19 Pictures Showing What Movie Characters Would Look Like Without Their Iconic Make-Ups
Normally, most people don't go in front of a screen without having a touch of makeup on. It's as if the face must be snatched each and every time a picture or video has to be taken.
This is so for movies as well. The term "movie makeup" refers to a variety of cosmetic application techniques, from utilizing camera-friendly products to looking natural in front of the camera to applying prosthetic makeup to creating SFX characters in sci-fi and horror movies.
While "film makeup artist" frequently refers to someone who applies makeup to the actors' faces, "body makeup artist" refers to someone who applies makeup to numerous parts of the body. This might also include SFX wounds and effects like scales or alien skin in sci-fi films.
The actors have been transformed into some of our favorite characters by these makeup artists. The amount of work that was put into it is astounding.
