Hair & Makeup Designer, Oct 2016 – Dec 2016


I worked as the Hair & Makeup Designer for Illinois State University's 2016 production of It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play.

As the Hair & Makeup designer, I researched evocative images from the 1940's, looked at colors of makeup from the time period, worked closely with the costume designer, & came up with a realistic styling of hair & makeup from this time period that the actors were able to recreate.

I also styled a wig & facial hair for actors, which blended in perfectly with the 1940's time period, & looked natural on stage next to the other actors.
