Shallow? Dec 17 06 05:51 am Link I'd answer this but you're not my type. Chris ::rev Dec 17 06 05:54 am Link More like, replaceable. Mortal. Very attuned to our fleshy origins.

Its seeing all these beautiful people in one place, gets intimidating at times.. Dec 17 06 06:28 am Link Quite the contrary. Though the genre I work in [as well as my method] mean that I'm a "niche" artist, the responses that I get from people about how my images affect them makes me feel more empowered and respected than anything else I do. Not to mention the creative release and intense personal interactions I experience while I do the work itself.

Dec 17 06 09:30 am Link No. I'm not in "this industry." -D Dec 17 06 10:28 am Link I remember working on set for a film and I helped the make-up artist lug a giant suitcase to her car. she thought it was the most amazing thing ever. Regaurdless if she was the make-up artist or not, she's still a lady. During casting calls, the actors/actressess usually assumed that i was either the condescending type, or that I might have weird intentions. It was kinda scary, because it was such a telling sign of what they're used to. On the other hand, there were plenty of ass-kissers and suck-ups. So you can't always take a human gesture seriously. I'd suggest you find someone who has taken the same path, but with 10-15 years more experience. then ask yourself if they have the lifestyle that you want. Dec 17 06 12:49 pm Link |
