I just spent the past few days working an entirely different day job- as a bird goddess.
In a life-size nest, built by Dylan!
My friends in the band Lasher Keen teamed up with Bay Area filmmaker Lara Miranda to create a music video for their song "Rainmaker", and they gathered their friends to play all of the characters:
(yup, that's a fog machine- essential!)
Getting into full costume with hair and makeup (including body paint) took many hours each day:
Lara applies some finishing touches to my face.
Even fully made up, you still have to eat:
Here is Bluebird, playing the Moon Goddess, hanging out and waiting for her scene (the desert-like shots were done in an old mining area):
Dylan trying out his costume- no paparazzi!:
Sarai as the Horse Goddess (on her own Clydesdale horse!):
Robert as the pyromaniac Fire Demon:
Lara on set:
Mugging, as usual, with Bluebird and Emily (one of the Clay Goddesses- this brave girl spent the entire day covered in clay!):
My wonderful headpiece and costume were made by Bluebird:
What an awesome time, and what a video this is going to be! Holy moly! It's going to take a while before we see the finished product, but meanwhile, you can enjoy some of Lara's other work, like this wonderful Faun Fables videos:
