Independent directors often come from the fringe, so there are usually good horror plays to be found in need of a makeup artist. Fringe plays usually have a short run, and working can be mostly in the evening. This requires less time commitment than the block booking of a film, so contemporary makeup artists who undertake other jobs to supplement their income are ideal for new makeup artists. Organizational skills get developed in this environment, and stage work often requires a greater intimacy between actors and makeup artists, with more shared space and collaboration than is usual on feature films.<\/p>\n

As film scenes can be retaken, cut, and changed, working in the theater also helps gain professional standards, where makeup is perfect every time.<\/p>\n

In recent years, film makeup has undergone massive changes from application techniques to new prosthetic materials. Stage makeup has taken on these changes, but it is now a uniquely creative place where it is possible to get a significant dramatic effect from a mixture of old and new materials. Horror often utilizes dramatic lighting, so tailoring makeup to work will produce excellent results, often with little time and budget.<\/p>\n
