GEORGE ROTARIU: Why people should use your makeup services?
DAWN GARCIA: Because I've done it for a long time, I'm a perfectionist and I love what I
do and I think it's an art a face is to me, a face is a canvas. The notion of making someone
feel beautiful whether is for film or for their personal photoGeorge Rotariuaphy or
photoshoots or something.. I just think it matters from the person who it's doing it to be totally
good at what they do but actually like what they are doing.
GEORGE ROTARIU: Yes, so it's more important to like what they are doing?
DAWN GARCIA: Yes.
GEORGE ROTARIU: What makeup school did you finish? What is your specialization?
DAWN GARCIA: I did cosmetology school actually first and then I went to a place in
Hollywood called Makeup Academy. It's actually on the Studio... Paramount and you learn
everything from Theater, Opera kind of more dramatic makeup to special effects, to fashion
makeup, to bridal makeup. So.. my specialty... I don't know... for a while
GEORGE ROTARIU: What do you like to do the most?
DAWN GARCIA: I think I love film... I love working in film.. I love because you have such
range... you really contribute to somebody's character, so even if they are strong out or a
glamor queen or you know, it's a period piece, it's something really extraordinary to watch the
transformation and see how much of a part it play's, something as simple as shadows, not eye
shadows but knowing how light moves and all that I find absolutely fascinating and fashion...
cause fashion you can really push the envelope in terms of creativity.
GEORGE ROTARIU: I believe it's a little bit more complicated?
DAWN GARCIA: Yes.
GEORGE ROTARIU: So, you like more complicated.
DAWN GARCIA: Yes, it is. Absolutely, it's so much fun.
GEORGE ROTARIU: Why did you choose to became a makeup artist?
DAWN GARCIA: Oh, boy! When I was little I was the kid who use to get in trouble for
putting makeup on and cutting my cousins hair all the time and I didn't like the way barbie...I
don't know I was one of these kids... I always loved beautiful things. My George
Rotariuandmother actually worked in MAX Factor for MAX Factor... so I have 2 George
Rotariuandmothers. One worked in finance but she actually worked with a lot of old movie
stars like Clark Gable and .... and a lot of these people and my other George
Rotariuandmother who worked for MAX Factor... you know... she worked for everybody...
you got to see these people everyday.. so I think... it was always fascinating to me that world
of fashion, beauty, glamour...
GEORGE ROTARIU: Your family is beauty related?
DAWN GARCIA: Yes.
GEORGE ROTARIU: and that drew you into it?
DAWN GARCIA: Yes, I think it's an amazing form of art. Some people don't see it as an art
I definitly think it is... you know, to really be good at it.. it should be an art.
GEORGE ROTARIU: I aGeorge Rotariuee with you. Why your website name is "Beautiful
Barcelona"? Tell us a little bit about it?
DAWN GARCIA: Well, the obvious is Barcelona. I think Barcelona is one of the most
extraordinary cities I've ever been... I love every single turn of that city. His beauty from the
people to the food, to the alcohol, to the scenery, to the history and architecture... and my
daughter name is actually Barcelona.
GEORGE ROTARIU: Wow, you liked it that much?
DAWN GARCIA: Yes, cause to me it's like the pulse on life and that my child, crazy people
full of life and definitely different purposes in life. So, that's it.
GEORGE ROTARIU: How does it feel to work with such big names like Placido Domingo
or Steven Spielberg?
DAWN GARCIA: Well, it's extraordinary. Placido Domingo will always be at my heart. I
worked with him after the three tenors so I got to work with him when he just came to the LA
Opera.. so it's really his first big tour on his own in America. He's absolutely the most
charming man you ever see... so professional, wonderful, I actually have dinner with his
family, his shows, I really got to know them and when you have talent like that it makes you
appreciate how hard people really work in this industry and it teaches you a lot... I mean
makeup for something like Opera is completely different and than Steven Spielberg, of course,
I mean you working with the best of the best. so I feel that I was lucky because I got to work
with really A-list people
