Reality T.V. -- A day in the life of an MUA...

Had a great time working for Sea Breeze Entertainment yesterday shooting a marketing video for a potential reality t.v. show. Shooting reality t.v. can be fun and very challenging at the same time because you just never know what is going to happen, but isn't that the whole reason we all tune in?

22 people were in and out of my make-up chair in 5 hours yesterday, which meant that I worked my tushy off, but when you are having a blast and the cast and crew are incredibly professional, there is no room for complaints. In fact, it is always wonderful to be included in something new and cutting edge.

Sea Breeze Entertainment is located in San Diego and obtained the Digital Outpost facility to shoot the video. I have blogged several times about the crew at DOP and again I was reunited with many accomplished individuals under that roof. Best part was working with the amazing talents of Marc Bailey from Fox 6 News and Kerstin Lindquist from Channel 10.

So stay tuned and believe me, when this show takes off everyone will want to be a part of it. Noble Fares, producer of the show said, "this should bring a new and unique dimension to educational entertainment." Sounds great to me!

International Car Show -- A night in the life of an MUA...

Got a call from Sonia Weksler, Production Coordinator for Aviatech -- they needed a make-up artist for a commercial shoot for the International Car Show (click here for more info on this event). Amazing talent on this shoot -- Marlee J. Ehrenfeld, President of MJE Marketing, Tonya Mantooth, Executive Producer and Cindy Erdman, Director/DP. It also didn't hurt that there were several hot cars and even hotter models! It was a fun way to spend a night!



Corporate Video -- A day in the life of an MUA...

After almost 20 years as a make-up artist (MUA) I have discovered that as much as I love to work on films and in television, corporate video is my bread and butter. San Diego seems to be a perfect spot to film anything and everything corporate. In San Diego there are extremely professional production facilities that can make shooting a corporate video a very pleasant experience. I still love film and T.V. and won't give up those jobs anytime soon, but a small corporate project is a nice break from the intensity of the other industries.

The photos below are from a shoot for Staylor-Made Communications for BAI Financial and shot at Ray Street Studios. Enjoy!
