Contacts

In these holidays, I have contacted Weta twice by phone. The first time I asked the reception lady if she could refer me to Lindsey. A week later I rang again as I still hadn't heard anything. The reception lady said she would remind her. A couple of days later, I got an email from Lindsey. This is what it said:

Hi Isis,

This is Lindsey, I heard you contacted reception here at Weta to ask some questions about my artwork. I'm happy to answer them through email easily - hopefully I can get back to you in a reasonable time dependent on how busy we are here!

Cheers, 
Lindsey.

I can see that there's been a slight miscommunication because I wasn't asking about her artwork, I was asking for some help and tips. I emailed her back saying:

Hi Lindsey,

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm doing a school project where I am trying to make a prosthetic makeup like they do on the T.V show Face Off. I am trying to find out how to do the first part, the sculpting. Could you please advise me what I would need and do you have any idea where I could get it in Christchurch? Then once i've done the sculpt, do you know anyone who could tell me how to make it into a prosthetic?

Thanks so much for your help, it's really difficult to know who to ask how to do this.
Isis.

I still haven't got a reply, so I'm also going to contact a place in Auckland called BodyFX. 

Weta Contact

I've decided who I'm going to contact at Weta! She doesn't do Prosthetics but she does sculpting; which is one of the main parts of prosthetic makeup. Her name is Lindsey Crummett. On Sunday the 28th of June, I posted a comment on her blog (http://crummettcreatures.blogspot.co.nz/). This is what I said:

Hello Lindsey,

My name is Isis and I go to Selwyn House School and I am in year 8. In year 8, we do a big project called Passion Project. I have chosen to learn about and make a Prosthetic Makeup as I have have a passion for art and costume. This will be a big challenge for me. I have looked at your work and it’s amazing and so inspiring. I know you are a sculptor, but I know that when making a prosthetic makeup you need to sculpt. I was wondering if you would be able to help me with my project by sharing your experience and knowledge with me? I’d love some advice and help. My email adress is: isisward@selhouse.school.nz

Thank you,

Isis 

I haven't had a reply yet but it was only yesterday.
