Characterization
Explanation:
‘ Two methods of characterization often distinguished are those in which the author shows without comment a characters' words and actions, implying rather than describing their traits; or tells the reader directly about the characters--explicitly, even intrusively guiding the audience's understanding of characters through commentary and evaluation.’
The UVic Writer’s Guide — Literary and Rhetorical Terms

‘If a character seems flat and yet seems to change, it is usually because the characterization is not well written.’

Após a discussão proposta por Oliver (acima), acredito que a tradução “stage makeup” também se encaixe, dependendo do contexto.

Se houvesse uma breve descrição da disciplina, ajudaria a deduzir com maior facilidade.
