especially well suited for out of the kit burn make-ups, as well as many forms of construction make-up. Gelatin crystals – when mixed with hot water – create a stretchy, translucent gel that can be quickly sculpted directly on the skin. But one of the problems with this technique was that as the water in the gelatin evaporated, it would eventually shrink. In addition, if an effect using gelatin had to be duplicated more than once, it was very difficult to re-create exactly.

Not long after the movie industry began, pioneering make-up artists discovered a new material to create character appliances. It was soft, light, durable, and could stretch and move with the actor’s face. In addition, it allowed the artist to duplicate a character’s appliances as many times as needed. This ground breaking innovation is now commonly known as foam latex.

Years later, a gelatin formula was created by replacing the water with glycerin (a sweet tasting syrup) and Sorbitol (an artificial sweetener). This new formula allowed make-up effects artists to create soft, flexible translucent appliances that could be colored with liquid make-up or colored flocking in molds like foam latex. One of the advantages of gelatin appliances is the fact that they could be colored with a small amount of make-up or flocking, and retain the translucent quality of human skin.

Foam latex appliances have been the industry standard for decades, and have been used extensively for facial appliances – full, over-the-head character masks and full body creature suits. Foam latex is a combination of natural latex with a foaming agent, a curing agent, and a gelling agent. The components are carefully weighed and mixed at high speed, then refined to create a whipped-cream like substance. This foamed latex is then

But when large, full face appliances were first created and applied, a critical drawback was discovered. The heat from the actor’s body – in combination with their perspiration – attacked the gelatin appliances, causing them to melt and split on the actor’s face. Because of these limitations, special make-up effects artists were very cautious in the use of

Karl Zundel, Vice President of Make-Up Designory

gelatin as an appliance material. These problems were eventually overcome by the use of sealers to create a barrier between the actor’s skin and the appliances.

The search for translucent, durable appliance materials continued with the use of silicone.

A silicone formula was developed that combined a durable outer skin with a soft, flexible gel on the inside. This silicone gel-filled appliance material had all the translucent benefits of gelatin with the durability of foam latex. At first, these silicone formulas were carefully guarded secrets, but eventually silicone systems were available to any special make-up effects artist that wanted to experiment with them.

Paul Thompson and Karl Zundel made the first ever full silicone creature suits for TV movie called “Invasion”

Pros-Aide transfer appliances are another recent development. Special make-up effects artists discovered that the water based adhesive Pros-Aide – when frozen – created a sticky, translucent, stretchy material that retained its shape. To make Pros-Aide appliances, excess moisture is removed from the Pros-Aide, and colored flocking is added to create the desired translucent skin tone. The typical process of making the appliances requires that they be made in flat, open faced silicone molds; a special transfer paper is used to prepare them for use on an actor. Pros-Aide transfers are very effective for small character appliances and excellent for scars, cuts, and injury pieces.

With such a wide range of materials and techniques, it is essential that someone interested in make-up artistry and special make-up effects training choose a school that provides in-depth training in each of these areas. Special make-up effects are an essential component of any professional make-up artist’s studies for the film and television industries. Being a well rounded make-up artist with a strong emphasis in special

Special make-up effects industry continues to push the envelope of technology, but will always rely on skilled artists to create movie magic.

Paul Thompson, Director of Education for Make-Up Designory

make-up effects will make one a valuable member of any make-up team or production.

A make-up artist with the ability to apply all types of make-up – from beauty and corrective to character techniques and special make-up effects – will be qualified for the widest range of opportunities.

Hands on training has always been the best way to learn the skills needed for special make-up effects artistry. Make-Up Designory has thus divided special make-up effects into two categories: application and lab construction. The special make-up effects application course is known as Special Make-up Effects 201: Character Make-up Artistry. This course focuses on character development with an emphasis on prosthetic application. Students are supplied with a box of prosthetics, and learn the skills needed to apply foam latex, foam gelatin, Pros-Aide transfers, silicone gel filled appliances, and many other special make-up effects techniques. Students learn the different application and coloring procedures for each material, as well as which material is best suited to the budget, pre-production time, and shooting location of a given production.

The lab construction course is known as Special Make-up Effects 301: Lab Techniques. It focuses on the lab techniques and formulations required to produce different types of prosthetic appliances. The course takes students step by step from the life cast to design, sculpting, mold making, prosthetic construction, and application. Each student completes several projects to develop and perfect their lab skills. The final project for each student is a full head silicone gel-filled appliance make-up.

Today’s special make-up effects industry continues to push the envelope of technology, but will always rely on trained, skilled artists to create movie magic.

Artist favorite - Cream foundation Among the favorite MUD products is undoubtedly cream foundation.

The high pigmentation 55%, pigmentation of most cream foundations is between 20% and 30%, allows MUD cream foundation greater coverage and less use of a product. Due to the high concentration of pigment you can always dilute MUD cream foundation with MUD primer so you get liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer.

With the addition of silicone cream foundation is easier to apply, it doesn’t stay in wrinkles, is more persistent and you spend less powder in the dust for fixing. The texture is silky soft and final look is satin matte. I am also excited about the MUD AIR brush foundations that are color matching with cream foundations, so you can use two different applications on the same face of the product. You shouldn’t be worry about separation of each other.

Artist’s favorite: MUD HD AIR I was amazed. With HD AIR I found the easy way in controlling accuracy of the color gradation and light equability. It gives me the power of sculpting the face and changing its features with absolute tenderness. Working on two different music videos with Middle East celebs, both of quite different skin nature and age, has proven the quality and durance of HD AIR products. Even after 30 hours of filming, facing different types of harsh weather conditions and lighting, the foundation was never affected.

A Face Behind The Products Francine Reich What started as a simple passion for cosmetics and make-up artistry, blossomed beyond adoration for Francine Reich, Brand Manager for Make-Up Designory (MUD). Francine was exposed to the world of beauty at a young age. Growing up in the mecca of fashion and entertainment in Los Angeles, California, she was always surrounded by the professional make-up community. By the time she was 20, she received certificates from two makeup schools, in addition to a cosmetology license.

She began freelancing as a professional make-up artist on film sets and photo shoots, which gave her the opportunity to familiarize herself with various cosmetic lines.

Francine’s journey led her to Make-Up Designory where she joined the team in 1998 to launch the first MUD shop, a facility for students to purchase make-up kits and class materials. There, her interest grew in product development. She realized it was time to create something that was unique and would perform up-to-par with industry standards.

As a result, she instinctively began working alongside a team of chemists and experienced first-hand the ins and outs of make-up development. She learned what it takes to develop a premium brand and slowly created a full-range of high-quality make-up products that she felt MUD’s instructors could use while teaching.

As MUD grew, Francine’s role as a brand manager became clear. It was necessary to design and produce a professional line of cosmetics that were long-lasting, wearable, and radiant on and off the camera. Francine took the lead in MUD’s newest endeavor and began managing and designing the MUD line of products.

“Make-Up Designory had become a world leader in make-up education, and I knew that the company could also succeed in producing a world-class cosmetics line,” said Francine on what motivated her to start a product line. She started with the basic 12 Eye Colors and moved on to a full line of color cosmetics.

Francine became inspired to create user-friendly packaging as soon as MUD’s graduates began requesting products to sell to their own clients. Looking to keep the same quality cosmetics, Francine, and a team of designers, decided to incorporate the idea of education into the packaging, website and how-to videos.

The incentive was the public. She knew the public craved not just high-quality cosmetics, but the tricks and techniques applied by the professional make-up artists. She wanted the public to actually utilize a professional brand that was used on numerous celebrities. After all, MUD is built by education. Why not give the public a taste of what the professionals are doing?

Today, Francine works closely with MUD’s expert make-up artists to develop innovative new items. Whether she’s in the lab picking out the color of MUD’s next eye shadow, creating a unique new package for mascara or testing out the formula for ingredients, Francine continues to strive for excellence to meet both the standards of consumers and professional make-up artists.

I KNOW MAKE-UP.™

Ema Bavcon One of my deepest childhood memories brings me in front of a white blank wall in my room, where I left a huge circle trace of pink lipstick.

My parents have never really scolded me because of that pink circle, so I’ve always felt comfort and freedom with artistic expression. I’ve been dedicated to art for as long as I can remember. Painting, drawing, sculpting, designing, redesigning. Thanks to the Faculty of Education and their art program, I could train myself in a lot of different art fields. I think that was crucial for my chosen professional path because that really satisfied my curious nature.

It was pretty simple in my case. One day I woke up and I simply knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Make-up.

I invested all of my time and energy in that. It took a lot of sacrifices, but I am grateful for every situation and person on the way. Without them, I couldn’t be here. I couldn’t be what I am.

It’s been a year since my professional journey brought me to MUD Europe in Ljubljana, and since then I just haven’t been able to go away. I am in love with their concept, vision, product and, most importantly, the team. With them, even hard work becomes easy and fun.

Beside that, they enable me the time for my second passion.

Redesigning accessories made of materials found on flea markets, vintage shops, old closets/wardrobes, etc.

The message I want to give with my art is based on encouraging people to embrace their uniqueness and individuality, to seek beauty i n

little irregularities and highlight their attributes, to think differently and

t o

celebrate their personality through their appearance. I give them opportunity to start anew,

and

at a same time I am thanking them for carrying out the work, which I really enjoy.

Once an artist, always an artist!

Giodani photographer

Born in 1983, Peter Giodani is a member of the younger generation of Slovenian photographers. Personally not keen of labeling due to his degree in sociology, he would consider himself a photographer who walks a thin line between art and fashion.

His creative signature lies in the emotional note of his aesthetic, which has to be minimalistic and clean. He is driven by the search for poetic moments in movement, or, even more preferably, in stillness itself.

Recognized by the Slovenian professional community, he has collaborated with renowned artists and designers. As a member of Independent art and design society, SQUAT, he is in constant touch with progressive ideas, and part of a creative think-tank. Besides the search for a pure aesthetic in photography, he is interested in the critical potential of the media, which is most clearly visible in the work of his project titled Children of Europe.

A short documentary film, “Dream Out Loud,” directed by Deverill Weekes and Juliet Landau, Miss Juliet Productions, gave a touching insight into the story behind the artist.

Shortly after the documentary, guests were escorted in to get an up close and personal view of the finished product of his latest work, an Abraham Lincoln bust. Guests marveled at the works of the humble artist that could only express how much he loves what he does for a living.

MUD recently sat down with MUD graduate Meagan Hester, this season’s contestant on SYFY’s Face Off competition, to get a better look at how she has transitioned from being a student-in-training to working in the entertainment industry as a make-up artist. It’s plain to see that her colorful personality shines through as she uses her MUD experience in the world of make-up, taking her far beyond just lipsticks and eye shadows.

Meagan’s first thoughts when she heard the news that she would be a contestant on the show were of both disbelief and excitement. After two years of auditioning, the opportunity for her to appear on the show had finally arrived.

When asked about her most memorable lessons learned while a student at MUD, Meagan replied that her instructor
