The author explains clearly and precisely the differing approaches to stage-lit such as: audience-attended television taping; studio-lit, no-audience taping; live television with natural outdoor lighting; live stage make-up; and the innumerable techniques and methods of film make-up. In addition to detailing the basic, day-to-day 'paint and powder' procedures that are the bulk of any professional make-up artist's work.

This book is everything the other review says and also has an indepth section on special FX makeup. It explains all the processes from taking face casts to casting the sculpted prosthetic in a veriety of industry used materials. Although this book is in black and white, it does have diagrams and photos to support the written information, and the aurther's style of writing is pritty interesting too. Well worth a perchace if you're a profesional, if your looking for ideas for personal makeup styles then this isn't the one for you.

This isn't the exact look in a book that I was looking at, though it was quite fine just not my style. Buy MAKING FACES by Kevyn Aucoin!
