Prosthetic makeup is a powerful tool that allows actors to transform into unique, otherworldly characters, limited only by the artist’s imagination. It can also be used in more subtle ways to alter physical appearances, such as creating aging, weight gain, or illness, which is useful in a variety of entertainment mediums and genres.

Prosthetic Make-Up Artistry for Film and Television illustrates two- and three-dimensional make-up techniques and covers topics like:

• life casting
• sculpting
• gelatine prosthetics
• airbrushing
• hair punching
• hand-laid hair techniques
• novelty teeth design and production

It is an essential resource for makeup and hair students in the film and television industry, as well as practitioners in theater, cosplay, and live action role play. With 424 color photographs and 14 line artworks, this book is superbly illustrated and written by Clare Ramsey, a makeup artist with years of experience and a particular passion for prosthetic makeup artistry.
