Dayna Behsman applying make-up to actor Jordan Davis on the set of "Zit"

Meet the crew: Dayna Behsman, make-up/sound

Dayna is surely a contender for MVP on the “Zit” set. An apprentice mechanic by day, Dayna offered her services as a special effects make-up person to create the titular “Zit” on the face of Jordan Davis, who plays Alex in the film.

“I’ve always been interested in make-up,” Dayna said, “although I’ve never really done special effects make-up. I thought it was a great chance to develop my skills and learn something new.”

Not only that, Dayna stepped in to help out with sound recording when the original crew member had to pull out. After a quick run-down from Director of Photography, Daniel Rutter, Dayna was able to step up and perform sound recording duties.

Working on the set has helped develop Dayna’s interest in working on films and she hopes to be able to work on other film projects.
