The song is "Dirty deeds done dirt cheap", and that is one of my goals. The makeup effects, gore, robots, and other props I can provide a film are done so "dirt cheap". How? I make them from scratch. None of the prosthetics and props you will find here were purchased ready made. In most cases, I sculpted the items in clay, made the mold, and cast the final piece. Please take a few minutes and watch the demo reel below. It shows several of the movies I have worked on over the past few years. They are all Independant, low budget films made in Texas.
I have worked on the following projects: 'Sitters Four', 'ZERO ONE', 'Murder by Mistake', ‘Knight Silver’, ‘Savage Spirit’, 'Why', ‘The 15 Minute Rule’, ‘Red Victoria’, ‘Crushed’, ‘Dementia’, 'Unglued', 'Sundown', and 'Shroud'.
I was interviewed for my effects work on “Savage Spirit” by M. J. Simpson, a British movie reviewer. That interview can be found at: www.mjsimpson.co.uk/interviews/eviljohnmays.html
Convencing wound and trama effects are my main focus. My business card attempts to get this point across. It reads: ‘I do a lot of things, but I don't do pretty’.
LIVE EFFECTS!
Ever wanted to see how the effects are applied? I am currently looking for different venues where I can set up shop. Most effects at this level take 10 minutes to apply, and can be done in full view of other there. Please, help me get the word out.
Kimle tanışmak isterim: Local film people. You do the filming, I'll do the effects.

Another awesome horror fan! If you get a chance....swing by my weekly horror column and comment. Right now under the comments we are discussing which Corey we like better. Haim or Feldman and how we feel about Haim joining another Lost Boys film. http://www.horrornews.net/Horror_Gossip/html/21.html
I am trying to prove Feldman is more awesome than Haim.
