My contribution

Head of Makeup and Wardrobe.

Since the short film "Sex Shop" was an independent project that raised part of its budget through a crowdfunding campaign on the Verkami platform, Leticia assumed technical direction and unified two distinct visual departments under one command. Responsibility over the cast: Visual design, garment selection, and characterization of the three actors who made up the main cast: Judit Ampudia, Jose Pérez-Ocaña, and Mireia Ferré Bermusell. Adaptation to the narrative tone: Application of makeup and styling techniques aimed at fitting precisely with the premise of the script (co-written by Isabel Casanova and Núria Rusiñol), which required approaching the plot from a comedy perspective and with an "erotic-festive" aesthetic touch. Execution on location: Direct set work during the shooting days (scheduled for March 2019) and assistance in caring for the team's image during the physical pre-premiere of the work in Manresa.
