Tailored to the lighting, camera and role
Whether it’s a commercial, an interview or a TV production, the look needs to suit the person, their role and the visual direction.

From preparation to wrap
Briefing & production planning
We discuss the visual direction, roles, looks and shooting schedule. Working with production, camera and the director, I coordinate the time needed for make-up, hair and styling. On larger productions, this starts at the pre-production meeting.
Preparation & look development
Based on the brief, I prepare products, styling and references. For multiple people, look changes or shoot days, I map out the looks required for each scene and the preparation time they need.
Application & on-set support
I check the first looks on the camera monitor and refine the details with the camera and lighting teams. Throughout the shoot, I handle touch-ups, manage look changes and maintain continuity across scenes and shoot days.
Wrap & follow-up shoots
At wrap, I save look references and product notes for further shoot days or reshoots. Together with production, I confirm which looks will be needed again and what preparation is required.
Common questions about make-up for advertising, film & TV
When should we involve you in planning the shoot?
Ideally, while you’re still considering shoot dates. This gives us time to coordinate availability, the number of people on camera, looks and changes, and build make-up, hair and styling time into the shooting schedule.
Are you available outside Nuremberg?
Yes, I’m available across Germany. Travel and accommodation costs, where required, are listed separately in the quote.
How do you price a production booking?
I charge half-day or full-day rates. Additional costs may include travel and accommodation, look and styling concept development, and wardrobe purchases plus a sourcing fee. You’ll receive a transparent quote based on your brief and the planned scope of the shoot.
What kind of productions do you work with?
Commercials, corporate and brand films, corporate content, TV formats and photo productions — B2B and B2C alike. Over 20 years of experience, including work in the orbit of brands such as Adidas, Hugo Boss, Puma, Siemens and Schaeffler.
What do you focus on for HD and 4K make-up?
Natural skin texture, seamless blending and controlled shine. I tailor products and application to the skin, lighting and close-ups, checking the result on the camera monitor. During filming, I touch up the make-up as needed.
How do you keep looks consistent across shoot days?
I document each look with reference photos and notes on products, hair and styling. These guide the recreation of looks on subsequent shoot days and reshoots, even when scenes are filmed out of sequence.

What productions and agencies say
Tatiana reads a brief like almost no one else. The make-up sat exactly right in every frame, and on set she was the calmest person in the room.
Fast, precise, unflustered – the look held perfectly across the whole shoot day. For us the first choice in Nuremberg.
Professional, punctual and with a fine sense for skin and light. We book Tatiana as often as possible.
