SPECIAL EFFECTS
Wigs up north is a company who specialise in wigs and makeup. The company was established in 2004 when two college friends noticed a gap in the thetrical wig making market in the north of the country. With premises and a website the business grew they also noticed a gap in the market for proffessional makeup suppliers in the north, so opened up this as part of the business.
“It would be fair to say that when we began Wigs Up North!, we never anticipated that the company would grow to what it is today. All of us consider customer care and professional standards to be core values of our company. By listening to our clients, the company has grown organically and gained our good reputation through word of mouth. It is something we are immensely proud of”.
I am hoping to build up on my special effects kit and wigs up north is where i will probably purchase some items from.

INTERVIEW/TIPS/TUTORIAL
You Tube is a great website full of videos on make up tutorials. It is great because most videos take you through the make up application step by step.
There is a wide range of videos on this site, using all different types of makeup, from special effects to classic smokey eyes.
I would recommend everyone to look at Bobbi Brown. Bobbi Brown is the founder of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, She has several makeup tutorial videos on You Tube.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_iAG4BFyKc

HALLOWEEN
One of my favourite times of the year is Halloween. Dressing up and face painting is something me and all my friends love to do.
Some of my friends get right in the spirit and have several Halloween costumes.
Unfortuanly I wasnt well this year so missed out on all the fun during the day at college and at night with my friends.
The college class had a fun day where they all dressed up. They had cakes and sweets for sale, raffles and a lot of the class did face painting and special effects make up for the other students.
This was all done to raise money for our college trip to the pantomime.

MAKEUP IN FILMS YOU LOVE
WHITE CHICKS
2 Black men work for the FBI and have to work under cover as 2 white females.
It took up to 7 hours a day to create this look. Plaster casts of there faces were made and layers of foam latex were used to soften there strong jaw lines. A water based acrylic paint was used along with revlon colour stay foundation to change the actors skin colour.
Makeup Artists Will Huff and Greg Cannom
SEX AND THE CITY
I love the movie sex and the city 2. The girls head to abu dhabi on holiday and the fashion, hair and makeup are fitting to the country they are in. I love it when carrie draws on the thick black eyeliner.
ZOMBIELAND
Zombieland is another film where the majority of the cast wear special effects makeup,
to portray the characters of zombies.
Lots and lots of fake blood was used.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND
Johnny Depp is unrecognisable with his curly orange hair, pasty skin and pink makeup as he plays the mad hatter in Tim Burtons adaption of alice in wonderland.
Tim Burtons wife, Helena Bonham Carter plays the role of the queen of hearts and in the film her head is digitally swelled to play the red queen.
THE GRINCH
The prosthetic makeup Jim Carry wore to become the grinch took three hours to apply each day. The prosthetics from the movie were on display at universal studios horror makeup show in orlando in september 2010, so people could see how much work went into making the character.
