Fashion Make-Up Artist:
The Image Professional
To become a successful Pro Make-Up Artist in the fashion industry, it is essential to possess the required technical skills and professionalism, with a comprehensive knowledge of all aspects of contemporary makeup artistry, from basic rules to "digital first" executions. This is due to the increasing demand for specialized professionals with high employment opportunities in all major sectors of the industry.
In recent years, visual communication has experienced significant acceleration due to the exponential growth of web and social media platforms, as well as the advent of augmented reality and artificial intelligence. This evolution has particularly impacted the beauty and fashion system, expanding the means of communication across all available channels. This includes not only traditional fashion shows and collection presentations but also fashion films, web videos and e-commerce, live streaming, and social shopping. Visual communication has become the focal point for representing a brand, stylist, or designer.
This evolutionary push also fully applies to the cosmetics industry, which has always been attentive to embracing and often anticipating the use of new digital resources and tools. The advent of augmented reality will mark an important step for beauty companies in disseminating makeup and skincare skills, as well as for the interactive and virtual promotion of new collection products, often associated with fashion seasons.
The course, which includes a
Professional Specialization Master in Fashion Make-Up, provides the technical and professional skills to work at a high level of preparedness as a
Make-Up Artist
for
fashion shows, editorial services, lookbooks, advertising campaigns, e-commerce, social media/web platforms, and more.
