1 .MAN: Hello and welcome to the film making podcast. In this week's episode, Claire Lemarre talks to us about how to become a makeup artist. Claire's been working as a makeup artist in the film industry for over 20 years and has lots of useful advice about how to get started.
大家好,欢迎收听电影制作播客。在本周的节目中,克莱尔·勒马尔(Claire Lemarre)将和我们聊聊如何成为一名化妆师。克莱尔在电影行业的化妆师岗位上工作了20多年,对于如何入行有很多实用的建议。
2 .WOMAN: Thanks lan. Well, before you can become a makeup artist on films you have to spend about 2 years working as a makeup trainee.
谢谢伊恩。在你能成为一名电影化妆师之前,你必须先做大约两年的化妆实习生。
3 .A good place to get your first job would be on a low budget short film. Of course, this means that you'll be working for free. But it's often worth it for the experience.
第一份工作的理想去处可能是一部低成本的短片。当然,这意味着你将无偿工作。但为了积累经验,这通常是值得的。
4 .Make sure your transport costs are covered - and remember, there's very unlikely to be any catering provided, so bring plenty of food.
确保你的交通费用能报销——并且记住,Q11 那里极大概率不会提供任何餐饮,所以要带足食物。
5 .If you're lucky, you might start out on a big budget film where you'll get the most useful experience. On productions like this, makeup and hair styling are separate departments - so you won't need to bring your curling tongs!
如果你运气好,可能一开始就能在大制作电影中工作,在那里你能获得最实用的经验。在这样的剧组中,化妆和发型是分开的部门——所以你不需要带卷发棒!
6 .But you're likely to get the opportunity to work with a range of age groups, as well as different ethnicities.
但你很可能有机会与不同年龄段以及不同种族的人合作。
7 .Doing makeup for special effects is highly specialised, so don't expected to be offered any practical experience in that.
特效化妆是非常高度专业化的工作,所以别指望能在那里获得任何相关的实操经验。
8 .One problem with working in the makeup department is that it's a high-pressure environment. There are very few times when you'll be bored or have nothing to do.
在化妆部工作的一个问题是,这是一个高压环境。你几乎没有无聊或无事可做的时候。
9 .It can be stressful but you'll see that the top makeup artists are very professional - even when they're having to work with directors who are impatient, or unhappy with the makeup artist's work.
这可能会让人有压力,但你会看到顶级的化妆师都非常专业——即使他们面对的导演缺乏耐心,或者对化妆师的工作不满意。
10 .Follow your supervisor's lead and try to remain calm at all times. I've worked with many very famous actors over the years. At first, I found it overwhelming and could hardly speak, I was so in awe.
听从主管的指示,尽量时刻保持冷静。多年来我与许多非常著名的演员合作过。起初,我觉得这让人不知所措,我敬畏得几乎说不出话来。
11 .That's preferable, by the way, to becoming too excited and asking for selfies. Now meeting the talent is just a normal part of the job and to be honest most actors don't look that special without all the makeup!
顺便说一句,这总比过于激动并要求自拍要好。现在接触这些演员只是工作的常态,老实说,大多数演员如果不化妆,看起来也没那么特别!
12 .Every makeup trainee will need a makeup kit, which they'll be expected to have with them at all times. Just the essentials will do for the kinds of tasks you'll be given - it won't be anything complicated.
每个化妆实习生都需要一个化妆包,并被要求随时带在身边。带上必需品就能应付分配给你的任务了——不会有什么复杂的东西。
13 .It's worth looking at what the other makeup artists have in their kits - but whatever you do, don't borrow anything without asking first.
看看其他化妆师的化妆包里有什么是很值得的——但无论如何,未经同意绝对不要借用任何东西。
14 .It's very important to build your portfolio. You should take photos of all the work you do and ideally show the different stages of makeup application if you can. But remember you'll need to get approval from the makeup designer in charge of the department.
建立你的作品集非常重要。你应该为你做的所有工作拍下照片,如果可能的话,最好能展示化妆的不同阶段。但要记住,你需要获得部门主管化妆设计师的批准。
15 .As you'll be sending your portfolio digitally, you won't need to get photos printed.
因为你将以数字方式发送你的作品集,所以你不需要把照片洗出来。
16 .So what does a makeup trainee actually do? You need to think about whether you're the right kind of person to do the job and whether you'd enjoy it.
那么化妆实习生实际上要做什么呢?你需要考虑自己是否适合做这份工作,以及你是否会喜欢它。
17 .So, to give you some idea, here are some of the things you might be required to do.
为了让你有个概念,以下是你可能需要做的一些事情。
18 .You may be asked to help prep an actor ready for makeup. Some actors will arrive having already cleansed and moisturized their skin. But sometimes you'll need to step in and get this done without wasting any time, otherwise the makeup artist will get behind schedule.
你可能会被要求协助演员做好化妆前的准备工作。有些演员到达时已经做好了面部清洁和保湿。但有时候你需要介入,抓紧时间完成这项工作,否则化妆师的进度就会落后。
19 .Trainees play a useful role in continuity. It will be your responsibility to take photos, log them digitally and print out a hard copy to put in each actor's file.
实习生在保持妆造连贯(连戏)方面发挥着重要作用。你将负责拍照、进行数字记录,并打印出纸质版放入每位演员的档案中。
20 .This information needs to be kept in good order as a reshoot can mean replicating makeup months later.
这些信息需要妥善保管,因为补拍可能意味着要在几个月后复制完全一样的妆容。
21 .General duties mean doing anything from getting the teas and coffees to putting on a wash.
日常杂务意味着从端茶倒水到洗涤物品什么都要做。
22 .Having a positive attitude and being willing to do whatever is asked of you will help you get your next film job.
保持积极的态度,并愿意做要求你做的任何事,将有助于你获得下一份电影工作。
23 .You won't be asked to apply makeup to any of the principal cast, only the extras. If there are dozens of extras involved you'll need to keep up a swift pace and not spend too long on each person. It takes quite a lot of confidence to be able to do this well.
你不会被要求给任何主要演员化妆,只能给群众演员化。如果有几十个群众演员,你需要保持快速的节奏,不能在每个人身上花太长时间。要做好这一点需要很大的自信。
24 .OK now about terms and conditions.
好了,现在谈谈工作条款和条件。
