Make-Up Effects

Make-Up In Movie History

From the 1920s to the 1950s monster movies took full advantage of the movie make-up industry. Most of the materials and basic concepts for these make-up styles are still used to this day on movie sets.





Green Screen Make-Up
Modern movie make-up has become more detailed and realistic. Often times combining with digital media to create monsters that could walk right off the screen.
And example of this is in Pan's Labyrinth. In creating several of the monsters the make-up artist included green patches so that later digital animators could go back and remove/animate certain parts of the creature's body.
