about
Vincent, also known professionally as Vince, is a freelance special effects and makeup artist known for his work on low-medium budget horror films. Together with a handful of other crew members, she's able to provide practical gore effects, prosthetics, monster makeup, and all things practical and cosmetic to a horror film that will stick with its audience for years to come.
story
Before Vinny began working in film, his skill started through Halloween and fair makeup, mostly for children. They began to work their way up through teens and young adults who each wanted something scarier for their costumes and parties, and eventually began posting tutorial videos of some of their looks online. This led to her being picked up by an amateur director who employed her help with a debut horror movie, with whom she's still friends with today.
Currently she has a number of cult classic horror films under her belt, including Teenage Scream, Bonesaw, and Late Shift. While each film has a small but devoted fanbase, its only the real diehard fans who take note of Vinny's skill.
One particular fan, Pixie, reached out to Vinny, asking him to feature on her podcast where Pixie talks about and to directors, actors, and various crew members of horror films. Vinny, though shy about appearing on said podcast, quickly warmed up to Pixie and the idea of being more recognized for their work, and agreed to make an appearance, changing their career - and romantic life.
