The third in a short but growing line of  supposed costume designers for Future Grey.

Amy Gurian is yet another example the fine bullshit artists we seem to cultivate in New England. She was hired back in July to make three costumes for my production " Future Grey " we were supposed to start  filming in August. She arrived through a referral from one of the actors in the movie. Came to the cast read  and took measurements for all my actors. Detailed measurements I might add, and I thought to myself. " Self ! Maybe this one can make it happen "

She agreed to $200 a costume and to get the costumes done by the top of  August. Needless to say. This didn't happen. She scheduled then canceled. Scheduled then canceled.

Long story short. Two and a half moths passed before I received my final product.

This was on October 1st.

 I had to drive to her residence in Providence to collect what she had finished and it wasn't much. One and a half costumes that were barely passable at best. Lipstick and coffee stains. Unfinished hems. Handed over crumpled up in a plastic bag.  Needless to say I was not happy.  Still not in fact.

If she would have met her deadlines and kept her word. She could have made a few thousand off this project alone. As it was I gave her $300 for the costume and a half and still feel like I was ripped off.

As it stands now. We have to modify what she gave us, and finish the rest of the costumes ourselves. We missed our shooting window and even at the end I gave her a chance to make things right. I told her that if she wants to continue. To email me the material costs for what remained. No email ever arrived as expected.

The real topper about this was the verbal spewing she gave me every time we talked. She would constantly assess that she was FABULOUS, but I guess she was. A fabulous liar, a fabulous flake, and a fabulous waste of time.

Hire her at your own risk.
