Live Aids: Circusmaryosep

Hey everyone! Busy busy week, so I havent been able to update this. Went on a couple of shoots and barely got sleep, it was crazy! To top it off, we were sent to UP Diliman to do the makeup for Live Aids 2010: Circusmaryosep. I was there for the first show until the very last one. Such an honor to have been given a chance to be part of it! One of the best 3 days of my life LOL

I didnt get to take a lot of pictures cause it was a little crazy, didnt have much time cause as soon as I started cleaning my area, another performer would come and ask if I can help with his/her makeup. But it was very rewarding to see them all up on stage when I finally got to watch. Im definately going back for Live Aids 2011!

Only for Live Aids have I ever knelt on concrete floors while doing makeup! haha My back felt like giving out and I felt like I was coming down with a flu, but I forced myself to be there and it was all so worth it! I was there doing makeup for Fridays 3pm and 7pm, Saturdays 3pm and 7pm and Sundays 3pm and 7pm shows! No regret, I already miss it!


I'll be posting about the other shoots some other time, since I cant post them at the moment hehe. But here are a few pictures from Live Aids: Circusmaryosep and the Perfomers I did makeup on.

My first time to do Stage Makeup, very different since it
calls for heavier foundation and a little exaggeration







Jess and her many characters =)




LOL



with Deo as Abnoynoy










with Jess as Mommy D
(laughing at herself, she wanted really white foundation
and super exaggerated wrinkles LOL)

Things I learned:
- Stage Makeup is very different from the usual makeup
- Time is Gold! haha youre lucky if you have 30 minutes to do a performers makeup. You need to be fast and efficient
- It pays to be nice, you gain new friends! =)
- You need to be able to work in any condition (bawal ang choosy haha)
- Make the most out of the experience and HAVE FUN!
