Director's Thoughts

"Sarah is a must-have asset on set and in pre-production. She is easy-going and incredibly talented. On set, if she has 5 minutes she will give you something great. If you give her 10 minutes, she will make you something spectacular.

"Sarah Dorsey is an artist. As a director, it is great to work with Sarah who vibes with your creative decisions and take them to directions you did not think about. Sarah will take character descriptions and externalize them in the make-up. This is true from simple black eyes to lacerations on the face! Working with her on Project 420 was a god-send. She is easy going and incredibly fun to have on set. I would recommend her without a blink. Unless our projects conflict time-wise, in which case she is awful and you should give her to me."

      Director / Producer
      Project 420

"Sarah Dorsey is impossibly talented and a blast to have on set. Whether she's turning a 20-something into an intergalactic space creature, flawlessly replicating the makeup style of a 1920s monster movie, or simply touching up actors for camera, Sarah does it faster, nicer, quieter and better than anyone you've worked with. Hiring her is a no-brainer, so do it already!"
