“The Makeup Academy is fantastic! I’d recommend anyone who is looking to hire makeup artists for a project to reach out to this school. I am an independent film producer and we are so grateful for the opportunity to work with graduates of The Makeup Academy. They really elevated our project and brought our characters to life. Everything was great from start to finish. The school was beyond helpful and responsive to all of our requests, which we very much appreciated while having to juggle so many aspects of the film. The artists who came to set were professional, amazingly talented, and brought really positive energy while having to be on set for long days. We’re so grateful for our experience with Jena and her team and would highly recommend them for anyone working on future projects!!”
