LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- For gig workers who don’t have a typical 9 to 5 job, finding work is a hustle under normal circumstances.With the pandemic shutting down thousands of these specialty jobs across the country for months, many of these workers say it’s been a struggle to even put food on the table.Hollywood makeup artist Robert Maverick is used to creating nightmarish characters. He’s worked on all kinds of sets from live stage productions to blockbuster movies and television shows.Yet, surviving the shutdown, specifically the closure of the entertainment industry, has become a horror all too real.“It’s been the most depressing and stressful time of my life,” said Maverick.Maverick, like many other professionals behind the scenes and independent contractors around the country, works job to job whenever work is available.“We’re mostly middle class, and we don’t walk the red carpet, but we make the people who do look good,” Maverick said.“Many people think we live in a very glamorous world and that we’re very rich and entitled, but the truth is, many of us work on hourly wages and go from project to project,” said Felicia Linsky, a makeup artist who has worked in Hollywood for years. “You’re only as good as the project you get to show up and do,” she said.Career makeup artist Iris Abril, who has worked on shows like "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," said she and her husband are both gig workers. “With the pandemic, it put both of us out of work at the same time,” she said. “It’s really scary and we’re in denial,” said Abril of the fact that all productions across the entertainment industry ground to a halt for months.Now, production may resume, but the question is: how? Many fear they’ll be unemployed for months to come.Linsky started several new online business ventures while out of work in her field. She said it was not only a way to create income but a way to pass the time.“I created a virtual hair coloring and hair cutting service that ended up going across the country,” said Linsky. “I’ve always believed in online businesses, and that’s been my way of segwaying and staying positive and productive,” she said of making sure she did everything she could to bring in income during the shutdown.“We’ve all tried to stay active, but it’s been tremendously upsetting," said Stephen Lighthill, President of the Board of Governors for the American Society of Cinematographers. "It’s the danger of going outside, the danger of the pandemic, and of course what’s happened to our economy. And going forward we’re all very fearful that when we go back to work the world will be a very different place.”Lighthill said across the industry, gig workers on large and small productions will be impacted for years to come, if not permanently. “It’s going to have to change the way we work in the production of films, it's going to change the way people see films, it’s going to change the size of our audiences and where those audiences are going now. As much as we talk about going back to work, but there’s a tremendous amount of fear that we won’t have the right tools in place.”For Maverick, when the work he loved dried up, he filed for unemployment, but because of a banking clerical error, “I received one COVID payment with the regular benefits plus the extra payment of 0,” he said. “That was 10 weeks ago.”He is now still waiting for all the benefits he is owed to arrive."COVID-19 is not as big of a fear to me as sliding into poverty this far in my career where I’m just years away from retirement,” he said.Maverick said the stress and anxiety piled up with his bills. “It’s sad you have to be at this point, 30 years into your career, worried about just having food in the pantry,” he said. “I was eating every third day. I would take vegetables, because they’re cheap, and juice them and put them in the refrigerator and drink them over the course of three days.”In the midst of his physical struggle, Maverick was hit with heartbreak. His brother, an Army veteran, passed away.“I’m a fixer, I’ve always been a fixer. That’s why I do my job as a makeup artist,” he said. “But I can’t fix this. I can’t fix dead.”And he can’t turn Hollywood on overnight for the thousands of people waiting in the wings as filmmakers and lawmakers rescript the choreography on set so the show can safely go on.“Hollywood is not that far away from your front door. You just turn on your TV. We’re always there to entertain you, and we hope that you’re there for us as we struggle through this,” said Maverick. 4529

Looking to undermine rival Joe Biden 20 days before the election, President Donald Trump’s campaign has seized on a tabloid story offering bizarre twists to a familiar line of attack: Biden’s relationship with Ukraine. But the story in the New York Post raises more questions than answers, including about the authenticity of an email at the center of the story. The origins of the story also trace back to Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who has repeatedly pushed unfounded claims about Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Even if the emails in the Post are legitimate, they don’t validate Trump and Giuliani’s claims that Biden’s actions were influenced by his son’s business dealings in Ukraine.The email reportedly is from Vadym Pozharskyi, an adviser to Burisma’s board, and reads thank you "for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent (sic) some time together. It’s realty (sic) an honor and pleasure.” The Biden campaign told the Associated Press that it could not find a meeting between the then vice president and Pozharskyi on Biden's schedule. Given that the emails came directly from Trump's representatives, there are questions on the authenticity of the emails, which the Post reports came from a device left by Hunter Biden at a repair shop. Meanwhile, Twitter and Facebook have announced that they're limiting the spread of the post while they work to validate the report's authenticity. Even if authentic, the report would appear to still violate Twitter's anti-hacking guidelines."The policy, established in 2018, prohibits the use of our service to distribute content obtained without authorization. We don’t want to incentivize hacking by allowing Twitter to be used as distribution for possibly illegally obtained materials," Twitter said in a statement. The social media platforms were criticized by Trump supporters on Wednesday for alleged censorship. 1911

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A large ``Trump'' sign erected overnight on a hillside near the San Diego (405) Freeway in the Sepulveda Pass was taken down by authorities today.The sign -- consisting of white capital letters similar to the `Hollywood'' sign -- was taken down by Caltrans workers by about 9 a.m.It was not known who put the sign in place. Neither the Los Angeles Police Department nor the California Highway Patrol had any information about the sign when reached by City News Service. Freeway traffic was not affected. Lauren Wonder, chief public information officer for Caltrans, told the Los Angeles Times that the sign was on private property.For that reason, Wonder said, Caltrans workers ``laid it down so it wasn't a visual distraction'' but did not completely remove the sign, which was noticed at about 7 a.m.``This was a life and safety issue because there were concerns about distracted driving,'' Wonder said. 933

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Flames raced up a Pacific Palisades hillside Monday, chewing through trees and brush as the fire marched toward multimillion- dollar homes, forcing the precautionary evacuation of about 200 homes. The fire was reported about 10:40 a.m. near the 500 block of North Palisades Drive, with the flames driven upward by the terrain, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Authorities said there was no wind in the area, even as gusty conditions persisted in other parts of the Southland. By mid-afternoon, the fire was estimated at 40 acres, and no structures had been damaged. One firefighter suffered heat exhaustion and a civilian reported mild respiratory distress, according to LAFD Assistant Chief Patrick Butler, who said both were taken to hospitals. Shortly after the blaze erupted, some homeowners could be seen using garden hoses in an effort to beat back flames nearing their backyards, but they were clearly outmatched by the towering fire, which threatened homes along Vista Grande Drive and Charmel Lane. As the flames advanced rapidly, some residents were seen running down their driveways, giving way to arriving structure-protection fire crews. Early Monday afternoon, mandatory evacuation orders were issued for an area between Charmel Lane and Bienveneda Avenue, from Lachman Lane on the north to Merivale Lane on the south. An evacuation center was established at the Palisades Recreation Center, 851 Alma Real Drive. Officials said the evacuations were ordered due to both fire and smoke potential in the area. Even without wind, embers floating into the neighborhood from the flames below set off at least one fire in shrubs separating a pair of homes, and firefighters rushed into the area to douse the flames before any structures were damaged. Crews in water-dropping helicopters were helping attack the flames in the difficult-to-access hillside area, LAFD Capt. Cody Weireter said at an early afternoon media briefing at a command post at LAFD Fire Station 23. Fire officials also called in a pair of fixed-wing Super Scooper aircraft. ``This is an extremely challenging fire for hand crews,'' Weireter said. ``If you look at the firefighters, they're essentially clawing their way up this hillside with rocks coming down on them.'' There was no immediate word on a possible cause of the fire, Weireter said. He said it was not known if the fire originated at a homeless encampment. ``We do not have a cause, and while that subject comes up a lot, I don't have a cause for it right now,'' Weireter said. ``We have arson investigators on scene, looking to see what the cause and the point of origin is.'' He said the blaze started at the base of Palisades Drive and burned through about 18 acres within 15 minutes. ``The main message for the public is to kind of stay out of this area,'' Weireter said. ``We will have an evacuation center set up at the Palisades Recreation Center, and if you need information, we will also have a public information officer there.'' Weireter said firefighters were concerned about the forecast for high winds later this week. ``The forecast is going to be (for) increased winds by Thursday,'' Weireter said. ``That's why we're going to put a lot of resources on it to make sure this fire is wind-tested, because the winds will be coming back on Thursday.'' 3346
