From the funeral parlour to the international virtual parlour of sin (umm, my description of the biz).

Dude, is it a coincidence or do you always pick jobs that put you as close to HELL as possible.

LOL. That's rough. What does a naked dead body look like?
hahah, not sure...I wanted to be a monster makeup artist and work for Tom Savini or some big makeup FX company, so took an intern job doing funeral prep and stuff...was a pretty small town, so I got a lot of experiences. I loved making up the corpses for their funerals because I could be the guy who helped these poor families see their loved ones one last time and keep it almost as a pleasant memory (I always got as many pictures of the deceased as I could find and worked closely with the families to make sure that during that last veiwing, they got to see their loved one the way they remembered.

Living in a small town, it was tough, beacuse I knew so many of the people or relatives of theirs. That little girl though broke my fucking heart...it was that night I knew I couldn't do it anymore...

I guess it made me think more about my own mortality.

I remember getting a chill up my spine during Tony Todd's speech in "Final Destination" as the guy I worked under once said something similar....
