Modular AI Launch Event | Professional makeup artist

Being a professional makeup artist in Los Angeles, I mostly work on TV commercials, branded videos and events. I got a chance a couple of weeks ago to work with Stept Studios and Modular AI.

I was the key hair and makeup artist on this project and had the luck of working directly with the founders of Modular AI during this 2 days studio shoot.

About Stept Studios: STEPT IS AN AWARD-WINNING CREATIVE AND PRODUCTION STUDIO KNOWN FOR WORK THAT FEELS MORE LIKE ENTERTAINMENT THAN ADVERTISING.

They partner with brands, agencies, and platforms to create campaigns, commercials, and branded content with authenticity at its core. Their award-winning roster of directors represents the next generation of storytellers, working across commercial and documentary genres.

About Modular AI: They are world leaders in AI infrastructure. They contributed to so much of it, now they are reinventing it. They believe that AI is a net positive force in the world and will help transform it for the better. Their vision and mission are to reinvent AI infrastructure to advance humanity and our surroundings

Chris Lattner and Tim Davis met at Google and felt AI was being held back by overly complex and fragmented infrastructure. Motivated by a desire to accelerate the impact of AI on the world by lifting the industry towards production-quality AI software, they founded Modular.

I had an amazing time working with Stept Studios and Modular AI as a professional makeup artist in Los Angeles and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Smile Zemi Campaign | Wardrobe stylist in Los Angeles

As a wardrobe stylist in Los Angeles, I had the luck of working with Smile Zemi on their US website and campaign launch in Los Angeles, CA.

Smile Zemi boosts your child’s learning. You never forget the smile on your child’s face when they reach a milestone. With Smile Zemi, your little one can reach milestones in how they learn. Their home learning system offers a flexible method for fostering the confidence and skills learners need in today’s world. Over the past decade, Smile Zemi has helped 1 million children (and counting) experience the joy of learning while improving their academic skills.

The commercial was produced by Stories International, STORIES LLC is a full-service production, commercial and literary management company based in Tokyo with its international arm.

These campaign images were shot by the talented Elena Petrova, her photography is inspired by all the art, music and culture that she has experienced. She admires mood, mystery, gestures, eyes, shadows, eye-catching lighting and beautiful wardrobe.

I love working with children, a couple of things that I pay attention to when I style them:

Avoid logos
I use bright colors / what feels good
Prints or solid both works great as long as they are not distracting
Choose what works on camera

I had a wonderful time working with Smile Zemi and Stories International as a Los Angeles wardrobe stylist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Hollywood Park Casino Commercial | Los Angeles wardrobe stylist

As a Los Angeles wardrobe stylist, I had the luck of working with Hollywood Park Casino on their TV Commercial spot in Los Angeles, CA.

Hollywood Park Casino is the premier cardroom and entertainment destination in Southern California. They are just minutes from Downtown Los Angeles and five minutes away from LAX in the city of Inglewood, California. They offer guests an enhanced gaming experience in a fun and dynamic setting.

The commercial was produced by Tiger House Films, a dynamic, multi-award winning full-service commercial and brand media production company headquartered in Los Angeles, CA, known for it’s vibrant, modern aesthetic. Additional teams are in New York, San Francisco and nationwide.

The advertising agency on this commercial was Plan C Agency. Their adventure began in 1995 when they founded a promotions and event production company in San Francisco. What began as a college endeavor to bring Asian Americans together grew into a national brand that became a staple in the Asian events and entertainment community. On their journey, they produced over 5,000 events and amassed over 3 million attendees throughout North America & Asia.

For this TV commercial spot I styled about 15 actors and models. The looks we were going for were fashion forward, business smart casual and classy. All actors provided their outfits and I selected and matched together the looks based on the clients vision and feedbacks.

I had a wonderful time working with Plan C Agency, Hollywood Park Casino and Tiger House Films as a Los Angeles wardrobe stylist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Los Angeles AI Visual Stylist | AI Fashion Shoot Concept

As a Los Angeles AI visual stylist, I created a high end luxury fashion shoot concept digitally. Artificial intelligence (AI) has come a long way in recent years, and its impact can be seen across various industries.

The fashion industry is no exception, as AI is revolutionizing the way fashion shoots are conducted. AI fashion shoots have gained popularity due to their efficiency and precision, enabling fashion brands to produce high-quality images in less time and at lower costs.

My concept was creating a busy Manhattan city environment with beautiful top female models wearing sparkling dresses with neon lights surrounding them. New York city is a fashion capital and I love to utilize the city for any fashion shoot I’m working on. AI fashion shoots are changing the fashion industry by offering a cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable alternative to traditional fashion shoots and making it possible to create a shoot in NYC.

One of the benefits of AI fashion shoots and creating different concepts is their ability to reduce costs and save time. Traditional fashion shoots can be expensive, involving multiple staff members, equipment, and time. However, AI fashion shoots require minimal human intervention, reducing the need for staff and equipment. This makes them a cost-effective alternative for brands looking to produce high-quality images on a budget.

I had a wonderful time working with new AI Artificial intelligence programs as a Los Angeles AI visual stylist and hope to continue creating more for the future. As a remote AI fashion stylist it is important to me to stay up to date on the current trends.

Los Angeles Fashion Stylist | Sleepyhead Campaign

As a Los Angeles fashion stylist, I had the luck to work with Sleepyhead on their campaign shoot in Los Angeles, CA.

Sleepyhead is more than just a mattress topper. They are committed to hiring college students and giving back to students in need through our topper donations per ten products sold. They allow students to bring their dreams to life through college competitions, and they implement environmental solutions by reducing their carbon footprint. Sleepyhead toppers are made with advanced memory-foam that is infused with sleep-inducing properties like copper and gel.

The shot was photographed by Scott Nathan, he is an outstanding celebrity photographer, multidisciplinary artist and writer based in Los Angeles, California.

I styled and did hair and makeup on 4 fashion models throughout the shoot. We had various lifestyle and comfy outfits, following the brand’s guideline. We shot these images and videos in a luxury, modern house location during 1 day.

When I style comfy, casual outfits I often pick the looks based on what fabric they made out of. Cotton is the ideal fabric for bedtime, as it’s both lightweight and breathable, helping you to stay comfy. Linen is both breathable and absorbent, although generally not the most comfortable fabric to wear at night due to its lack of softness.

I had a wonderful time working with Sleepyhead and celebrity photographer Scott Nathan as a Los Angeles fashion stylist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Celebrity Wardrobe Stylist | One Serene Real Estate Commercial

As a celebrity wardrobe stylist, I had the luck to work with Tiger House Films and One Serene real estate company on their commercial spot. Our director was Jason Kent Carpenter and we shot this commercial spot for 2 days in various locations in the LA area.

One Serene is Pakistan’s leading luxury real estate developer, offering an abundance of luxurious amenities. Tailormade for overseas Pakistanis, every convenience has been built into the design of One Canal Road creating a superior standard of living that Lahore has never seen before.

ONE Canal Road is Lahore’s first ever luxury development for Overseas Pakistanis. An iconic new landmark shaping the skyline, ONE Canal Road’s grand apartments soar proudly above the city, setting new standards in luxury living and turning aspiration into inspiration.

I styled 8 actors in various lifestyle outfits. The styles reflected the Middle Eastern fashion standards.

The fashion industry in the Middle East area is prominent in its own right. Clothing not only defines a person’s personality, but also their origin and socioeconomic status. The choice of dress, such as hijabs or jilbabs, also symbolises the region’s core moral character.

I had a wonderful time working with Tiger House Films, One Serene and Justin Bell Productions as a celebrity wardrobe stylist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Los Angeles Wardrobe Stylist | Ontario Airport Commercial

As a Los Angeles wardrobe stylist, I had the luck to work with Ontario Airport on their Why Ever We Travel? commercial spot. Our director was Christopher Min and we shot this commercial spot for 2 days in various locations in the LA area. I styled 8 people in casual, lifestyle outfits.

I believe that dressing in a stylish way for travel is just as comfortable and easy as flying in an old t-shirt and cargo pants or sweats. Loose fitting, easy tailoring is the best choice when traveling, especially regarding your pants or bottoms of choice.

The commercial was produced by Justin Bell Productions. Justin Bell is a feature film, TV, and branded entertainment producer based in Los Angeles. Currently he’s an executive producer at Tempo helping to oversee the tech fitness company’s media content, In Oct. 2020, his horror-comedy with Disney/20th Digital – “Summoned” – aired on FX, Freeform, and Hulu. He’s in post-production on a 1970’s style superhero heist movie – The Hyperions (2020), starring Cary Elwes, and in pre-production on Andrew Hyatt’s “The Nazarene” – a horror movie about the origins of possession and exorcism.

Ontario International Airport is an international airport two miles east of downtown Ontario, in San Bernardino County, California, United States, about 38 mi east of downtown Los Angeles and 18 mi west of downtown San Bernardino.

I had a wonderful time working with Ontario Airport and Justin Bell Productions as a Los Angeles wardrobe stylist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.
