In one of my past lives I was a makeup FX artist. This comes in handy working on my own productions and occasionally working with friends on theirs.This weekend I'll be lending a bloody hand to Trash Film Orgy's shoot of Planet of the Vampire Women. I don't really have a clear idea what gore fx I'll be doing, but I have quite a few appliances that could be put to good use.On a somewhat related note: I've recently switched from smoking cigarettes while I film to smoking an e-cigarette. This is not only for health reasons but also so I don't smell like cigarettes. Yuck. The cool part about this is I can work on the makeup fx while smoking, and it won't bother the actors (it's water vapor), or me.I was never a full time smoker, it was always just while drinking (in social situations) or while filming (where I'd smoke like a chimney). I've also switched from energy drinks to energy shots, but that's another story.
