Beauty – Brisbane
In 2014, I was stepping onto my first feature film set as an actor.
I was incredibly fortunate to witness some of hollywood's best makeup and fx artist's and the magic they create.
Although I worked as an actor for the film
during my four months on set, being in and out of sound stages, makeup studio's and various roles, I knew this experience had awoken another creative monster inside of me.
The same year, I began my Bachelor of Arts in Contemporary Theatre at Griffith University. Throughout my degree i dabbled in a mountain of creative fields, exploring my passion for makeup, design, costume & performance.
I worked on various shows, primarily as a performer but in 2016 I began work as a makeup artist for two productions.
In late 2016, i decided it was time to run full speed with makeup artistry and created my Instagram and brand of
Nick James FX.
Now in 2018, working in theatre as an assistant director, performer, creator and makeup artist/designer. I continuously embark on self-driven makeup projects that challenge and tempt my wild sense of creativity.
Prepare yourselves and let's make magic.
