Yana Stoyanova: Bulgarian cinema should not try to catch up with Hollywood to be good

She also recounted details of her work on several productions.

"'The Way Back' is a very important film for me, as you know most cameras are digital now. It was my last "real" film. During the work I learned a lot of new things about make-up. And it was Peter Weir's last film, which was quite emotional."

"We had a lot of difficult scenes in 'Conan', reaching up to 6 hours, with 3 people working on them. We have 8 hours to do make-up, 12 hours to shoot and then take the make-up off, extremely intense," she added.

According to her, getting to the top mostly requires a lot of work.

"I reached Hollywood with a lot of work. People say it's all talent. But I think if you have a dream and you want to reach it, you can. I was into painting and 'Willow' inspired me to pursue it this career. I majored in makeup and gradually rose through the ranks with a tremendous amount of work," Stoyanova concluded. / BGNES
