Introduction to the brief

     During this new term we, the students from the Make-up and Hair Design course(1st year), were given a new project on which we are going to work. The unit is called " Gothic Horror". In this period of time we are going to develop an understanding of how to create an image of characters focusing on their make-up and hair for films and television.
     The brief is composed of several parts:
1. The first part of the brief is based on creating looks for 2 of the protagonists from the novel "Great Expectations" by C. Dickens, which are Miss Havisham and Estella(or Pip).
2. The second part of the brief is Continuityin which we will need to show our ability of recreating the same look of Miss Havisham. I can understand the importance of this skill especially for somene who wants or will create a career on film sets.
3. The other part of the brief is to create Pip's or Estella's look based on our notes and facecharts.
4. The last part of the brief, allows us to show our skills and creativity for creating 2 characters using references to Gothic Horror as the main inspiration. We are asked to create two characters, Claudia and Quentin  for a TV intro.
 At the end of these tasks we will need to make an informal prsentation of our progress, in which we'll show our development and improvement whithin this period of time.
