This is a rough demo of some of my work that I used for an interview just recently. It isn't too drastic, technically appealing, or other-worldly, but I thought that it might be nice for some folks to look at who don't want to sift through all of my material.
As always, please let me know what you think.

This is/was Jessica Brewer's audition tape for the SyFy show "Face Off". They never got back to her, and so I'm posting this up so that 1) you guys can check it out and laugh with us and 2) maybe someone else in need of make-up will see this.
Big ups to Colin MacDougall for setting it all up and assisting with shooting.
