Makeup, Hair and SFX
- Saturday 17th August
We will be recreating a Viking battle scene, discussing researching, prepping and the logistics of getting hundreds of Vikings ready for the shooting day. There will be a live demonstration using hair, makeup and SFX to create this authentic character for the pre-battle scene and then changing the same character for post battle. Demonstrating the application of injuries, mud, blood, sweat and tears. You will have the opportunity to try out some of the SFX techniques - not for the faint hearted!
