      I don't know what's confusing the people in the replies. What's there to elaborate and share? They literally told you she won the NYX face awards one year. Get googling.
      But seriously, she has this tendency to minimize her work. It's becoming grating. She can literally sew and make almost anything and she still can't say it's amazing. I paused at the bit where she said she's a dollar store version of people on Face Off. Women do this kind of shxt all the time and I can't stand it anymore.

Then smush the two together the make the negative mold. Thankfully the main two directors I work for usually give me decent time and money. But I have worked for a few that want you to take a 2-3 week process and cut it down to a matter of days and with less then half the budget and supplies.

    Hot tip for someone who was without an iron and desperately needed one: heating a flat bottomed pot or pan with a bit of water in it and then using it as you would an iron. Works surprisingly well! Of course, only really works if you have a gas range or a gloriously large fireplace haha

The dress/costuming was great, don't get me wrong, but that one quick aside was one of the most quietly powerful sequences i've seen in a create/reveal video, and i think it's going to affect a lot of people in a positive way.

    Having somewhat followed your whole ordeal on Instagram, it took no more than "Welcome to the *actual* 1800s" to have me in stitches - it definitely can't have been fun to live through, but rest assured your cursed week made for one hell of an entertaining video (also the thunder rumble on the day three title card was *chef's kiss*)

      That would have been a good comeback but "none ya business" worked well, too! After all, it must be difficult to sling a good come-back while dancing through the cemetery in a puffy-sleeve femininized version of Jack Skeffington while directing your husband as he films you.
      A fantastic costume, you'll be the toast of all Halloween parties!
