Color Theory for the Make-up Artist: Understanding Color and Light for Beauty and Special Effects analyzes and explains traditional color theory for fine artists and shows how to apply it directly toward make-up applications Make-up artists control color the same way a painter does. They choose color palettes, match colors, blend new colors, and create designs on a canvas that is always changing. Some colors cancel others, some balance each other, and some oppose other colors. However, painters seldom have to consider inconsistencies in how their art will be lit and where it will be displayed the way that a make-up artists does. This book teaches how to mix any color using just red, yellow, blue, and white. It discusses the reason for variations in skin colors and undertones, and how to identify and match these using make-up, while choosing flattering colors for the eyes, lips, and cheeks. Colors found inside the body are explained for special effects make-up, like why we bruise, bleed, or appear sick, and ideas and techniques are also described for painting prosthetics. The book also explains how lighting affects color on film, television, theater, and photography sets, and how to properly light a workspace for successful applications. Whether you are a professional or a beginner, you will never stop learning. There will always be new products, techniques, and fashions – this book provides guidance and inspiration to keep practicing, creating, and honing your skills.

The materials collected, developed, and compiled in this volume are mostly related to grant-proposal development for education, but the push for uniformity in grants among the various federal agencies means that the materials have wider application. Some of the ideas and tips may be of general interest and value to a grantwriter; some ideas about "project management" should benefit anyone operating a project. The book is divided into three major parts and several additional supporting sections: Part I discusses the planning and some of the major "tools of the trade" needed to get started in the grant/project field and to use the Internet to access funding resources. Part II covers some important steps in developing a successful grant application. Part III discusses both closing out a project annually and the often difficult but realistic element of terminating the project at the end of external support. This handbook includes problem definition, analysis of need, goals and objectives, activities, some management details (timelines, personnel, budget, reports) evaluation, and dissemination of results. The work is about exploring, writing, implementing, and terminating an idea as a strong proposal and as an operating project. Appendixes include list abbreviations, state points of contact, and a glossary. (Contains 51 references.) (DFR)
