Course Description:
What IS SFX make-up, you ask?? Have you ever wondered how the movies make injuries look SO real? When you see an actor transformed into something completely magical, are you intrigued? This is the magic of special effects!
Join Talia’s Tribe and become a Special Effects Make-Up Artist!
We will be work on open wounds, brushing/irritation, prosthetic creation, prosthetic applications, monsters, animals, decaying skin, skin texture, learning all types of blood, skin color matching, reviewing NEW fx products, and we will briefly review the skills we learned in previous classes.
Whether you attended any of my other classes or not will not affect your success in this class. I will cover the basics, so we all start out on the same page… but we will go more in depth and take on more complicated challenges than we did in previous classes
This is a HANDS-ON CLASS, so you will be DOING these projects along with me. Both boys and girls will LOVE this class! It’s going to be a LOT of fun!! Hope to see you!
**This class is NOT for the feint of heart. If you are squeamish or blood & gore bother you, do NOT sign up.**
