.........and here's a little preview of what I've been doing for the past two and a half months.........Welcome to Rooster Teeth's "Day 5".

May 14, 2016

Long time, no blog. Sorry, folks. I have been crazy busy working as Department Head Makeup on Rooster Teeth's widely anticipated Day 5 digital tv series. Much like the Crunch Time mini-series that I did at the end of 2015, this show will be on Rooster Teeth's digital tv channel and be premiering June 19th (so soon! Eek!). 

It's a post-apocalyptic set show about a sort of plague or virus (we haven't found out yet ourselves) that has come down upon the almost the entire population of the world......basically, if you fall asleep you die. This show follows around a group of survivors rushing to find the cause and the cure while time slips away. 

I'm pretty excited for this show and extremely proud of the great work that we have all done. The show itself seems pretty epic just judging from what's happening during production, and we have some wonderful actors and crew to work with. My makeup is really stylized, and it's been odd to make our actors look more distressed and tired vs. beautiful and fresh faced. All in all, it's been a great experience. 

So, with that said, enjoy the teaser trailer that I've posted along with this blog, and, on a side note, check out some of my artwork that I've done on set via my instagram @taracooperartist .
