Day 29 - Kapital Kidvention Day 2

Well it's Day 2 of Kapital Kidvention and as you saw in the video, I started with footage of the Jam last night. It was a little slow, but tonight promises to be bigger and better!

The First General Lecture was awesome. It was "The Business of Entertainment" presented by Terra Fender of Bella Rouge Design in Marion, NC.

The next class I attended was Pam Trent's FX workshop which she cut my throat,cut off a girls finger, put a piece of glass in another girls cheek and also tried to stitch up a nasty cut on an others hand. Bloody Great!

Gen Keller, of Sparkle Designs, then finally matched me to my costume with a really great whimsical tribal cat face. Her designs are one of a kind!

I got a few interviews today just asking 3 simple questions:

1. Who are you & what do you do?
2. What got you into this business?
3. How can people contact you

And the answers to these questions were to the point, but I am going to list their websites below:

• Erica Exline - Sweet Cheek Face Painting - http://www.sweetcheeksfp.com
• Pam Trent - Way Wicked Art - http://www.waywickedart.com
• Gen Keller - Sparkles Designs - http://www.sparklesdesigns.com
• Lynn Cole - Lynn Cole Bodyart - http://www.lynncolebodyart.com

Here are the photos from Last nights jam and todays classes and demos:

Day 28 - Kapital Kidvention Day 1

Well the convention is great! I got here early this morning and was able to check-in to the hotel around 9AM and got early registration with the convention and started meeting all kinds of fascinating and interesting people. In fact most of the people I talk to on Facebook are here and i finally got to meet Marcela (Mama Clown) Murad and the Wolfe Bros, Nick & Brian.

I am sorry I did not get any footage of the classes, but they did not permit me. You will be able to buy the DVD set of the convention when it is over and I will make sure I supply a link to where you may get it.

There is so much going on and I just didn't know what I was doing, but I promise to get some interviews tomorrow and Sunday.

Tomorrows video will start with some footage of the Jam we will have tonight, so Don't worry, you won't miss a thing!

Here are some photos of the Face paintings done today: Starting with Nick & Brian Wolfe's Dragon Art, then a picture of my fish face (by Pam Trent of Way Wicked Art), Gen Keller's 2 girls with masks painted by Mama Clown and Terra Fender painted by Brady Neher!
