Newsletter - January 29, 2005

Thank you for visiting my web site and allowing me to share my work with you. My goal is to continually create an interesting and informative window of my work and to allow visitors an opportunity to tour the exciting world of make-up special effects. I welcome your emails and comments and will try to respond as time permits.

Here we are at the beginning of 2005 with a ton of work ahead of us. 2004 started out slow but finished with a very large bang!

August saw the beginning of a very fruitfull year ahead with the aquistision of television series “CSI” (all Make-up Effects and bodies), “Medical Investigation” (occasional Make-up Effects), continuing work on “Navy:NCIS” (all heavy Make-up Effects and bodies), “House” (internal body shots), “Dr. Vegas” (occasional Make-up Effects until it got canceled) and “Lost” (occasional bodies). We also had a great time working on “The George Lopez” Halloween show re-creating “The Munster” make-ups.

Film work last year included Make-up Effects on “Skeleton Key” (Make-up Effects), “Million Dollar Baby” (Supplying boxing eye prosthetics), “Meet The Fockers” (Ben Stiller’s Rusty Bridges prosthetic make-up), “Cassanova” (Oliver Platt fat body prosthetics and teeth), “Sky High” (Supplying all the Make-up Effects) and “Monster House” (Supplying all of the face and head casts for motion capture facial and head reflective dots).

Commercial work included Best Buy and Cingular Christmas commercials, a Direct TV commercial with aging make-ups to air this year and an Eclipse Gum commercial with a werewolf make-up.

“Wicked” the new huge broadway muscial is keeping us extremely busy and starting in March with a touring company.

2005 looks to be a great and prosperous year with the continuation of all our television series and a few new film projects. Hope everyone has a great year. 

Thanks
