Wedding Season

Well we have moved into the warmer festive wedding season now. Its an amazing time with so many things to do and prepare for your special day. Sometimes it can seem a little overwhelming to find the appropriate person for the job. As a makeup artist I meet many professional people involved in ones special wedding day. I’ve been lucky enough to work with a very special friend on mine from time to time who happens to be an amazing wedding celebrant. Victoria Eustace is a truly inspiring to be around. Her warm and open personality is felt by all who are in her presence. If you happen to be unsure of where to look for a marriage celebrant  contact Victoria directly, go to www.allweneedislove.com.au.

Short Film – Fell

This is one of my short films I worked last year and it was shot in Tasmania, (in July- SO COLD). What an amazing experience and talented cast and crew. It was accepted  into Cannes Film festival 2014. There was a lot of planning that went into the makeup for the actors to create the most realistic look for the overall film. Dirt, bruising, beards and open wounds is the type of  makeup looks you will find in this film. Produced by Little Red Balloon Films and Troop Productions, I look forward to work with them again soon.

De Gloving

Hi everyone,

Opps! I think I need to see a doctor.

Im back again experimenting with again some sculpt gel A, B, C and some fake blood. I think the sculpt gel works well creating the tendons. Getting some ideas together for halloween. It seems far away but its not! Stay tuned for more looks.

Open Wound

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share a little of my makeup testing just recently. Thank you for my friend Rhys offering his foot for the afternoon. This was much easier than using my own for this one. I used a combination of sculpt gel A, B and C to create my dimensions and my fav, illustrator inks. Using methods of splattering, washes and intense colour this was my final piece…..

 

Stay tuned much more to come…..

Amanda
