Picturing: Makeup Artist and Film School Magic



Makeup artist Christina does her best to try to de-ghoul me. There's a lot of gruesome raw material there and sometimes it takes more than a few brushstrokes to bring one back to "camera-ready".

Kidding.

I was acting in a schoolmate's experimental film and there was a lot of raw material there to work with to take me to "full ghoul"... a few brushstrokes was all it took to get me camera-ready.

It was a fine film. Bob submitted it to a festival, but I don't know what became of it. "The title of which I've long forgotten" was shot with our college's best video camera, the Hitachi Z31.


Postscript: I remember that shirt I'm wearing. I think I still have it. Kidding... I'm not that bad.
