The first week of November brings us to shooting another Artists In Action series for our favorite makeup company. Once again, we are going to the Tribeca Skyline Studios and setting up a four-camera shoot. The angle I took on this was to create an environment where the makeup artist gets to do what they do best and capture it with four cameras operated by some of the best indie film shooters in town. We have enlisted the talents of up-and-coming dps/filmmakers - Kai Leung, Julian King, Chris Teague and Bob Boothe. With the right environment and the right talent, all should run as smooth and with the best result as the last time we did this. I’m looking forward to it.

Another season has arrived. Last year’s Halloween Fantasticals video for M.A.C was such a success with their audience that we set out to make another one this year. Once again, I enlisted the musical talents of Omar Ajluni and went for a tribal score to match the sequential stills and frequent frames. M.A.C’s audience has fully embraced the piece and, hopefully, we inspired several to get their makeup kits out and have some fun this year.

M.A.C says: Spooky-kooky to ga-ga gorgeous, the top looks of Halloween are here as five M∙A∙C Senior Artists demonstrate how monstrously fun and devilishly doable our looks can be!
