It has been a while! Sorry it took me so long but it's been a very busy few weeks. So a few weeks ago, late on a Saturday night, I got a call to work on a feature film called Sexy Evil Genius. of course I jumped at the opportunity. I called my work told them I wouldn't be coming in and started early Monday morning.
I arrived early to CBS Radford studios to begin my journey. As I walked into the beauty trailer to meet the people I was working with I was put right to work. Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica, 24) was sitting in the chair. As I am getting settled and handed scripts I am thrown into the chaos of film. As the morning continues I spend some time watching my boss do his thing so I can see what I'll have to do throughout the week. I am introduced to the cast as they enter Billy Baldwin (Backdraft, Parenthood TV, etc...), Seth Green (Robot Chicken, Can't hardly Wait, Family Guy etc...), Michelle Trachtenberg (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gossip Girl, Euro Trip, Robot Chicken, etc...) and Harold Perrineau (OZ, Lost, Romeo and Juliet, etc...). All were very nice. They sat in the trailer cracking jokes, making fun of each other, goofing off. It was like a big family. As the week continued I started working closely with Billy and some of the background and later in the week on the rest of the cast. I was on set doing touch ups and when my boss wasn't available I was creating styles and putting the hair together. By the end of the first week I was asked to stay on through the end of the shoot. Of course I agreed (and lost my job at the salon because of it) but how do you turn down an opportunity like that? The days got longer and loner with start times between 6 and 9 am and we finished between 12am and 2 am. One day Seth and some of the cast brought us a Sexy Evil Genius ice cream truck which was amazing!
Come Monday (Seth's last day) we were all tired and loopy, behind schedule and lots to do. Since we had Seth for just one last day the day became longer and longer. I ended up having to paint his nails at 11:30 pm, washing his hair at 12:30 am and moving to the next location.... the BIG sex scene. By 1:30 am we were filming 2 different sex scenes, out of it, tired and laughing our asses off due to the major awkwardness and lack of sleep.
The following few days were very hectic due to being on location. Anthony Michael Hall (Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, Dead Zone, etc...) was brought in the last week of filming which was awesome.
I am unable to give too much info on confidentiality rules as much as I would LOVE to share so much with you all. I will be able to at a later date! I booked 2 gigs last week which will come in another blog but for now enjoy some pictures below! :)
