Creative Break: Makeup: From Trauma to Tattoos (March 23 to 24, 2026)

Creative Break features two-day workshops led by experienced professionals in Film Production, Animation, Acting, Digital Design, Makeup, and Sound Design. You will learn about B.C.’s booming creative economy and discover how VFS’s accelerated one-year education model can fast-track your career in the industry.

In this workshop, you will create painted skulls to better understand facial anatomy and the principles of highlight & shadow. Then, you will learn to create tattoo transfers – designed by yourself! You’ll also learn about and apply various injury makeups: blood, bruises, cuts, and black eyes. And finally, you will apply & colour the tattoos you designed.
