И вот еще одно интересное интервью Вэл, также приуроченное к выпуску книги. http://www.anothermag.com/fashion-beauty/11271/val-garland-on-staying-relevant-and-spraying-gisele-with-axel-grease

И два главных и самых вдохновляющих, на мой взгляд, пунктов из него. О том, что работа визажиста не заканчивается на моменте, где вы просто сделали мейк. О том, как важно признавать свои ошибки и уметь работать в команде. А еще — иметь свой unique selling point (то, что вас отличает и продает) и идти в ногу с тем, что происходит в индустрии. - “I like the idea of just being spontaneous and just sort of making it up as it happens when I’m on set. It can all change in an instant: what you’ve done in the make-up room might look great in the make-up room, but by the time you’ve got hair, you’ve got clothes and you’ve got lighting, you’re looking at the full image on the monitor and something’s not right. So you have to work out what that thing is. And it might be the case that I have done some incredible make-up, but it just doesn’t work as a whole, so I have to take it all off and start again. I’ve been in that situation loads of times and I think it’s about not having an ego, but working collaboratively to get the best picture. It’s never just about the make-up, it’s about the whole thing: does it work? Do you believe it? And if you believe it, then it’s worked.”

- “First and foremost, you have to have an utter belief that you can do it, because there are always people who are going to say ‘no, no, no’. You have to have a thick skin and you’ve just got to keep knocking on doors. Now more than ever your presence on social media is vital, because that’s where lots of people look for work; nobody’s looking at a whole load of books in an agency anymore, it’s all completely social media-based. This is going to sound really wanky now, but you’ve got to find your unique selling point – your USP – what have you got that someone else hasn’t got? And if you want to stay relevant, you have to keep changing, because that’s the nature of the beast. Fashion imagery doesn’t stand still, so you have to change with it.”
