The world of digital makeup effects is new and exciting for innovative makeup artists who want to be on the cutting edge of their industry. Graduates can expect to find work in the film, television, and gaming.

MAKEUP ARTISTRY DIPLOMA BENEFITS

In cosmetics, beauty, and makeup, there is always something new to learn. The fundamentals are important, but studying in a specialized area isn’t always enough to get work opportunities. Sometimes, building upon this knowledge base is necessary to highlight your creativity and make you a more marketable candidate for jobs.

Our Comprehensive and Digital program path is an opportunity to explore another area of expertise in makeup artistry. Ideally, this gives a graduate the appeal of having a combination specialty, making you a valuable member to any makeup team.

CMU’s makeup artistry diploma can elevate graduates to new opportunities. These opportunities often have titans of art and media at the helm. They are always looking for makeup artistry graduates to contribute with versatile skills. With a diploma of makeup artistry, you stand out as a qualified and knowledgeable candidate, capable of meeting the challenge of a broad range of projects!
