My Foray Into Production
How Being Proactive Changed My Movie Career
People often ask how I made the transition from Makeup Artist for motion pictures to the production side of things. My answer is this: While working as a Second Unit Makeup Artist on the film, The Chase (starring Charlie Sheen), I learned of another movie that was beginning to hire crew. After landing an appointment, I arrived at the production office to find two people, a woman and a man, in different parts of the office, engaged in separate, and intense, phone conversations. The woman motioned for me to have a seat. In less than a minute, another phone started ringing and, when I motioned that I could answer it, she gave me the go-ahead.

Removing Apathy: Helping the Homeless
The Homeless are People too!
There are many misconceptions and assumptions made by the public about the homeless. The stereotypes range from laziness, drug addicted, mentally ill and illiterate to the misnomer that they are people who just want hand-outs and prefer to take the easy way out by panhandling and begging.
According to Marilyn Fountain, Director of Communications for the Houston-based Star of Hope mission, “the prevalence of stereotyping has created a sense of apathy and resentment on the part of the public, particularly in a time when the financial realities of many families have changed for the worse.”
Would you help a homeless person if they asked you to?
Thank you.
