Broadcasting screen test
Well, to say the least, placing “stage make-up” on felt pretty good, and looked better than I expected.
For this task, my Uni professor in broadcasting set up a little activity for us to do, a SCREEN TEST to showcase that as future newsroom presenters/broadcasters need to back up their charm and knowledge with the basic key to look good… make-up!
So “enjoy” scrolling through the pictures and checking out how I faired (I must say, that made myself look pretty decent than I imagined… and to look less tired than I usually am. Also, I have fair complexion to begin with so I just used minimal product.
( Just some Foundation, Concealer, Setting powder, and a little Chapstick should do the trick! Also learning through the web helped out a lot because I tried free-handing it and ended up badly.)
For my attire, I kept it to the bare minimal with my trusty dark green long sleeve polo with brown accents that further puts attention to my face and complexion.
I went for a more relaxed look and almost looking like a sports or entertainment anchor with not wearing any sort of tie and not buttoning-up my polo shirt all the way.
It may just look like I just slapped on powder and used up the whole bottle of foundation, but really my complexion is fair so it only took a couple pats on my face, taking the term “light make-up” to its literal meaning because I didn’t want my look to be too “cakey”(foundation and concealer).
