Makeup Gourmet's New San Francisco Production Studio Revolutionizes Bay Area Beauty Sector


SAN FRANCISCO, February, 12, 2010 – Makeup Gourmet is proud to announce the launch of its new creative studio in San Francisco's popular SOMA district, and introduce its ground breaking MUG Shot Video & Photography Productions.

According to Makeup Gourmet, Chris Scott, the launch is the culmination of years of work and will incorporate existing business of Makeup Gourmet while adding its new MUG Shot Video & Photography Productions under one roof. The new space will be a dynamic creative studio where many diverse operations will happen simultaneously.

“As operations continually expand, it was vital to expand where we do business. MUG Shot Productions will allow us to rapidly generate vital online multimedia content for makeupgourmet.com as well as contributing to other websites or online businesses.

"The new space is extremely versatile and well suited for multi-tasking. It is windowless except four large skylights illuminating the entire space.

“With no street side windows mean it offers outstanding noise reduction control for video production. While the skylights offer a brilliant natural light source for makeup application and instruction," Mr Scott, added.

Makeup Gourmet currently offers makeup services for corporate, industry, and private clients. This new studio location gives the freedom to expand its makeup artistry training for aspiring and working makeup artists as well as advanced instruction for beauty school students. Private clientele now also have the option to have a video makeover and take their lesson home on a DVD.

New client services focus on the MUG Shot Video & Photography Productions. The studio is creating video and image media for the new http://www.makeupgourmet.com website that is set to launch later this year. In addition, MUG Shot Productions provides video production services for websites incorporating imbedded video into their online design.

As the internet transitions from YouTube entertainment to high-end professional video messaging, MUG Shot Productions will be there energetically helping others create cutting edge online video content.

Mr Scott said: "The marketing object must be to the point and simple: What is the key message presented and how will consumers react to the message on offer."

Makeup Gourmet Chris Scott’s Three Easy Winning Tips For Making Saint Valentines Day a Super Bowl


SAN FRANCISCO, January 29, 2010 - Saint Valentine’s Day and the NFL Super Bowl are only one week apart this year. For the Valentine’s Day impaired, Chris Scott, the Makeup Gourmet shares how treating Valentine’s Day like a Super Bowl will make both events produce fantastic results. Mr. Scott’s seasoned advice comes from years of working with women and fulfilling their makeup needs.

Make a Passionate Commitment
With the same fervor that plans are made to make Super Bowl Sunday an all day event, so shall Valentine’s Day be. “Try to foresee every scenario and plan accordingly” Mr. Scott says. “Making a list of needs the day before and getting shopping out of the way is one way to insure that every moment will be met without distraction”. One never knows when they will score a touchdown, but if one fails to prepare, prepare to fail.

Create the Environment
The whole point of Super Bowl is to have an interruption free six hours where every need is met. So is it with Saint Valentines. It is important to have a clear schedule so that romantic spontaneity may rule the day. This way, once the event arrives, participants are free to enjoy the game, fully focused on the sport at hand. Things are bound to get a little messy in the excitement of the competition. Relax and know that whatever happens, it can always get cleaned up later.

Leave it All on the Field
Both Saint Valentine’s Day and the Super Bowl are one-shot deals. Once the event begins, it is time to shed all doubt and enjoy the game like there is no tomorrow. Just as there are four quarters in football, so can there be on Saint Valentine’s Day. Know when to punt and how to get open and be a great receiver. Also remember, after every touchdown, it is equally important to score that extra point. Play beyond expectations once a year and the benefits will resonate throughout the rest of the year.
