Film Makeup Artist

My work

My work on the short film SwanSong (2021) by director Nicky O'Callaghan and Peter Phelon, Was to create three natural makeup looks for the kids.And two aged makeup looks for the dad and step mother played by two actors under 20. I also had the task to create two realistic wombs.A knife womb and a cut from falling down on a rock.As the location was a lake and both actors would be in water these had to be waterproof and easy to touch up.

​

For my work on the film Partita (2023) by director Eric Fraad, I had the job of creating 3-4 different makeup looks on 13 people (2 actors, 3 singers, 5 dancers, 3 musicians). Which included natural makeup, creative 18th century makeup, creative party glam makeup and dreamy makeup. As well as touch ups.

​

In 2023 I also had the opportunity to work on the short film Donovons Orders by director Nicky O'Callaghan. My work was mainly special effects and squib.

Special effects:

Special effects makeup is where my journey with makeup began in 2015.

Im completely self taught when it comes to it and have been learning from Youtube videos and practicing on friends and family members. In 2021 my journey working on short films and small budget projects started.

​

For all projects and work in film I will require a copy of the script, list of any allergies the actors might have, head shots of all the main actors, and a list of any changes to the characters during the film (eg injuries, outfit changes...)  This is to make sure the makeup done fits the scenes and functions (eg having to be waterproof).
