Well shooting make up tests for my next feature this weekend. .My First shoot in Leeds as well.

Haven't quite got enough contacts up north yet , so shipping up most of the crew from london and the darker regions of the south west, and in true guerilla style the floor of my flat is becoming L'hotel Chance for eight lucky souls.

Studio I've got for the day at a bargain price , condsiderably lower than london

Also done quite well on the exchange rate and , whilst this is mainly focusing on make up have managed to bag quite a few props and costume pieces from the states , far cheaper than there uk counter parts.

Main reasons I'm doing make up tests ?

Well two of our lead characters make ups are extremly complicated , so one as a producer I want to find out how long they will take. Two , they look great on paper but will they fair well in the camera ....

Also doing a lot of prosthetics , which I hope are going to be a key selling point , want to get them and the techniques involved up to super standard...

Finally I'm planning to shoot in eastern europe , iam working on a tome of a production folder before hand , so I don't get stuck in translation

You obviously need a Panasonic Toughbook to get back in touch with your masculine side. Pity those things don't run OS X.
