July Semester: Just around the corner!

Our July Semester is just a few weeks away!  We still have a few seats available.  This is ideal for those with availability primarily on weekends (Fridays & Saturday’s).

New Intensive Semester

We have just release a new Intensive Semester for March 2015!  Intensive is identical to our standard semesters, but consolidated into a two week time frame.  This is ideal for those traveling from out of state or with limited availability. 

Teaching Philosophy

Our Makeup School, The Glam Academy, teaches makeup artistry through the fundamental elements of fine art, producing strong, detailed, and humble Artists, defined, not confined, by Makeup as a Medium. Our Course Syllabus, seemingly extensive, just scratches the surface of the comprehensive education provided in The Glam Academy.  â€¨â€¨Our program is taught through a purely artistic lens using hands activities that allow the students to physically and visually understand a particular methodology, topic, or technique. Makeup Artistry is a title rarely associated with the spectrum of Artist’s defined by their medium, (watercolor painter, oil painter, sculptor etc.) The Makeup Artist, at least in our world, is an Artist working with makeup as a medium.  This allows us to use the universal laws and elements of art that any other medium would use to justify their decisions. We typically understand makeup through the dominant female role in our life, either accepting, or rebelling against what this person has deemed to be a “truthâ€.   Once we can isolate and identify what is fact and what is preference, we can remove the filter in front of our eyes and approach the world of makeup artistry with a much wider artistic range and capacity not hindered by “preferenceâ€.

                         

Highlights from June Intensive Student Portfolio

All of the below students entered the program with a range of experience– some already dabbling in makeup artistry, others without ever picking up a brush.Once the educational days are completed, where makeup is understood through the natural laws of art– they are able to apply their new understanding of makeup to every look they create. 
Every Lab day there is a new look & theme that is demonstrated by Alexa and then re-created by students. For every look, we provide our students with models (rather than working on each other).

After the makeup is completed the student is able to make a deeper footprint on the image with our photo studio filled with wardrobe, jewelry, and other accessories.
After the model is completely done, they go into a full photoshoot, where the student is able to further assist by bouncing light, jumping in and touching up.
This really simulated the real world of makeup artistry and provides the students with the skill sets outside of makeup to be a well-rounded artist.
