 The one-year Certificate in Motion Picture Make-Up is highly practical and hands-on. Students work on collaborative projects with students from our Film, Television, Acting, Photography, and Production Design departments where they can apply the techniques they have learned in a realistic and professional creative environment.
The Certificate in Motion Picture Make-up is the entry requirement for the two-year Diploma in Motion Picture Production Design. However, the one-year exit option affords students the opportunity to obtain a general craft qualification that has credibility and usefulness in the marketplace.
