A lot of the men on TOS wore eyeshadow because they year the Star Trek premiered was the same year that CBS went to full color broadcasts. Supposedly, the make up artists were used to stage makeup for black and white and it took them a while to dial it in.
Certain colours were picked-up by the B&W cameras in certain ways. Here's the set from the Addams Family TV series, which was broadcast in B&W:

But surely they were designed to be watched on 30ft movie screens?
I don't think old-make up Karen Gillan looked very old in Doctor Who. Looks like she's in her thirties to me, not abandoned on a lifeless planet for decades.
Looks pretty good, by your writing the look is not intentional though?Seeing as we're talking about color on film......
This is a scene from the 1937 film Sh, The Octopus.
Explanation from a Reddit comments section.
The actor has red make up applied to her face and a graduated filter, which goes from red on one half to blue on the other, is placed in front of the lens. At the start of the transformation shot the red half of the filter is positioned in front of the lens, through which the red make up blends with her skin tone, rendering it effectively invisible, then, as she "transforms", the filter slides across to it's blue half, through which the red make up is darkened, and the make up becomes visible. The give away is her eye colour; at the start, under the red half of the filter, her irises appear dark but, as the filter transitions to blue, they lighten.
They did her so dirty.Mindhunter S2 had some inconsistent makeup effects that were heavily criticized.
You're God damn right bro. We've let this shit slide for too long.
Guess I gotta catch up
Indeed. Here is Susan Sarandon at 60 for comparison:That's arguably one of the more flattering shots available; she definitely looks older in other images:
I think the makeup is overall pretty effective.
Wait, this is really it?

I really hope one day we get a full breakdown about what on earth happened here. The last episode has all the hallmarks of production that fell apart behind the scenes and had to cobble together something from the bits and pieces leftover.
lmao dude looks like he's getting setup for undercover boss

I found out a few days ago that the yellow uniforms that Kirk, Chekov, and Sulu wore was actually lime green, but showed up yellow on screen because of the lighting and film stock they used. Sounds like it took a while for them to get used to the switch to color.
Jennifer Lawrence's Mystique really went through some dramatic changes. I think partly because she didn't want to go through the exttensive makeup process everytime.

To add the necessary texture so that the makeup will show up right on film. Mystique in Dark Phoenix looks like a cosplayer who painted herself blue for Comic-Con. Surely you can see how much better she looked in the three previous films?Honestly she didn't need to go through that much at all to begin with.
Just blue skin and red hair, maybe contacts. No idea why they thought all this crazy extra shit was necessary.
Darth Maul is dead to me now.HD releases ruined a lot of special effects from old movies. Another example is Darth Maul's horns in The Phantom Menace:
They're literally pasted on lol
Or at least done a high and tight so the bald cap would work.Lex Luthor bald cap in the last season of Smallville.
Like come on Michael Rosenbaum, this show made you famous, you could have shaved that shit again for the big finale

COVID fucked production up pretty bad with the finale. I feel like they half did this on purpose because it would have been a waste given their limited resources for anything better.Wait, this is really it?
I've seen the image before but I assumed it was from, I don't know, a comedic beat in an episode or something. Fascinatingly terrible, this is truly the king of the mountain.
I think he is saying Mystique doesn't need all that weird crap stuck all over her face in the first place.To add the necessary texture so that the makeup will show up right on film.

Covid happened, they were pretty open about the fact that they had to rewrite stuff around covid restrictions during filming. They planned on having more characters in the finale, including Castiel, but couldn't do more because of the travel restrictions etc.

Wonder if they'll one day tweak this digitally like they've done with half the movies.HD releases ruined a lot of special effects from old movies. Another example is Darth Maul's horns in The Phantom Menace:

If I am remembering right Bryan Singer in the first X-Men movie added the scales and the nudity because he didn't think people would understand her shape changing without itI think he is saying Mystique doesn't need all that weird crap stuck all over her face in the first place.
And I agree. It look dumb.
Really freaking stupid and sexist honestly.If I am remembering right Bryan Singer in the first X-Men movie added the scales and the nudity because he didn't think people would understand her shape changing without it
i dont disagree but lol at using susan sarandon as a benchmark for ageing. thats just not fair
I mean they also thought the xmen had to be in black batman-like suits for the first movies. the comic book movie landscape was very different. Took fucking forever for women to have any real roles at all in comic book movies, even look at more recent films like the raimi spiderman films.Really freaking stupid and sexist honestly.
They clearly just wanted to have a naked woman in the movie.
This is a great example. Everything in this sequel looks worse. Mickey Rourke's makeup, the lighting, seriously everything.Oh I have a good one. I think everyone has forgotten that there was a Sin City 2 at this point, but the titular story of "A Dame To Kill For" gave us an early story for Dwight, who was played by Clive Owen in the first one. Josh Brolin plays him in this one but gets reconstructive surgery to hide his identity, which every character praises for looking nothing like he used to. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to slip Clive Owen back in but...
The funny part is I remember they had problems with the film developers being some kind of sorcerers. When they did make-up tests for an Oriion slave girl, the footage kept coming back looking normal.I found out a few days ago that the yellow uniforms that Kirk, Chekov, and Sulu wore was actually lime green, but showed up yellow on screen because of the lighting and film stock they used. Sounds like it took a while for them to get used to the switch to color.
However, the footage of these tests kept coming back without the green skin being visible. Puzzled by this, the makeup crew kept painting the actress again and again with other shades of green, hoping it would be visible on film. This went on for a period of three consecutive days. Afterward, the makeup artists discovered that the film processing lab was "de-coloring" her because they didn't know she was supposed to be green.
Yeah there are some episodes that they're pretty clearly lime green:
just.. go stand in your light
Yup!Really freaking stupid and sexist honestly.

The contouring in the cheeks is what I mainly notice as different.
That looks fine in a drawing, or a comic, but when you're just solid blue with nothing else in live action often just looks like...an actor with some blue makeup on. There's a good reason most superhero costumes or designs need a lot of texture or detail added in live action, including the very faithful ones. Sometimes too much but to go 1:1 with a comics design usually winds up looking like cosplay.I think he is saying Mystique doesn't need all that weird crap stuck all over her face in the first place.
