The Opera Singer đâ¨
Jaime Groote @jamiegroote as the Opera Singer in Episode 2 of Starfleet Academy.
Some of you might recognize this design⌠originally created for Section 31âs Torch Singer (sheâs coming next đ). We had extra pieces from that build and decided to give them a second life for Starfleet.
Resized and fully repainted by @michael.alucard to shift the tone and fit this characterâs world.
Application by Prosthetics HOD @brandi.boulet (me), Jordan Samuel @makeupjordan and Lori Sasaki @ltsmakeup
Featuring a clip of Jaime alongside the legendary Robert Picardo @robert_picardo (donât miss that voice), plus a before & after of the appliance pre/post paint adjustment.
Prosthetic design by Glenn Hetrick / Alchemy Studios

đ° Reviews for soprano Jamie Groote's Fiordiligi with Vancouver Opera!
"Grooteâs Fiordiligi is measured and conscientious, charming and perhaps shy if not guilt-ridden, with a sensibility faithful to Mozartâs graceful writing." - Opera Canada
"The singing here more than lives up to that promise, as when Okulitch, Groote, and Hetherington pull off a beautifully modulated rendition of the operaâs...âSoave sia il ventoâ. Groote and Hetherington have a sister-like onstage chemistry that extends to voices that interweave nicely. For her part, Groote effortlessly flows through the full emotions of her extended âPer pietĂ â, her soprano revealing unusual richness." - The Stir
"Fiordiligi, well performed by soprano Jamie Groote... âPer pietĂ â... was achingly poignant. Here too the musical direction reached a sublime moment of fusion between Grooteâs voice and the French horn that perfectly echoed and enhanced her plaintive declarations on the nature of love." - The National Post
Bravo, Jamie! đ

A sneak peak behind the scenes of @starfleet_academy working with the most iconic prosthetics and makeup team!
I canât gush enough about how talented these creatives are. Watch the show and check out all their amazing work but I want to personally thank @makeupjordan@brandi.boulet@ltsmakeup and @michael.alucard who all worked on me. When youâre called to the makeup chair in the wee hours of the morning you want it to be with people like this.
Congratulations to the whole team! You have a huge fan in me!

Been holding on to this one for a while! Had a blast guest starring in @startrek âs new series @starfleet_academy where I got to sing with THE @robert_picardo just released on @paramountplus . Big thanks to the Doctor for loving opera as much as I do!
Also huge thanks to @deanartistsmanagement for making this happen and sending the hilarious text asking how I felt about prosthetics and would I be an alien? It was a resounding YES from me and what a privilege it was to get to work with SUCH a talented and iconic prosthetics team. I canât get over their dedication and endless creativity, total superstars. They deserve all the praise they are going to get and more from me soon in another dedicated post!

I canât believe how much bigger our little miss is already since these photos! Sheâs growing heartbreakingly fast but watching her learning and taking in the world is pure joy and I am going to cherish this glimpse into our newborn bubble forever. I am not someone who loves being in front of the camera but we are so privileged to have photos to look back on and to show our daughter one day. AND they are only made even more special by the amazing artist, best friend, and auntie who captured them. Thank you @samgaetz we love you to the moon and back! Hire her, be her friend, admire her art, find some way to have more Sam in your life! Youâll be better for it â¤ď¸
Looking so forward to revisiting Fiordiligi and this incredible production with @vancouveropera this season!
AndâŚ.a big thanks to @deanartistsmanagement for making it happen :)
