LOCAL706.ORG • 29 Hanny Eisen (right) doing touchups with matte paste. President Bradford's hair ultimately transitioned into disheveled, sweat-affected textures that mirrored the rising tension and his demise. ZOË: For past scenes, I wanted to create a look that felt tanned and youthful for his college years, toning down any correction and highlighting to show his natural age as he progressed to his White House years where he was neat and clean-shaven, very Kennedy- esque. This was in contrast to his stubble and dark circles as he is seen in Paradise City. Stevie Bettles, prosthetic designer, created a body double for James, who was working in London at the time. His body was scanned there and the file sent to us with a tight turnaround. Once James arrived in L.A. just days before filming, we life-cast his hands and feet to complete the body. It was used for scenes where James's character is dead on the floor for extended periods—we didn't want him lying there for hours. Affectionately named "Russell," the fake body patiently endured fake blood and long takes. The piece included punched-in hair (Michelle Nyree) and custom eyes made by Fourth Seal Studios and we matched injuries with prosthetics, which were later applied to James for his fight scenes. President Bradford's secret love interest, Nicole Robinson (Krys Marshall), is a high-ranking Secret Service agent. MICHAEL: Hair stylist Ursula Simpson used a custom lace wig to create Robinson's structured and professional classic bob. To ensure a natural look, we adapted the wig to allow the actress' natural hairline to remain exposed. This subtle detail refined the overall finish, along with a ceramic flat iron which added shine and a realistic touch to the style ZOË: Hanny Eisen applied Kris's make-up, creating two looks for her. A no-fuss clean natural beauty make-up for her everyday work look and a relaxed full glam look for her date, using Hourglass Ambient powder, and MAC Mineralize skin finish for a perfect natural finish. For full action sequence from the White House to the bunker and Hanny was always one step away splattering blood and sweat. Dr. Gabriela Torabi (Sarah Shahi), a psychotherapist and social architect of Paradise whose dedication to Sinatra leads her into a world of chaos, has a warm and soft approachable feel to her character. MICHAEL: My invaluable Assistant Department Head, Michael Anton-Prockiw, enhances her long locks by using various conical and flat irons, oil, and Oribe texture spray and cream, creating soft casual look. ZOË: Laura Lieffring, my Assistant Department Head, did Sarah's make-up. While keeping her look simple and neutral, she had her work cut out covering Sarah's numerous hand and arm tattoos, especially for an intensive shower scene. She settled on airbrushing with European Body art colors and sealing with Krylon fixer spray. Agent Jane Driscoll (Nicole Brydon Bloom) is a member of the President's Secret Service detail. In the Season 1 finale, we see the dramatic end to Jane's once unwavering commitment to Sinatra. L-R: Michael Anton, Michael Reitz, Ursula Simpson and Mindi Coats (in back) MICHAEL: Michael A. created her sleek 'killer' ponytail, achieved by flat ironing, backcombing her crown and applying dry wax. The episode ended with a playful, half flat ironed beach waved updo, creating a detached and psychopathic reality for her character. Clay head cast of James Marsden
