About me
An experienced Make-up Artist having previously worked on three low budget horror feature films, numerous horror shorts, plus period & romantic genre short films. I have created zombies, prosthetics, wounds etc. using liquid latex, silicone and fake blood with the aid of cream & alcohol based make-up to blend in the pieces to appear realistic, such as cuts, grazes casualty/horror SFX and aging make-up to create realistic looking effects along with other moulds for repeat pieces to speed the process and also for continuity. The use of a pump/compressor to simulate arterial blood loss in wounds. A regular requirement was working to tight deadlines with multiple extras.Along with SFX make-up I have also worked on short films and music videos where I have designed & applied make-up and hair for these small productions working with both male and female actors. Producing designs such as: male & female 1940 & 50's era, a geeky male, sophisticated female, tattoos, aging make-up for a male, etc. I have also worked with children on productions and on Youth projects creating and facilitating makeup effects for their required script, along with facilitating SFX make-up workshops. I can communicate well at all levels, which I feel is important, to obtain the best results for both actor and director.
I have my own make-up and SFX make-up kit which means I am ready to go. I can produce designs tailor made for your productions working to the Art Director/Director's & script requirements.
I have my own transport, I live in the East Midlands and I am willing to travel.
