Make-up Artist / SFX - Melbourne

SFX make-up artist required to make small "alien" prop to be used in an independent short film.

This may sound like an odd question, but - why do you need a make-up artist to create a prop? Can or should people with props making/set making experience apply?

Due to the nature of the prop, the job is primarily suited for a special effects make-up artist or anyone interested in SFX effects, which is a broad enough term. I would prefer someone with make-up experience over prop building experience. Are you interested in applying Na? I must admit I can always rely on you to draw any advertisement on this site into question. You thought I'd missed the location last time I posted an ad until I pointed out it was in the heading, I live in the hope I may one day please you my dear ;) And thank-you to everyone who applied, but the position has been filled.

Ah, pleasing me is much easier than you think. It's more often than not that I miss important information in the rush. Normally I might be interested in the role, but at the moment I'm swamped with projects to work on. Perhaps another time... And just so you know - I was just curious as to why the choice between props maker and makeup artist. It's an unusual choice; though not a wrong one of course. Coming from a puppetry point of view, there are a lot of prop makers out there who can do special effects - think of all the sci fi shows out there! So that's why I asked.
