MAKE-UP ARTISTRY TRAINING PROGRAMMES

Achieve excellence in your make-up artistry.

For more than a decade, make-up artists have relied on the high quality training delivered by Woodbridge Productions to keep their skills updated to ensure they remain competitive in the ever-changing freelance market.

Who we train.

Our Make-Up Update Training Programmes are not suited to every make-up artist.

The majority of make-up artists who train with us are already highly successful, established freelances who need to update and upgrade their skills quickly and to the highest industry standards.

In short – we help working professional make-up artists become even more successful.

These freelances generally do not have the time or desire to "go back to school" or work in a classroom environment with others.

This is why the majority of our Make-Up Update Training Programmes are taught privately within a film or television studio make-up room on an individual one-to-one basis.

Such private, one-to-one programmes allow us to work exclusively with each make-up artist to ensure the training can be specifically directed to address their individual needs.

Many major broadcasters such as the BBC, BSkyB and ITV London also choose to utilise our unique group and individual training programmes to keep their make-up staff and freelances fully updated in the latest make-up techniques.

We are delighted that our broadcaster clients and many of the freelances we train return for skills updates with us time after time.

Here are details of our current Make-Up Update Programmes.


FLAWLESS AIRBRUSH BEAUTY – The Masterclass

ADVANCED FACIAL LIFECASTING MASTERCLASS
One-to-one training in facial lifecasting techniques
Learn to create facial lifecasts safely, accurately and with confidence using both lifecast grade alginate and lifecast grade silicone elastomer.
You’ll begin this intensive programme by becoming acquainted with the materials required to take a facial lifecast with clear explanations of how to prepare and work with each product.
You’ll study both classic and modern facial lifecasting techniques building confidence and skill in creating the facial impression and subsequently producing a high accuracy plaster cast from the negative mould.
The ability to work safely and accurately when taking a lifecast is covered in detail, with particular regard to the model’s safety and comfort throughout the process.
Health & safety and safer working practices are also covered in detail during both the demonstration and practical sessions. Bald cap application, working with differing hair lengths and textures is also discussed and demonstrated.
With practical lifecasting experience, the lifecast artist can quickly and safely create an impression of their model’s features with ‘pore accurate’ detail.

What they say.

Many of the freelances who train with us hear about our update programmes from the friends and colleagues they work with in the industry.

Our promise and guarantee.

If you’ve been searching other websites for a make-up training course, you may now be expecting us to claim that our training is the best available.

The problem is that almost every training provider makes a similar claim - and in truth, what may be "the best" training for one make-up artist may not match the learning style or expectations of another freelance.

Of course, we do promise that every one of our Make-Up Update Programmes will be taught to the highest industry standards.

We also promise that you will be trained by a working make-up artist with a proven track record of expertise in the subject area covered – an expert who has demonstrated that they also possess excellent teaching abilities to enable them to pass on their knowledge and skills to you in a relaxed, friendly and professional environment.

But we still believe that it’s unfair to ask you to risk wasting your money on a training programme that may not be suited to your own learning needs or expectations.

We therefore offer a unique Money Back Training Guarantee on all of our Make-Up Update programmes.

You can read our full Money Back Training Guarantee by clicking here

You’ll find no "weasel clauses" in our Money Back Training Guarantee, just a promise to refund 100% of your money if our training doesn’t meet your requirements or expectations – and, of course, your statutory rights remain unaffected by this guarantee.

You don’t even need to worry about the embarrassment of asking us for a refund if you find our training isn’t quite what you expected.

We will make sure that we ask you at lunch-time (on a one day programme) or by the end of tuition on your first day (on a two day programme) whether you wish to continue with the training.

If, at that time, you would prefer to receive a courteous refund of the entire seminar fee paid, we will immediately arrange this for you – no questions asked and no hard feelings!

The only thing we would ask you to note is that if you decide to claim a refund, you will be unable to take the seminar notes, bonuses and support material with you when you leave the programme.

Your invitation.

We would like to invite you to join the growing list of top make-up freelances who have already updated their make-up skills on a Woodbridge Productions training programme - confident in the knowledge that you will receive tuition not only to the highest industry standards but also matched to your own specific needs – or your money back.

Dates are always extremely limited on our one-to-one Make-Up Update Programmes.

We look forward to welcoming you on a Make-Up Update Programme soon.

If you’re not quite ready for our training programmes…

As mentioned earlier, our Make-Up Update Programmes are primarily aimed at established freelances seeking to upgrade their existing make-up skills.

We are also always delighted to train dynamic newly graduated make-up artists to assist them in acquiring additional skills that will rapidly advance their career.

But please note that we do not directly provide basic entry-level training in make-up artistry.

We do provide group training to a small number of elite make-up schools either as "one-off" demonstrations or as a regular component of their long-term course syllabus.

Colleges wishing to discuss the creation of a bespoke training programme or make-up demonstration should email Woodbridge Productions here or see the services section of this website for further information.

Whilst we don’t provide entry-level make-up training of any kind directly to aspiring make-up artists, we do have an online directory of make-up schools that offer entry-level training and other programmes.

This unique resource guide will help you look for the right training course if you decide that our own Make-Up Update Programmes aren’t what you’re looking for right now.
