SFX - scars, wounds etc.
It's the small details that decide whether an effect looks believable. In this subject, you will learn how to create SFX make-up realistically and precisely.
First, you will learn about materials science and the properties of latex, wax, silicone, gel textures, fake blood and various color palettes such as alcohol-activated paints and oil paints. They learn how these materials behave, how they are constructed and modeled and how they can be used safely . The focus is particularly on texture work so that scars, skin changes and wounds look organic and not "artificial".
You will then deal with different types of wounds : cuts and stab wounds, abrasions and burns, bullet and bullet wounds, fresh and healed scars as well as bruising and swelling. They train color build-up, depth, shadow control and the effect of gloss and mattness. Bald caps are also used. You will learn how to adjust them, glue them and blend edges cleanly - as a building block within the many SFX techniques.
In practice, you will practise the various effects step by step and combine materials until realistic results are achieved. You will sharpen your eye for what injured or altered skin actually looks like and learn how to recreate this professionally. The aim is to learn a safe and controlled approach to SFX techniques that look authentic, believable and cinematic on the skin.
