Makeup and wardrobe, whether you realize it or not, are important elements in your film. If an actor were to wear the wrong outfit, it could cause glare and your film will not look as good. Makeup can help make an actor not look washed-out in the film. If you’re not sure what to do, then ask someone else for help or put someone else in charge of it.
I learned a little powder goes a long way. Wardrobe and makeup may not make or break your film to most eyes, but it can help it look more professional and better organized. I was also unaware that some costume color can cause glare. With wardrobe, the camera really does add ten pounds, which I always thought was a myth or something people used as an excuse.
How I plan to use this information in my video projects is by coordinating outfits better. I probably won’t do that for every actor in every film because i’m not the best at figuring out who should wear what when. However, I will try to use it when I think of it and the same goes for makeup to. I’ll also use it when a character is suppose to stand out or look like something or someone specifically.
