In September 2012 I did a shoot with Ultimate Psycho in Lyon. They dressed me up like a black and pink kitty cat. I was wearing a full latex outfit including a nice corset, transparent ballet heels, and a double hood. I even had some little cat toys.. :)
On my website as well as on my facebook page, I always just upload 1 or 2 pictures per shooting set. I like to just give an overview and not have albums full of similar photos.
But it's a shame that many photos stay unseen this way...so I decided to post a first series here.
Maybe some of you have already seen those pictures, since this set is also online on Ultimate Psycho's website, right *here* ;-)
Last July I had my very first acting experience. I was asked to be part of the newest videoclip of French metal band Lokurah, directed by Julien Metternich.
I wasn't sure in the beginning because I didn't have any experience at all. Also, I'm quite shy and acting is still something completely different than doing a photoshoot. But I accepted and in the end it was a very nice and interesting experience. I wouldn't hesistate so long anymore in case someone would ask me again now :)
My boyfriend was also asked to act in this clip, and played the main role. It helped a lot that he was there I guess. Mental support and so :) And of course it's nice to do something like this together.
We started at 8 a.m. in the morning and finished around 10 p.m. in the evening...quite a long day!
Maybe I should tell you the story of the videoclip first...
The story: A former topmodel gets disfigured in a car crash. She gets so envious of the beauty of young girls that she lures aspiring models to her house, under the false condition of a photoshooting. Once a girl arrives, she kills them by suffocating with a plastic foil.
In the videoclip you can see how there is a crime scene photographer who takes pictures of all the bodies and starts to be haunted in a way (he gets some kind of déjà vu feelings and images of the murders). In the end he discovers the place where the killer hides. It's a place full of burned and damaged pictures of the girls, creepy barbie dolls and masks. The killer then tries to kill the photographer too, but fails, and she gets killed herself. Ironically also being suffocated with a plastic foil.
As you maybe already may have guessed, I was the killer. :)
So I needed an "ugly" special effects make-up to make my face look damaged.
Here are some pictures of the preparation:
(The make-up was done by Laetitia Laverdure)
After the make-up was finished, I put on my black Fantastic Rubber catsuit in combination with long black latex gloves.
Then we were ready to start shooting my video part.
(My part is in the last minute of the video)
Here's the final result:
And here are some screenshots from the video to finish... :)
On September 27th I did a shooting with Ultimate Psycho. It's a team of Yann and Coco, where Yann is the photographer and Coco defines the athmosphere and does the postproduction afterwards (and so much more).
They already told me before that they wanted to do the shooting with a cat style outfit, and I was very excited about that.
When they arrived they brought the outfit but also some "accessories"...
My make-up was already done so we immediately started to dress.
I wore pink high stockings, a black short pants on top of the stockings, a pink top with a black corset on top, long black gloves, cute black&white mittens with cat paws, a black hood, and an open hood with cat ears on top of the first hood. I just love when I wear multiple layers of latex.
I only had to finish my lipstick after putting on the (first) hood because otherwise it would have been quite a mess on my face, haha.
After this we started to shoot. It was a great shoot and I really enjoyed.
Here's a little preview. (Some of you may have already seen it on my facebook page)
Pictures will follow soon and I can't wait to see them and show them to you!
In the meantime I can already show you a backstage video. It's my first real backstage video I think.
Do you like this and would you like to see more backstage videos in the future? Please comment and let me know :)
