HUGO ANDRE TALKS ABOUT HIS MAKEUP

HUGO ANDRE, a UK-based writer and director, is exclusively profiled in the September issue of VIEWTIES — a digital publication founded and created by Vanesa Miraglia — whose goal is to give readers an “intimate” look at creatives from around the world.

In this latest edition, Vanesa asks Hugo some probing questions, and elicits some previously undisclosed information about his latest feature film. Here’s an excerpt:

V: Let’s talk about your upcoming feature MAKEUP. The plot sounds very interesting, where did you get the idea from, and what inspired it?

HUGO: I came up with the idea for MAKEUP three years ago on the exact same day that I screened my first short …. It was this weird lightbulb moment … [as] I wanted to create something bigger …. The idea sparked from a conversation … about someone we knew who was transitioning from male to female -- which then led me to think about the mental process from first thinking they wanted to transition, to then actually doing it. Based on an idea birthed from a conversation I had, I began developing fictional characters …. We settled on one of the lead characters, a seemingly macho man who catches the eye of his female co-workers and is envied by the males roaming the office. Although confident and charismatic at work, he hides a secret life …. I then wanted to add another character into the mix, an introverted French food critique named Sacha, who rents a spare room …. Sacha's character is based on my dad, [who] came to London from France as young French chef ….
