This course will provide the opportunity to develop a broad range of relevant skills for the performance industry, with an aim to cultivate creativity and individual style with an awareness of culture, society and historical context. There is a focus on prosthetics as, due to advancement in products and technologies, success lies in being skilled in this rapidly advancing field of make-up, reflecting the demands of the industry as it is today and in a global market place. Students will have access to refurbished facilities including a fibre glass and resin extraction room, as well as state of the art products enabling them to be industry ready and familiar with current products, tools, materials and processes.

Valuable industry knowledge is gained throughout the course through an experienced teaching team with a wide range of industry backgrounds. Visits from guest speakers from TV, film and theatre will be provided throughout the course and this will enable students to gain worthwhile insight into the different areas of performance make-up. Work experience is strongly supported throughout the course with opportunities both internally through collaborative projects with the college’s media and photography programmes, as well as externally through partnerships with amateur theatre groups, local theatres and local film schools. Students will have opportunities to see and evaluate their work through their experience as well as through collaboration with professional and student photographers.

Teaching is supported by relevant guest speakers and engagement in work experience.

The Freelance Strategy module aims to develop the student’s independent approach and initiative when entering a career in industry. Fostering communication with industry professionals as well as production companies, will allow students to start developing their network. Developing and engaging in social media will allow students to share their work and develop their professional image.

The Industry Practice module is a work related learning module which allows students to work with an industry professional on a live brief. Alternatively students may choose to engage in work experience gained independently utilising their network developed during the Freelance Strategy Module.

The Professional Identity module is a work related module which allows students to develop their professional mission statement, artistic direction for their professional profile and image. This would include management of their professional portfolio, website, blog design, promotional materials and social media output.

The programme has strong links with The Manchester College through knowledge sharing partnerships. This course has been written by industry professionals who currently work with Habia International, the government appointed industry standards agency, and has the approval of a number of key industry specialists who come into contact with graduates from all over the country.

Through the connection with Habia International, the College is able to offer students’ opportunities to engage with Japanese make-up artistry students during their visits to Craven College, in addition to access to London based international educational events.
