At my job at Global Awakening, my position was usually to make everyone else's job in the video production department easier. I organized the video as it came in, I backed up all the content on LTO tapes, and I would find clips whenever someone needed something. My job included so many various small tasks that I sometimes forget what they all were! I helped with video transcription, I made MP3s, I created downloadable links. But one of my favorite things was when I helped out with shoots.
I helped edit the script for this video and entered the voice over into an iPad teleprompter. I also held a boom mic for some of the tracking shots (and I must have done a good job since you can't see me running out of the way!)
I worked at Global Awakening as a video content organizer from January 2013 until April 2014. I only quit because I recently got married and moved to Maryland. I commuted for one month, but it was simply too much to drive 100 miles per day! I am hoping I can find a job soon that puts my passion for ministry and media together again.

"Palace" - Undergrad Student Film, Supervising Makeup Artist
Last January, I was asked if I would be the makeup artist for a student film. I was very excited to work with them - but then I got a full-time job offer. However, I stayed with the film as a supervising makeup artist. I helped find a replacement and I trained her in naturalistic makeup artistry basics for high definition video. I was also able to work on the film when they shot crowd scenes. And I'm glad I did!
All of the extras for this film were period. There's a montage sequence that features large crowds from the 1940s and 1960s, so I was happy to help, since this required a lot of work and hands on deck! Luckily, I had heavily researched both periods with other film and theater projects (remember We Need To Talk?)
Below is the trailer. Palace was directed by a friend and former classmate of mine, Rolando Vega. He has since graduated and returned to work on another student film. One of my favorite thing about Messiah's film program is how graduates and friends stick together and help each other out, so I was glad I got to be a part of this project.

Geisteskrankheit - Makeup Artist
I have absolutely no clue how to pronounce this, but this was Sarah Stevenson's take on German expressionism. I did the makeup in November 2012.

Geisteskrankheit is German for "mental illness," by the way.

Driver Safety - Makeup Artist
This was a 3-day shoot for a driver safety video for an insurance company through Rutan Productions. I did the makeup - and near the end, I did a little stunt as well. I almost got hit by a dump truck backing up on a bike... and I almost really got hit for the first take! But I was alright, and Scott Mundy (the awesome director) had me do it five more times. Scary!

"Over-accessorized!" Sprint regional commercial - Makeup Artist
At my internship at Rutan productions, I worked on many commercials, but this was the second corporate commercial on which I have worked as a makeup artist. The first commercial I did was mostly naturalistic makeup, but this was more beauty/fashion. This commercial is airing regionally right now until the accessory sale ends. Directed by The Brothers Olsen.
