Treating Talent

I was once asked by a fellow MU artist why I got so much work and she didn't.....I was not frank with her when I told her I did not know......I should've told her the truth, that perhaps it was because of how rude she always was with the talent that sat in her chair. I have always taken pride in the fact that I respect what the actor/model is doing. I am the first person they deal with in production in the morning. My attitude towards them sets the mood for their whole day. I respect their job. They have to not only look good, but also act like if they feel good. The majority of people are very nervous, regardless of how much experience they have. I feel part of my job is to make them as comfortable as possible. You get what you give!!

Beauty Is Not Skin Deep

It's funny the business I'm in, where beauty is so celebrated and chased, where your worth is usually measured based on your looks, and where the chase for the fountain of youth usually ends in a crash against the wall. I don't envy these beautiful women who put all their self-worth in the fragile basket of physical beauty. I've always wondered if some of these women knew how much their beauty would increase on the outside if they were beautiful in the inside as well. Would they take care of the inside as much as they do the outside? Work on the inside girls! That's where the fountain of youth really exists!
