With the success of our 1 year course in 2011, the LA Team are proud to announce their next available ITEC accredited 1 year specialist make-up course will commence on 24th October 2011.
This unique and advanced level programme provides students with the most intensive and practical training in professional Make-Up Artistry. The course, which commences from a beginners level, focuses on working in the fashion, beauty, media, film and theatre sectors with classes consisting of practical based tuition. The full time course runs for the academic year Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm.
The course trains students in every aspect of make-up and this is something that no other course in Ireland offers. Students will learn everything from bridal and high fashion make-up to photographic make-up to the more specialist subjects such as Special FX, Prosethics, Air-Brushing and Character make-up. Students are also trained in barbering, hair styling for make-up artists and business and professional studies.
LA Make-Up Academy offers a “One Year Open Door Policy”. That is, a graduate may repeat a class or photo-shoot free of charge for up to one year after they have graduated. This policy is exclusive to LA Make-Up Academy.
For a make-up artist, an outstanding portfolio is essential and the students on this course will enjoy ongoing photo-shoots throughout the year with some of Ireland’s best photographers and they will receive a CD with their 24 image portfolio.
Work experience is integral to this course and our graduates have worked at events such as Dublin Fashion Festival, VIP Style Awards and Xpose and they have worked on shoots for Hotpress, TV Now, RTE Guide, Confetti and also a number of short films and TV shows. LA Make-Up Academy provide real life work experience to prepare their students to the highest standard for their careers as make-up artists.
