Hope You don't mind...

Once a week, I am going to post a video of me singing a broadway song. Just so I can get some feedback. I have a cold now so when I am better I will do a video. I just sing broadway all the time! More than half my ipod is from broadway. So that is a new feature coming. And I am all up for constructive critism. I will also take requests!

Black and White Photogrophy

DID YOU KNOW....

That if you are going to make pictures black and white, then the rules for pictures are differnt? Particularly headshots for girls. I will share with you some rules on black and white photography.

BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY

Foundation: more coverage; even tone

Powder: Translucent: use pleanty throughout the shoot

Blush:Small amount of light shade on cheekbone

Eye Shadow:Matte Colors only; no shimmer or brights. Contour and Highlight neutral shade

Eye liner: line for eye definition.

Eyebrows:short strokes with pencil or brush

Concealer: more than day wear under eyes

Lip Liner: Shade darker than lipstick; correct lip shape if necessary

Lipstick:no pinks; day time lipstick

Lip Gloss: highlight center bottom lip

Highlighter: Use foundation, powder, lighter to highlight

Lowlighter:recede or hide areas

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER

* Think tone and shading, not colors

This picture was taken knowing it would be black and white photography.

When I show you what the make up really looked like it looks horrible

for a color picture.

See how awful this one looks? Well that's why it is in black and white.

Wating

I have lots to post about, and lots I have said I would post about. This is a reminder we all need to remember: Don't say you will wait to do something until you have more time.

When will you have more time? If you don't set aside specific time to do something, it will never get done. So its not a good idea to put things off when you have "no time" to do it!
