Below is Our Proposal
Our PowerPoint version
THE DECLINING FACE ART
Chinese Face Painting
Target Audience:
People who are interested in face painting, people who are not aware of the decline culture
Why we chose the topic?
We want to promote the awareness of the Chinese mask painting. Realized the Chinese Opera sensation is declining. Furthermore, people are not aware the meaning behind face painting.
From ASIAONE.com
(Chinese street opera struggles to keep curtain raised)
“Since Singapore reformed its linguistic policy in the 1970s to favor Mandarin, young people are now less likely to understand the dialects used in street opera.”
What is this all about?
An educational application that teaches people some facts on Chinese face painting and can actually customize their own mask. Showcase of a total of 126 masks.
