Face Chart Ideas for Emcee

 

Face Charts

 

 

 

 

 

This first face chart was inspired by one of my images on my moodboard. What you can't see on the face chart is that the blue on the face would go up into the hair so it all blends together. I liked the idea of covering one side of the face. Almost like he's hiding. The materials used were kryolan foundation for the base. The rosy cheeks using illamasque powder blush. The eye I used the urban decay naked pallete and the blue was from the supracolor pallete. I used blending brushes to blend the edges. I felt that the main focus was the blu on the face which didn't allow me to really do anything else otherwise the face would look too busy.

 

The face chart above was my second idea. I started really focusing on blending. I liked the idea of doing big eyebrows. I felt that Emcee has very prominent eyebrows in the film 'Cabaret'. I also wanted to do dark lips but looking at the face chart I feel that it looks too gothic and not playful enough to go with the 'Club Culture' scene. The materials I used were Kryolan foundation for the base. Suprecolor black for the eyebrows and lips. And contouring with a mixture of Illamasque powder blusher and Nars bronzer. Overall I don't feel like this face chart really portrays the character Emcee. 

After watching the face chart tutorial it really helped me to create some face charts from scratch. As you can see below my face charts have been improved and I have hand drawn them which helps me really create different faces.

 



 

The face chart above was really me playing around with face charts and using different materials I wouldn't normall use on a face chart. I did lots of contouring using Nars Bronzer and my Kryolan pallete. I liked creating the eyebrows and seeing what shape I could make. I used the supracolor pallete black to do them. I also used the same pallete but in blue to do the eyes. And the lips I did lots of shading and I used lip liner. I felt looking at the face chart it didn't really stand out to me and also felt it was too feminine for Emcee. I wanted to do my mask idea to show a different side to Emcee.

 

 

This is the last of my experimental face charts. I feel like m ideas are starting to come together. I really like the idea of black across the face like a mask and then blending down onto the face. The look is too gothic with the lips and after looking at Lee Bowery I want to add some colour to Emcee. I want to stick to the mask idea but also want to create something fun too. For my final face chart I hope to get the right mixture for Emcee to show his true character.
