On A Film Set

Recently I was asked by my close friend Mikey Andreasson, to be lead makeup artist on his set for a short horror film. Naturally I agreed and asked Mollie Jakubowski to assist me.

Got a few shots from the day...

Ben (played a Jew) and Mollie (assistant MUA)

4K camera. I don't even want mention how much that camera costs

The most badass crew in the business

It was an amazing day, we did mainly SFX looks. Gaunt looking Jews or crazy looking German scientists. I love working with actors and film crew. They're the most interesting and charismatic people. It was very tiring. I arrived on set at 13.30 and left at around 22.30. Long day but there was food and tea and coffee to keep us all going.

I'll post a link to the short film when it is finished.

Retail Therapy 25/05/13

Today's buys differed greatly... Starting from top left:

Kryolan - Collodion (used for creating older looking scars) €18.99

RiverIsland - Sunglasses. Wanted the cat eye frames for awhile now €17.00

Kryolan - Bruise Wheel (colours used for creating bruises) €18.99

Topshop - Bra-let. I've been in dire need of one of these because there are some shirts that you just can't wear a tank top underneath. €25.00 (before student discount)

The reason for the special effects makeup is because I am working on a film tomorrow (Sunday) with a good friend of mine and I am bringing along a fellow makeup artist to assist me as well.

I will have plenty of photos and will be blogging about my experience on set. Looking forward to it!
