Can you give me specific info on the clay you guys are using? Please :)

[VancouverFilmSchool]

@2DayWithPatrickJ The Makeup Design for Film & Television program uses mostly Chavant clay, and sometimes Roma.

We are planning on uploading regular examples of student work from our Makeup Design program from here on in. The variety and quality of work is amazing.

Looks like fun. Also, goop-intensive - a treat for young people not allowed to play in the mud as kids.

"Goop-intensive" is a PERFECT description!

I really like the bird. Super cool.

[DarkAngelEU]

I loved the Eddie mask^^ and the bird was nice, too

[xINVISIGOTHx]

some of those are really nice

I think Giselle Smart's is the coolest, but every mask was great. I have whatched this like 5-7 times and I still thinks it's cool.

The tree/nature mask was by far my favourite! It really stood out from the rest!

I thought this as well, but I found out that with pipes/straws in the nose, a slight bump can cause huge nose bleeds and other injuries. It's not difficult at all to keep the molding substance form blocking the nose. the person being cast can take the molding off at anytime if they cannot breathe. Yes it destroys the mold, but safety is always first.

That sounds kinda uncomfortable to me haha

[PikachuSketch]

i think it would cuz the mask 1 look different bcuz the pipes would cause wrinkles in the mask or it would just take more time or sumthing im not real sure.

[nevermore154]

I never understood why you didn't just put pipes up the noses of the people to ensure the substance wouldn't go into their nose or block their breathing
