The Mad Lab

As far as haunting goes, SFX makeup is my first love.  For decades before I made my first prop, I was experimenting with makeup and prosthetics.  I remember well the first time I found a bunch of unopened Imagineering makeup at a yard sale, and the catalogs I subsequently ordered from the address on the box.  One of the things I really wanted from Imagineering (but never had the money to buy) was "The Face" - a full faced prosthetic mask that promised to be so thin and flexible it looked alive.  One of the options was "The Ape", which looked (in the catalog) just like the makeup from one of my favorite makeup movies ever - The Planet of the Apes!  I was stoked to find this video about the man behind those amazing apes.  I hope you will be, too!
