Hi ALL !

So, again i've been quite busy with work ! Photoshoots, short films, photoshoots.....AND, last last thursday I got a phone call by my ex Teacher from makeup school...asking me if I was available for the next 2 weeks...Of course I said yes; it was for a film in the IATSE Union, so bigger than whatever i've done. Anyway he referred me to the lady in question that was looking for an assistant. That night I was crossing my fingers and then she called ! Told me the drill, the type of work i'D be doing, she basically needed someone strong in beauty makeup and also strong in prosthetics. She trusted my teachers reference so she gave me the chance, I got to start the next day!

That night...I looked up what the title of the film was ( I was starting in the middle of the shoot, due to some other complication with the previous assistant, whatever.) and.....when I saw the lead of the film, I... literally, freaked out with joy. The lead is a main character in my favourite show... Trueblood !

So for the past week now, I've been working with Stephen Moyer ! I get to babysit my Key's work when she can't be on set, therefore I get to take care of the leads! I also got to meet his wife this week, Anna Paquin ! She was super sweet and....seriously, everybody is great. Cast and Crew is wonderful and I feel so so fricking lucky.

I mean, what are the odds of me working/meeting people from my #1 fav show? Anyway.... I'm super happy! =D

The movie is called The Barrens and it's a horror !

So...yep i've been really busy....and really happy !

I also ...have found :heart: again !...yes yes... a fellow colleague from the previous movie I did =P And he's awesome ! =) I'll have to post a tattoo cover I did on him ! =)

I hope all is well !!! Lots and lots of love !


p.s. Anybody know of a good point and shoot camera ?! That takes nice quality pics ?!

Well hello hello Handsome! ^^ It's good to hear from you ! It's funny that I chose this day to creep my page and to see this wonderful message from you !

It's going really well (i think!) I'm really happy in what I have achieved in the past year or so...2 movies that will be coming out this year...and I'm currently working on a TV show called Paranormal Witness, so I do feel blessed! =D

How have you been ? =)

Ha! I didnīt expect to get reply anytime soon and look what happened =)
I canīt wait to see those movies, youīre absolutely the best! Outstanding talent, hard work, good looks =) You have everything =)

I kinda started to take my job (as a graphic designer) seriously, so it finally pleases me too... I already have one controversial ad campaign going, and there are gonna be troubles (maybe lawsuit), so Iīm pretty happy about it =)
(and... ahem... Iīm getting divorced)

I was at an information evening tonight for a course in Cinemagraphic makeup I'm doing next year (so excited!) and I was looking through a magazine and I saw a picture of the Medusa character work you did for IMATS in it, and I was like hey Monik Walmsley did that!
And it was really cool that it was in there. Just thought you should know ^_^
