A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Megan Lauchner is a certified professional makeup artist based in the Los Angeles area. Having an interest in art for as long as she could remember, a strange turn of events brought her to the world of film and television makeup. Loving a challenge, large and small has caused her to have her fingers in a lot of different pies of makeup needs. With experience in Film, TV, Print, Bridal, and Event, she continues to learn and grow her skills past her formal education earned at Los Angeles makeup school, Makeup Designery. Never one to shy away from the strange and unusual, her work encompasses a wide variety of both projects and clients. From headshots, photo-shoots and weddings to Slasher films and full body monster suits, her ability to deliver the visions of her clients is one of her greatest strengths.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
