Example: Death Maker
Explain the purpose
We are curious about the difference between death makers and makeup artists especially when the interviewee mentioned she transferred her job from a makeup artist to a death maker. Thus, we compared the difference between the two jobs on the basis of the material we studied (See Table 1 below). The number of makeup artists in Taiwan is relatively more than that of death makers. As to popularity, people like makeup artists more than death makers. However, makeup artists’ salary is less than death makers. Surprisingly, death makers’ working hours are much longer than those of makeup artists. Death makers do this job because of money, while makeup artists do their job because of their interest. Concerning advantages and disadvantages, death maker’s salary is usually high. Compared to makeup artists, people want to approach “Death Maker” less. Makeup artists can develop their ideas heartily, but it’s hard to identify with. It is also found the languages they use are different when they are working. Death makers usually use Taiwanese and Hakka. Makeup artists often use Chinese and English.
