Perfecting the Look: How Makeup Artistry Enhances SVG’s TimePayment Commercial

Delivering Excellence Through Expert Video Production

Skillman Video Group is nearing the completion of a dynamic web video commercial series for TimePayment.

This project has been a meticulous journey through the essential stages of video production, including concept development, scripting, casting, shooting, and post-production.

Attention to Detail: From Casting to Final Touches

Crafting the Perfect Character

Casting the right actor was pivotal for the success of this commercial series.

While the chosen actor was incredibly talented, he appeared slightly younger than the target demographic.

To bridge this gap, we employed a skilled makeup artist who expertly added touches of grey to the actor’s beard and refined his overall look to align more closely with the desired age and persona.

The Role of a Professional Makeup Artist

During the shoot, the makeup artist played a critical role in maintaining the actor’s appearance.

The challenges of intense set lights and the physical demands placed on the actor required continuous adjustments to his makeup and hair.

This ensured that he looked consistent throughout the day’s shoot, maintaining the authenticity and professionalism of the production.

Maintaining Aesthetic Consistency

The makeup artist’s ability to adapt quickly and address any perspiration or dishevelment due to the demanding conditions was crucial.

Their work ensured that the actor’s appearance remained flawless, contributing significantly to the overall quality of the commercial.

Building Strong Foundations in Video Production

Each Element as a Pillar of Success

At Skillman Video Group, we view each component of the video production process as a critical pillar—essential for supporting and enhancing the project’s goals.
