Remote Makeup Application Part 2: Applying Prosthetics & Hairpieces

Andy Schoneberg

Free 7-Day Trial

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

The Covid-19 pandemic has driven makeup artists to develop innovative new ways to safely practice their craft. When approached by the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show to transform comedian Dana Gould into Dr. Zaius from the original Planet of the Apes, Andy devised a completely contact-free way to do it without ever having to be in the same room with Dana.
 
In Part 2 of his 2-part course series, Schoneberg guides Dana Gould via Zoom as he preps his work station and then self-applies a prosthetic and hairpiece. The result is as hilarious as it is effective!
