Alina Stout is a New York and New Jersey based artist specializing in Beauty for productions and events, as well as character design and special effects. From an early age she was interested in characters from movies and how they were created. She was fascinated by the work that went into doing hair and make up to create and transform someone who was preparing to go on the red carpet or to play a supernatural character for a movie. Her love for performance and her interest in makeup design lead her to attend a special effects class at Make-up Designory over the summer for one week. After that she realized she had a passion for creating and working in makeup. She then attended the Master Media Program for six months at Make-Up Designory. It was during this intense training that she designed makeup for a series of beauty and fashion photoshoots and designed a range of characters.
