Power of Makeup NYX Face Awards entry for the 2018 Top 30 challenge.

The inspiration for the video was expression thru makeup allowing me to overcome my anxieties. Using makeup as a powerful platform to connect and speak to others.

In the intro the anxiety character lurked within the corners of my brain. Then becomes enticed by a lonely makeup palette.  The palette is a gateway for the colorful warrior character. In the narrative I used stop motion to show anxiety being broken and destroyed from the inside.  Revealing a colorful character that was to embody power and imagination.  The rainbow scaled armor and color changing horns were to show endless possibilities.
