New Feature Film, "Arkon Games"

Designing the make up FX for a feature film to be shot this summer. And as it is always, we start with a life cast. This time, actor Christopher Rivera goes under the algenate. When he comes out, what will he be?

The Spring semester of teaching at School of Visual Arts has come to an end. My hat is off to a great bunch of students and the awesome work they created in my undergrad “Sets & Props” class, my “Body Casting” class ,and my Continuing Education “Specialty Costuming” class. Pictured here is just one sample of their work.

Next up, a python named Beck. Strangely, his voice sounds just like Mark Hamill. "The Halloween Pranksta".
