Velvet's Tribute to the Oscars (Picture Heavy!!)

Velvet's Tribute to the Oscars is on its 2nd year. If you remember Diether Ocampo being turned into the Godfather last year, that was it! Part of our Makeup Class are OJT's and apprenticeships under one of the best Makeup Artists in the country, RB Chanco. We got to go to various editorial, billboard and other ad campaign shoots. One of the best ojt's ive had was the Oscars shoot. It was so much fun seeing everything all come together. I feel very honored and proud to have been somewhat a part of it.

After a few weeks, we went to Velvet's Event "Tribute to the Oscars" to support our Wonderful and Super beautiful Makeup Mentor, RB Chanco. Rb did the Makeup for Casablanca, West Side Story and Pulp Fiction. Casablanca won first prize in the competition! She also won Best Makeup/ Best Transformation for Casblanca. And Zanjoe won the bagay na bagay award (In Character Award) for Pulp Fiction!

This one is my favorite! =)
