Christine here with an Update!

Hello Beauties!

Well its definitely been awhile since i last blogged! So sorry about that, its been kinda hetic for me these

past couple of weeks, but tthought i would update you all on what i've been up to! First, i have been

applying to lots of makeup stores like Sephora, MAC, Bare Escentuals, and then Benefit. I'm currently

waiting to hear back from them!

Secondly been focusing on my film which is alot of harder than i thought it was going to be!

Scheduling 9-10 people at once is rather difficult but i should be pro at this by now after scheduling 17-

20 people for when i did Alice. And one of my actors is SAG meaning he's super legit so lots of

paperwork to sign and get clearance for him to do the project..Its fun but kinda stressful.. I am very

excited to start the actual filming process soon! This is my second film and i love doing these side

projects for myself because well im not in school anymore so its something to keep me entertained

while looking for fulltime work.

I also had a lovely tea party/ film meeting this past weekend which turned out really well. Everyone

showed up except one who couldn't make it. It was in my backyard, i set up two tables with a lace

tablecloth and a flower one. I made so much food like tea sandwiches: Cucumber, Tomato

Basil,Mozarella and Walnut Parsley. I also made Chocolate Chip  and Lemon Poppyseed Scones, Petit

fours, Cupcakes personalized for their character and Emily part of my crew made Lemon Cupcakes. So

yeah alot of food....

Here's a picture the lovely Rhona took of some of the girls at the party, at this point reading thru the

script.

I cant wait to see everyone all done up in costume and hair and makeup, its going to be so much fun!

For my next blog topic i will be talking about COSMETOLOGY SCHOOLS! If you know of a great

one let me know in the comments! I'm still deciding where i want to go!

Stay pretty my friends!


Cheers,
Christine

Films, Faeries and Fun?

Hello Beauties! 

How ya'll doing?! Today I want to talk to ya'll about this small independent film I'm working on, starting production in May. Its about one of my favorite things in the entire world.... Disney Fairies!!! I honestly don't know where this obssession started and yes i know its kind of silly to be obssessing over Disney Fairies at my age but i just adored the movies they created about Tinkerbell and her friends and since i am a HUGE Peter Pan fan i had to check them out! I also started this thing called the Disney Directing Project about two years ago where i take scenes from my favorite Disney films and create live action little films for pure fun and to build up my film reel. I started with Sleeping Beauty and only had five actors, a small handheld camera and cold weather but managed to make a decent film. Now with this film i have more actors, better equipment, and time! Im really excited to get this project off the ground and running! 

Meet my beautiful Cast! 

Jessica Ellithorpe as Tinkerbell 

Rhona McFayden as Sassy Rosetta the Garden Fairy 

Andrea Furtado as Iridessa the Light Fairy

Amanda Vogel as Silvermist the Water Fairy 

Michelle Elrick as Fawn the Animal Fairy 

Haley Barta as Periwinkle the Winter Fairy 

and Sean Gilvary as Terrence the Dust Keeper Fairy 

I love all of them dearly, we were all part of Sugar together and since we all live relatively close to each other so it worked out perfectly! 

Stay tuned for more Fairy News from me! 

oh annnddd

Stay pretty my friends!

I'm done with my show what now?

Hello Beauties!

So i just finished an amazing run of the musical "Sugar" based on the movie Some Like It Hot starring Marilyn Monroe. I played one of the anatagonists Sweet Sue. She most definitely was not sweet but she was definitely a fun character to play! She was very feisty, and yes mean. I'm just glad that i dont have to yell "Bienstock" anymore or just yell in general.

Me with my band Sweet Sue and Her Society Syncopaters!

I will miss this show so much, i've loved getting to know everyone and bond with so many people! Ya'll are a crazy bunch! Now i can focus on work, having my nights back and getting rid of my double chin.....oooh boy

Me being a badass with a gun....well a wooden gun in this case

Now that this show has come to a close, i have been asking around for more makeup/hair work for any of the shows for the production company and now i'm waiting to hear back from Sephora! Only time will tell! I'm also crossing my fingers for work for the show 9 to 5 and possibly Jesus Christ Superstar!

Now there's this thing called Post Show Depression where most actors become depressed and cry about how much they miss the show the day after it closes. I did not go through that with this show, i loved being apart of this show very much but it really didnt hit me like Spring Awakening did. There are really only a handful of shows that can do that to a person and when they do it really hits hard.

Hope you enjoyed my blog and stay tuned for more!

Stay pretty my friends!

Cheers,
Christine
