Learn to plan & prepare a remote makeup application with 2-time Emmy-winning Makeup FX artist, Andy Schoneberg (The Walking Dead, Predators, Jurassic Park).

Throughout Hollywood history, makeup artists have found innovative ways to safely practice their craft. When asked by the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show to transform comedian Dana Gould into Planet of the Apes' Dr. Zaius at the outset of the Covid-19 pandemic, Schoneberg devised a completely contact-free way to do it.

In Part 1 of his 2-part course series, Schoneberg and his partner, wig designer Nicole Michaud, show you how they strategized the process and prepared a fool-proof makeup kit for a non-makeup artist.
