From dust jacket notes: "With the demand for more accuracy and authenticity in films, television, and the stage, more sophisticated makeup techniques are needed. In Techniques of Three-Dimensional Makeup the reader is given a pictorial guide to the technology of prosthetics, a makeup technique that is used in theater, film, and television. Prosthetics involves making appliances that seem to change the appearance of face, head, or hands, altering a person's physical characteristics to make him or her seem older or resemble someone else....The reader is taken through all the steps of aging an actor with prosthetics - from twenty to forty to fifty-five to seventy-five years of age. The reader will learn how to take a life mask, make the positive and negative molds, make foam-latex appliances, cast hands and special features such as teeth and ears, and duplicate natural wrinkles and skin textures for stock use. In addition, there is a gallery of characters created through prosthetics, many including a photograph of the actor or actress before the application of makeup...." 8.25 x 11 inches, 184 pages, over 100 color plates and 500 black and white illustrations, Index.

This book offers excellent detailed descriptions of the basic steps and processes involved in creating prosthetic makeup effects. Step by step photos and narratives take you from creating a life mask though sculpting a character and on to foam latex appliances.
