  Collaboration with director and film studentI had the pleasure to meet a Canadian director Eric Chausse and work on his short film as a SFX and Makeup Artist. After a long preparation we finally managed to shoot his short film, The Date. I had a fantastic experience working with a small, but talented crew and can't wait our next project, a fairy-themed photoshoot! :)
