Latex Loving Lady
You know, I could bore you with more of the "waiting for special effects/sound/ADR/whatever" spiel, but I won't. Instead, I'll just give a quick update, then move on. The final effects are trickling in as fast as the weather in our artist's area of the country will allow. The sound will be finished as soon as we get the last of the ADR (looping) recorded, and the color correction will happen about the same time as the ADR.
We're looking at the end of the month. Dear God, I hope it's no longer than that.
Alrighty, now that that's out of the way, on to more fun stuff! After spending most of last summer covered in greasepaint and liquid latex, while trying to cover other people in greasepaint and liquid latex, I've developed a bit of a fascination with effects makeup. Our designer, Jessica, worked absolute magic with our store-bought prosthetics and teeny budget. I sat in on every workshop she put on for our actors, and was positively amazed at the transformations she could bring about. Now, I fully admit that I'm not great at effects makeup. I can apply a mask, latex down edges, and do simple painting and touch-ups, but that's as far as it goes. However, I adore watching real artists at work.
So, imagine my excitement at SyFy's new show, Face Off. No, it's not a remake of the Nicholas Cage/John Travolta movie
