In this stage special effects makeup class, you’ll learn the art of transforming actors into creatures, characters, and beings from another world. Using a variety of techniques, from prosthetics and latex to airbrushing and aging, you’ll discover how to bring dramatic and realistic effects to life. Please note that students must bring their own makeup and tools to fully participate in the hands-on lesson.
