Television sets and the screens on which we view content have come a long way. How TV or a movie is shot now is extremely important to makeup artists because now makeup is even more important than ever! No mistakes can be visible because every little detail can be seen. And not just on a TV screen, but on a HUGE movie screen where a person's face is sometimes the only thing that fills up that space. Every pore on a face can be seen!
The type of TV or movie I am speaking to is shot in 4k or UHD (Ultra High Definition) which is 4x sharper than 1080p HD (High Definition) or 9 times sharper than a 720p HD. You may be familiar with these terms with your own TV set at home. The result is whatever is shot will be seen on a higher-definition display, whether it be a TV or movie screen. It's a great experience for the viewer, but, a much harder job for the makeup artist behind the scenes due to the fact that 4k also produces colors four times more realistic.
With almost two decades as a professional makeup artist working on film projects, tv shows, photo shoots and weddings, LA based Heather Coopersmith brings some serious skills and knowledge to the Glad Lash Blog with her guest posts. Heather sees her art (and her hair!) as a creative outlet, and says "My world is a visual experience and I want to make you a part of it!" We're super excited to have Heather brightening up our world. You can reach out to Heather on Instagram @makeupthebride
