        1. All exposed skin will be covered with white makeup.  Minimal lining, color(s) and/or glitter will be used to express the features of the eyes, nose, and mouth.  The classic Whiteface generally does not wear a comedy nose.
        2. A white skullcap would be worn in lieu of a colored wig.
        3. The styles of wardrobe may vary, but often are generally roomy and well fitted and may have a detachable collar.

        6. Gloves should cover the hands and wrists and should be white or colored to fit the wardrobe.
        7. Normal sized shoes (i.e. Ballet or dancing slippers) would be worn in lieu of large comedy shoes
      2. Comedy White Face: Comedy White Face is today the most common White Face clown.  When performing with the Auguste and/or Tramp, this clown will usually take charge, setting up the routine, throwing rather than taking the pie, slap, or kick. The Comedy Whiteface appears more exaggerated and cartoonish than the Classic Whiteface. (Priscilla Mooseburger, Frosty Little, Tammy Parish, and Ronald McDonald are examples.)
        1. Face is completely covered with white base.  Colors may be used to add features, highlights, and decorations.
        2. Varying styles and colors of clown wigs are usually used in lieu of only the skullcap.  The color of the wig is generally chosen to accent another color in the wardrobe.
        3. Use of glitter, jewels, and additional accessories is acceptable.
        4. Competitors can choose to have all skin covered by makeup and/or wardrobe. Although some of the Comedy White Face examples given do not wear gloves, judges may deduct marks if they think the wardrobe would be more complete with gloves.
      3. Auguste – Exaggerated, impish, cartoonish and prank-like with a more comic face than the White Face may define the Auguste. (Examples are Leon McBride, Michael “Coco” Polokavs, Aurora Krause and Roy “Cookie” Brown
        1. Base color of face is usually a flesh tone with pink or reddish hues.
        2. Features are painted on or highlighted with red, black, white or other colors.
        3. Competitors can choose to have all skin covered by makeup and/or wardrobe. Although some of the Auguste examples given do not wear gloves, judges may deduct marks if they think the wardrobe would be more complete with gloves.
      4. Tramp/Hobo: May be either happy or sad. (Examples are Emmett Kelly, Otto Griebling and Red “Freddy the Freeloader” Skelton.)
        1. Face has a flesh tone base that is accented with red, white, black, or gray.  A dirty effect is sometimes created with the makeup.
        2. Hobo may wear old clothes that are neatly kept or bright and colorful.
        3. Tramp may wear old clothes that are more tattered, torn, and/or patched.
        4. Female Tramp could be a Bag Lady character
        5. Competitors may have skin not fully covered by makeup and/or wardrobe. (ie., wrists, fingerless gloves, neck)
      5. Character/Novelty: must depict a specific IDENTIFIABLE character in total clown makeup.  (Examples: baseball player, sailor, nurse, chef, Keystone Cop, etc.) The Character competitor is allowed to hold a prop during the “pose” part of the competition
        1. Makeup must compliment the character and may be White Face, Auguste, Tramp/Hobo, or Clown Light.
        2. The Character must be apparent to the judges.  If the judges cannot understand or define the character being portrayed, the Competitor may lose points or be disqualified.
        3. Competitors may have skin not fully covered by makeup and/or wardrobe.

         

      6. Clown Light: This category features less makeup and lighter wardrobe features than traditional clown categories. (Examples are Kenny Ahern, Jim Dixon, Richard Snowberg, Kathy Keaton)  It is popular in warmer climates and often used in Caring Clown situations such as hospital or nursing home visits.
        1. This category is defined by clown character and clown actions rather than by traditional full-face makeup and full wardrobe.  Makeup can be basic elements of White Face, Auguste, or Tramp/Hobo but is applied lighter and will have skin showing on face, neck, and/or arms.
        2. Clown Light may or may not wear a false clown nose or a clown wig.  Neither is required.
        3. Each clown will be required to strike four (4) different poses to show the character through facial expressions or body language.  Each clown will be required to perform a “Funny Bit” (maximum one minute allowed) as part of the competition. This Funny Bit should show the character and represent the comedic style of the clown category being shown as Clown Light (White Face. Auguste, or Tramp/Hobo).
        4. Clown Light will be judged on the following 4 categories with 25 points per category: Makeup, Wardrobe, Performance, Total Look. Considerations for each category might include the following:
          1. Make-up design: Is it light but clown-like for the category represented: white face, auguste, or tramp/hobo?  Application:  is it neat and attractive?
          2. Wardrobe: Is it light but clown-like for the category represented:  white face, auguste, or tramp/hobo?  Do the accessories, (including but not required, such as a hat, shoes, gloves, false nose, or wig,) contribute to the light look of the clown?
          3. Performance: Does the character of the clown show in the demeanor, poses, and performance done in this competition?
          4. Total Look:  Overall assessment of how well the lighter makeup and wardrobe has defined the clown character represented.
