You worked so hard, under incredibly tight timescales, adapting to the fluid situation and your delivery was amazing especially in taking my script and interpreting my vision. Always on time and willing to stay until the job was done and the shoot packed up, I was very proud of the rapport that was built with all the cast and crew followed up by clear communication from the outset. You went above and beyond your remit, looking after our cast, assisting the Director of Photography, making drinks and taking invaluable continuity photographs as well as looking after other inexperienced crew members, meeting the cast members before the shoot to discuss looks and makeup tests, giving constructive feedback and mentoring trainee makeup artists on our big scene “crowd” days, who under your supervision was fantastic – Your knowledge, especially local, experience and extensive research to create and develop our film’s look making the film totally in keeping with the period in which the film was set.
