Naomi’s one of a kind approach to make-up in cinema combines academic training with deep research and storytelling, to forget looks that are at once subtle and unforgettable.Starting out by working at the BBC, Naomi soon began to lend her talents to some of the most beloved films of recent times, from working alongside Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig on the "James Bond" franchise, to her regular collaborations with Emma Thompson on films like “Matilda: The Musical” and “Good Luck to You, Leo Grande”.The Academy have recognised her singular work three times, for the 2017 war-film "1917", the 2021 Disney film "Cruella" and the 2022 comic-book crime epic "The Batman".Naomi has also used her platform and talents for good, launching the YouTube series "Made Up Stories" which, featuring guests like Ruby Wax. This series sees Naomi craft stunning beauty looks for women who, because of health issues, unfortunate events or through ageism or sexism don’t feel quite like themselves any more.On today’s episode, Naomi details how Doctor Who became an unlikely moment of inspiration for her and her career, her work with talents like Robert Pattinson and Matt Reeves on "The Batman", and the evolution for her work on the "007" franchise.Plus she’ll be sharing why working with Emma Thompson across multiple projects remains such a delight.All of this & more on today's episode of "Creatively Me".Naomi Donne - https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0232644/Naomi Donne on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fnaomidonnemakeupdesigner%2F&is_from_rleMade Up Stories by Naomi Donne on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/naomidonneConnect with Daniel on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/d.heaphymedia/Connect with Daniel on Facebook - https://m.facebook.com/100067449105174/Connect with Daniel on LinkedIn - https://ie.linkedin.com/in/daniel-heaphy-4984381a3Daniel on IMDB - https://www.imdb.com/name/nm13256427/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_1_nm_7_q_DANIEL%2520HEAPHYEmail - [email protected]“Creatively Me” Theme Music by Bukky - https://open.spotify.com/artist/1v7rqTLaVA3Ce6Q9R98dSqDaniel Heaphy is a twenty-six years old graduate of a BA in Creative Digital Media and an MA in Film & Screen Media.
