MARIETTA'S VIRTUAL MAKEUP ACADEMY

MVMA will help you grow your career as a Makeup Artist or Hairstylist in the Film & Television Industry by taking the mystery out of working on set. There are two ways to learn -- through your own experience, which could cost you your job; or the experience of others. Use my 30 years of experience to overcome hurdles and stumbling blocks to shine and look like the superstar you are.

MVMA classes bring you real experiences from my 30 plus years on set. We walk you through all the fundamentals you need to know that a makeup brush or hair brush cannot teach you--the business of this industry--your duties and responsibilities as an artist working on a Film & Television set. >How to read & breakdown a script, continuity, the call sheet. >How to prepare yourself for working on-location. >The union and how you can become a part of it. >The pros and cons of a personal versus a department head. >The job lingo and job descriptions of those you work alongside. >Your role and how it relates to the different departments. >Downloadable checklists to help you navigate your way from day one. >Most important, how to build your on-set confidence so you don't stand out like a newbie.

You should take these classes if: >Your career is stalled and you need a jump-start. >You have been winging it from job-to-job and piecing-it-together hoping you won't get called out. >You have self-doubt and keep wondering if you will ever reach your true potential, since there is so much you never learned. >You are proficient in the artistry but do not know much about the duties and responsibilities of working on a set. >You do not understand how to navigate this industry. >You keep searching Facebook groups for the answers to working in production. >You have built a career in unscripted TV and want to make the switch to scripted TV.
