Performing arts production, performing arts business (though I'm already qualified in business anyway), the 'historical context of performance', performing arts production planning, production for theatre performance, working freelance in the performing arts industry, design method, stage costume making, make-up for performers, make-up design and application, full body make-up, special effects make-up, make-up using prosthetics, period make-up for stage, hair design for performance, period hair design and wig making (HARDEST THING EVER), hair styling and dressing for performers.
Pheeeew! Somewhere along the way I also got an LCFE in hair dressing and the equivalent to an A Level in English.
Would I recommend the course? Unless you're a make-up newbie or NEED the qualification - no. I can honestly say that in two years all I really learnt was airbrushing, prosthetics and hair dressing/ wig making. That may seem like plenty, but in all honesty - it isn't! A lot of people left the course completely clueless, not because they weren't commited, but because the course was poorly structured, poorly taught and did not have enough of what I would consider basic content for a make-up course. Never were we taught colour theory, what products work best for different skin types, photographic make-up was discussed for about five minutes (as well as bridal) and never were we taught about ingredients within cosmetics. Luckily, I'm pretty knowledgeable in these areas already, but really - it's so basic! Why was it not taught?
College was fun though, I LOVED some of the units, but if I could go back in time, I'd have done an art course instead and relied on what has taught me best make-up wise so far - other beauty addicts, a pile of books and most importantly - experience.
