Work History of Sandra Ivatović makeup & hair design work
In 60 movies and TV serial novels, 25 short movies and more than 50 commercial and 60 video clips.
I want to thank all my producers, directors and fellow filmmakers I have worked with over the years, who believed in me, my ability and my talent and gave me an opportunity to create the magic of film alongside them.
My name is Sandra Ivatović, and I am a film makeup artist and hair stylist. I fell in love with this glamorous artform at an early age, through my mother Radmila Todorović, who is a make up designer, and my father Branko Ivatović who was a cinematographer.
I started my career in a TV series called “Around the world in 80 days” , and then worked in a film opera “Boris Godunov” in 1989. Thanks to my mentors Giancarlo del Brocco and Michel Deruelle and of course with the masterful guidance of my mother Radmila Todorović, I entered the fascinating world of film masks by signing on to the TV series “Aleksa Šantić“, the story of which included events for a period of 60 years of the poet Aleksa Šantić. On this project I improved my skills in making wigs, moustaches, beards, etc., working in a team for aging main characters who gradually go through the four stages of life.
Then I worked on films such as “Tri Karte za Holivud“, “Tango Argentino“, “Ni na nebu Ni na zemlji”…
Between 1993 and 1997 I continued as a makeup artist and a hair stylist for films such as “Before the rain” directed by Milcho Manchevski, “Black Cat, White Cat” by Emir Kusturuca, and “Pretty Village, Pretty Flame” by Srdjan Dragojević. I gained an invaluable amount of professional experience through working with cinematographers Darius Kondji and Thieri Arbogast.
I worked on a number of movies in Macedonian cinema, including “Gipsy Magic” by Stole Popov, “Bal-can-can” by Darka Mitreskog, and “Dust” by Milcho Manchevski.
Then continued on to films that occupy a significant place in Serbian cinema, like “Midwinter Night Dream” and “The Optimists” by director Goran Paskaljević, “Duds” by Radoslav Raša Andrić, “Normal people” by Oleg Novković, “The Red Coloured Grey Truck” by Srdjan Koljević, as can be seen in the list of references of their CV and IMdb pages respectively.
In 2007, I was invited to work on a Turkish production TV series called “Elveda Rumeli“, which was filmed in Macedonia, where I met directors Serdar Akar and Tarkan Karlıdağ.
My professional work has started in Turkey in 2010 with the movie titled “EV” by Caner Özyurtlu. Afterwards, with the invitation from directors Serdar Akar and Tarkan Karlıdağ, I signed on to work on the cult Turkish Tv series “Behzat Ç.”, which was 3 seasons, 96 episodes long. I also worked on the movies based on the same TV series “Behzat Ç. Seni Kalbime Gömdüm” and “Behzat Ç. Ankara Yanıyor” before the series ended.
Our cooperation with director Serdar Akar continued with TV series titled “Cinayet” and “46 Yok Olan“.
I also worked again with Caner Ozyurtlu on horror movie titled “Ummu Sibyan Zifir” and comedies “Yok Artık!” and “Yok Artık! 2“, and an international project called “Timelooper” created for the museums in London, New York and Turkey.
I speak 4 languages: Serbian (native language), English, French and Turkish.
