Who wants to hire an "awesome" makeup artist??????????? Tell me NOW!!?

Question

I graduated from the makeup artist college with the longest running names in show biz and the best teachers, it was truly amazing experience. I pay extremely close attention to detail and my client as a whole, (skin care needs, whatever makes them feel good, look good...whatever they need help with) Im not bragging but I know I have a lot of talent and skill and top of the line knowledge. Does this mean nothing to anybody because I dont have all the experience that THEY want??? Im feeling totally frustrated and am at the end of my rope with people in general, feeling aggression towards the world. Who WILL hire me, where do I go?? Somethings GOT to happen NOW!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

I don't know what aspect of makeup artist you are interested in, but there are a lot of independent filmmakers and TV producers who need make-up artists, if you have an interest in film. If you live in a large city (NY, LA, Chi., SF, Miami, there might be a lot of activity. I don't know if it requires special techniques but it seems an interesting field to me; not too many people in film focus on makeup. You can find out about indie film production through various magazines and newspapers; as your librarian: there's the Hollywood reporter, Independent film, a whole lot of them. I'd even volunteer my services for some student film program at a university. You could get a make-up credit . I met a bunch of these 'behind the scenes' people who worked for the TV show Law & Order, and they didn't seem to have much trouble once they got their foot in the door.
