About Makeup Artists

Professional makeup is essential for any video production where talent appears on camera. Assignment Desk provides experienced Makeup Artists (MUAs) who specialize in HD and 4K broadcast-ready makeup application. Our MUAs understand the unique demands of on-camera work — controlling shine, ensuring even skin tones, and creating natural-looking makeup that holds up under professional lighting for hours. Our Makeup Artists bring their own professional kits stocked with broadcast-grade cosmetics, brushes, and tools. They work efficiently to prepare talent between setups, handling everything from basic powder and touch-ups to full corrective makeup, grooming, and hair styling. They are experienced with diverse skin tones and types, ensuring every subject looks their best on camera. Assignment Desk Makeup Artists are available in all 24 markets and can be added to any crew booking. They work on corporate shoots, commercials, broadcast news, reality TV, live events, and photo sessions. All MUAs are W2 employees with full liability coverage.
