All great answers…check it out.Ī: A call sheet (the document supplied by your agency prior to a shoot, which contains all the details about the job you have been booked for) very rarely mentions clothing, but there are exceptions. This will put you ahead of the game so you don’t look or be prone to act the fool.Ī few more answers from other Makeup Artists about what they wear to work and why. …in other words get info about what,where, whom, time, location and weather conditions are going to be. …simple clean manicured nails for the men and clean groomed mid length nails for the ladies. I once heard my client fire the wardrobe stylist because she felt like she was attempting to out dress her, look better than her (yes it’s they’re insecurity but I can cost you your job). your designer wear and jewelry collection (save it for your personal down time). Also a word to the wise as a caution… Never be too flashy with you dressing i.e. …being comfortable is key here because you will find yourself in some situations where you will be working exceedingly long hours or varied weather conditions. …most people think that this is not important to what you wear on set BUT a clean kit is part of your wardrobe! It speaks volumes about how you are personally, how you keep yourself and the health, care and hygiene of the products you use and how you will ultimately care for your clients. …lets just say we work extremely close to people in their faces and in tight places most times With that said here’s my answer to the question.Ī: The real reason why Makeup Artists (and work crews) originally started wearing black was because in the live theater world backstage the crew wore black so they could still keep working backstage and not be seen by the audience while working.Crew would blend into the background with the black curtains and walls and usually everything backstage is black. You may not have the money now to build your wardrobe but in time you will and then you build your wardrobe piece by piece. You may not be the top fashionista but at least be presentable and groomed. My response is not just about wearing black but about what we wear and how we present ourselves in general.
I’ve been asked this question on several occasions about why Makeup Arists always wear black. Written by NZINGHA for TheGlamSquadFiles™
