CMS works with Miss California and Miss Califronia Teen 2011!

Each year Cinema Makeup School has the opportunity to send students and graduates to assist in the Miss California and Miss California Teen pageant held every autumn.  This past weekend, November 21st, 2010, CMS sent over 30 makeup artists and hair stylists to help glam up the Beauty Queens.
Current student Ramon Blanco was one lucky guy when he realized which contestants he had been paired with,  "I was able to work with BOTH the Miss and Miss Teen Winners!... It was wonderful."
Students and Graduates loaded up their cars and traveled east to the exclusive Palms Springs area for the big day. The CMS crew had just a few hours to make up 80+ contestants for the main portion of the pageant, and later had to be present for touch ups and hair changes. "The director came and told us how thankful he was for our help... how appreciative he was... that was really nice of him, it was a really great experience." said current student Krystal George of her time there.
All the students agreed that overall it was a great event. "It was well organized and a good working environment." Student Jyll King said, with student Alicia Mizrahi chimming in, "... and the buffet was great too!".
Cinema is always proud to have their students represent such a widely known and well respected organization, and we know there will be many more opportunities to come. Of the experience, Ramon later said, "... to have the entire room filled with current and former CMS students, I would do this again year after year."

CMS Grads work on The Pee Wee Herman Show!

Tuesday Corren applies makeup to Jambi!
This past January and early February was a great time for CMS graduates Tuesday Corren (FTV '09) and Marissa Williams (Master '09) as they got to do makeup on the new stage version of The Pee Wee Herman Show @ Club Nokia w/ 3 time Oscar Winner MUA Ve Neill! The two interviewed w/ Ve Neill (Department Head) and Cristina Waltz (Key Makeup Artist) and landed the gig against 14 other MUA's that were up for the job as well. Ve Neill, who worked on the original TV show "Pee Wee's Playhouse," happily created the makeup designs for the show, and left the rest in the hands of our CMS MUA's  (along with two other MUA's) to apply makeup on Jambi, Ms. Yvonne, and other characters like Cowboy Curtis, Mailman Mike, Sergio, King of Cartoons, and Fireman Fineous. As of now, the show is being taken on the road to New York City to make it's debut premiere at The Stephen Sondheim Theatre for 6 weeks! Whether Tuesday and Marissa venture to the Big Apple or not, they both agree that their time in LA with the Playhouse gang was nothing but "FUN!!!"

Monsterpalooza 2010

Master Sculptor Lee Joyner explains his sculpting techniques with an interested special effects artist.  
Disgusting, disturbing, and dreadful, are nothing but compliments coming from attendees at this years 2nd annual Monsterpalooza event! As the place was packed from wall to wall with monster lovers, creators, and costars of the films they once screamed in, The Marriott Burbank Convention Center was the place to be from April 9th - 11th if you are a fan of everything creepy. While some fans even dressed as their old favorites like Frankenstein, Freddie, and Jason, others played paparazzi to the guest speakers, ( like Barney Burman,The Chiodo Brothers, Howard Berger), monstrous displays of merchandise, and of course clay-tastic creations. Cinema Makeup School was definitely a snap shot hot spot!
With Director of Admissions & Master sculptor Lee Joyner working on a few of his unique creature designs, student Miranda Jory sculpted away on her full body Dragon creature design and Graduate Garret Christensen also kept the clay moving as he created a gangly vulture! The sculpting at the booth seemed to generate a lot of talk and interest in the school as well as the creature maquette class, as even a few big names in the makeup Industry like Jordu Shell, and Ve Neill, came by to check out the students work! Graduates Garret Christensen and Emily Nakasone also participated in Cinema Makeup School's awesome blood demo with MUA Instructor Rallis Kahn. It truly was a gory hit and in the end the convention had great focus on the monsters and the people who made them.
