my dream job

                                 introduction


 my dream job can be scary but very exciting why you ask? because the career aim interested in is that of a special effect make-up artist.i would love to pursed this career because i think its amazing how you can create something so beautiful like a mythical creature. or  something so horrifying like the exorcist or the girl of the ring,or create bloody chop of limbs. or a half burned faces, and a dead body with all its organ out now that's something else you name it they make it.i just love the fact that working in this field you get to experiment with colors,shades,value,shape,and texture. you get the chance to make a totally gorgeous person into the scariest thing you have ever seen or the pretest . i think this job would fit just right for me and it would be a dream for me to see one of my own creation go on johnny dept and the big screen now that would be amazing.


                                                         background
Jack pearsed is one out of many famous special effect makeup artist. But his one of my favorite because he was one of the first to create Frankenstein the monster that was created by a mad scientist and that actually came alive to terrorize the town.so creating this monster was so much harder because back then because their was no kind of  prosthetic, no silicon mask so what jack use to do in order to create the famous Frankenstein. he would do a build up of cotton and collodian on the actors forehead. collodion  is a liquid plastic material. Sins it was much harder to make Frankenstein forehead jack would sometime have to send the actor home with the full on mask. on he would do this so in the morning before shooting started they would just have to do some touch ups they did this because to get this look it would take up to 8 hours just to crate the face.

                                          Requirement 
Its not a scientific thing to becoming a special effect makeup artist the requirements for this job are to
To have at least some kind of practice like courses in a cosmetology school
Or just to know the basic application of theater make up
If you have or don't have some sored of training all you really need to have is the eye for colors. This means you need to know how to add shading,color,and texture in this industry many famous s.e.m.a like jack pearsed all began this career by taking low paying jobs as interns or assistants. Where they get to train with the biggest of the biggest make up artist.

                                  Job reflection

               
The one and only thing that would be challenging for me would be. That in this job you have to be calm and relax, and understanding.you may not know what kind of model you would be working on.  Those are the only thing that would be challenging for me  about this job. But athear  then that this job is the perfect one for me.
