Flexxi Van Bodypainting Video

This is an update to a behind the scenes post called Behind the Scenes: Alana Carroll Bodypainting. Possibly the funniest/weirdest concept that I have worked on in a long time, this is the video from that day.

The behind the scenes photos that I posted have had a huge presence over the internet. The last post was picked up by the pop culture website Oddee.

I had a really interesting project to do the other week, for a Flexxi Van online advert, bodypainting a town onto the body of Alana Carroll (Irish Sun Models Competition Runner-up).

Behind the Scenes: Fatcheese bodypainting with Nadia Forde

Today I was lucky enough to be outside in the sunshine for a Photocall for fatcheese.ie. Myself and my assistant Stefania turned Nadia Forde into a stylised version of cheese. Why turn a gorgeous Irish Model into cheese you say? :-)

It is all to announce that they have given over €250,000 cash back to @FatcheeseIE members since they started!!

Here are some behind the scenes snaps:

BT Young Scientist 2012 – Photocall

Here are some shots from a recent PR Photoshoot that I did for the BT Young Scientist Competition 2012. I got to paint the girls like half bionic people. Bodypainting is my favourite kind of work and I wish I could do this every day :-)

PR Bodypainting: Sony Ericsson

On Facebook recently, I already talked about the Photo Call I did recently for Sony Ericsson which went out in the Evening Herald and The Metro Newspapers.  I thought I would just share a little video. It is just an experiment really, thinking about getting into doing some videos for the blog in the future, so watch this space…

The models are: Vinny Gough, Eva Grasse and Georgia Salpa
