While planning creative photo projects and trying to knock out some personal 2019 resolutions, I am trying to be consistent with blog posts and share more awesome moments from my career, as well as showcase amazing crew that I am fortunate to work with. And on that note, let’s kick ass in 2019! This year is going to be amazing, so excited to see what makeup and hair jobs I get to do this year! Let’s book already!
Last April, I worked on a commercial with Originator Studios for Blytzpay. A really cool app to easily pay your bills online. In this commercial I got to transform the lead singer, Corey of Croy and the Boys from a hipster-esque and overwhelmed bar owner into a rockin’ winning at life bar owner. You might also recognize the band members of Black Heart Saints, (who were also transformed) from a geek-like band into a rockin’ sax playing heavy metal band. I cannot begin to tell you how much fun I had on this job. From creating the characters with Derek to applying the makeup and hair changes. Watching the finished product makes me giggle still, it was so much fun. Love the crew at Originator Studios, always a pleasure to be trusted on commercials! It was released in November, and I am so proud to share!
