Lights, Camera, All aboard!!!
Today I’m whisking you away to play pretend and make believe, where is this destination you might be wondering, Stark Studios of course. Stark Studios is the place that filled my life with so much wonder the past 10 weeks, that I just had to share it with all my passengers.
I was an intern in the Wardrobe department for Binnelanders, a local soapie about doctors without boundaries, with added drama, love and betrayal. Sounds hectic, you should see what happens behind the scenes! Wardrobe is magical, everything sparkles and shines, at least that’s how I saw it the first time I set foot in the department.
My shimmering world however came to a halt when we had to start preparing clothes for the dirty, blood filled and dusty scenes lying ahead. From organizing the jewelry and handbags to coco powder and sand paper becoming my best friends, the wardrobe experience covered a lot of ground.
After spending 10 Mondays at a place like this, my life feels close to empty. I have learned so much and most of all discovered that the show is only the rainbow, and as beautiful as it is to watch, the wardrobe department is the shining sun that makes it possible.
So even when all the clothes had to be covered in dust, we were still dressing stars.
