Oh La La!


Hello one and all,
Have you ever dreamt about a crazy fantasy job that just seems so unrealistic yet fun? Well recently I been pining to become a prop master. I don't know what it is but to me there is something about placing material items in such a way that they reveal the true self. Well maybe not to that extent but props in my opinion help provide background for the character. Wow I am sounding prolific and that is not like me! Whenever I watch a film, I always pay attention to the background, whether it is the set, props, costumes or even makeup. All of these elements help with character progression and give insight into their minds. Well anywho, out of boredom, I began playing around in my room with items that I have collected over the years. I enjoy placing them and working on a theme such as the Audrey Hepurn one seen below. Speaking of Audrey, what a wonderful actress! A classic gal of poise and grace and if you haven't seen Funny Face, go rent it now! This movie based in Paris follows a beatnik who gets trapped in the world of Paris fashion. With dancing by Fred Astaire and assistance by none other than Richard Avedon, this is a movie worth seeing for it's cinematography alone! Having left you with some food for thought, I am off.
With Love,
Jenny

P.S. I am starting to clear out my iPhoto Library making room for new photographs so look out!
