Bugalicious Fun in Buffalo! So yesterday I had a blast doing makeup and helping out with production for a 48 hour film fest challenge in Buffalo, New York ! It's been awhile since I was involved in a production that I was not heading up, and it was fun getting down and dirty making up a corpse, helping create in-camera insect tricks, and meeting up with a great group of actors and filmmakers in Buffalo, New York.  Among my contributions to the film were making up poor Leo like a corpse covered in spiders and coming up with the idea to use edible bugs. Fun times! Anyway, the finished film will be shown tomorrow night at the Screening Room and who knows where else!  DOWNLOAD SCI-FI THRILLER NOVEL LIBERTARIA: GENESIS TODAY 99 CENTS Smiles!
