Any Special Effects Enthusiasts?

Thought I would post up here a contest I am helping with in the Halloween Mask making community I roll with.

Thought maybe some of you may want to enter the contest and learn to make a latex mask for Halloween and such.

Check it out here:

You can buy the mask making kit from here:

www.maskmakerkit.com

Or if you read the forum you will see several other places available for purchasing the mask making kit.

I imagine some people here could submit some good stuff to the contest.

Bring it!

Any advice on forming latex molds of ones own face, then creating a mask around that?

I think the Milk uses a model's face in the current day, but you have done that in the past, haven't you, Milk?

I one day hope to be asked to go through that process. However, it is rather terrifying. You breathe through a tube while it goes on and have to really trust the person putting that slop on you. (I think. For all I know if the tube is blocked you can scrape that gunk out easily.)

I have done some of this in the past and it is a bunch of fun. In fact, I would like to do it again real soon.

Say Robb, any interest in being the man to get a mold done of your mug?

Here is a great tutorial online for doing a lifecast:

Hope that helps.

We should buy 2 of these Robb and cast some boobs dude.

You like boobs?

I would ABSOLUTELY be up for getting a mask made of my face for one of your projects.

I get back on Monday and can be available as early as Tuesday. I'll bring the camera around and we can document the process. Seriously, I think it would be great content.

Friends of mine did some boobs. Those were cool.

Then they decided to do Keith's ass.

They did not shave his ass first.

He got stuck in the mold.

They had to cut him out by sawing away at the hair stretched between his ass and the mold with an X-acto for like an hour.

So be careful.

In preperation for this big event, Robb, please read this and get familiar with what I will be doing to your Mom's work.

Could help you be ready for the various items that will be placed on your face.

The studio is now ready to go for this event. Looks like we can do this very soon.

We will have to post pics on Jolt of this huge event.
