So, on the old site I used to write columns on a regular basis. \u00a0Well, ok maybe not so regular of a basis but still, they were written and things were said. \u00a0I had to stop due to lack time. \u00a0 Well today I am forcing myself to have the time to write this one.<\/p>\n

There are TONS of talented people here are Forbidden Panel. \u00a0More than I know what to do with. \u00a0I always feel so lucky to have been able to find myself\u00a0surrounded by such\u00a0amazing and wonderful talent. \u00a0So I think every now and then I will write about them as a way to introduce them to world while we wait for them to finish the projects they are working on for us.<\/p>\n

Cameron Dortch is someone to look out for. \u00a0He has amazing energy and motivation and I often find myself in awe of his determination. \u00a0He is an artist with a mind and sense of\u00a0humor\u00a0to\u00a0parallel\u00a0\u00a0my own. \u00a0But more importantly he has skill.<\/p>\n

Currently he is working on a project with his fiance called Black Friday. \u00a0It is a comic about how people become so overwhelmed with their shopping madness that they themselves turn into monsters and bring out the worst as human beings. \u00a0We here are very excited to see it.<\/p>\n

He is also an artist on our new webcomic, Security. He is working along side other artists in order to help bring this series alive. \u00a0It’s exciting to see his energy when working on these projects. \u00a0His desire to make these dreams come true is awesome. \u00a0You can visit his art stylings by visiting his Facebook<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

I choose Cameron to be the first spotlight not because of his enthusiasm or drive but because of the recent atrocity that has befallen him. \u00a0Many of you maybe familiar with the show\u00a0Face Off<\/a>. \u00a0It is a show on SyFy that shows different makeup artists\u00a0competing\u00a0for a chance to work on a major\u00a0Hollywood\u00a0horror film. \u00a0Recently, they held a contest to see who would become the next contestants on the show. \u00a0Cameron, who has been doing SFX makeup for years, submitted for the contest. \u00a0Unfortunately\u00a0he did not qualify.<\/p>\n

I say\u00a0unfortunately\u00a0not for him but for Hollywood and the show as well. \u00a0Cameron is hard working,\u00a0imaginative, driven, and as I said before, skilled. \u00a0His dream to work in the industry has be roadblocked. \u00a0I don’t know why he wasn’t given the opportunity to become a contestant on the show. \u00a0But what I do know is that it is a shame. \u00a0A shame that they have overlooked this talented individual.<\/p>\n

I hope that Cameron doesn’t allow this to sidetrack him anyway. \u00a0I know I will continue to do my best to motivate him and push him until he is able to achieve his dream. \u00a0Please help me in supporting him by letting him know that you out there recognize his talent.<\/p>\n

You can view his submission by clicking HERE<\/a>. \u00a0His entry is on page 13. \u00a0You can see them in full size below.<\/p>\n\n

Check out his Facebook page to see more in his gallery and stay tuned to Forbidden Panel as we will have more from Cameron in the upcoming years. \u00a0SyFys loss is our gain!<\/p>\n
