Three-Dimensional Makeup Education In Turkey
Özet
The work in which the appearance of an actor is fully or partially changed and disguised into a new one through the use of techniques such as moulding, modelling and casting as well as sticking three-dimensional parts obtained from filling materials such as latex, gelatine, silicone, etc. on the face or body in order to create characters in setups to be prepared in stage, film or television industry and other areas of visual design is called three-dimensional makeup. Rapid development of the sectors for which the area serves in parallel with the speed of technology has led to a shortage of experts specialized in this field, and for this reason, education programs that train three-dimensional makeup artists have drawn considerable attention throughout the world. There are some education programs going on in Turkey as well with respect to three-dimensional makeup techniques used in America and Europe since the early 1900s. Systems in Turkey are compared to the education systems in countries such as US, Canada, Hungary and UK in order to present information concerning the instructions of three-dimensional makeup methods and techniques whose technical details are not widely well-known in Turkey.
