Task 5

The Lord Of The Rings (2001-3)

The Make-Up: While the most famous creation in Peter Jackson's epic, Gollum, was entirely computer generated, everyone else - from furry Hobbitses to grotesque Uruk-Hai - required extensive make-up and prosthetics.
Created By: The special make-up FX team at Weta Workshop, under the tutelage of Richard Taylor.
Cleverest Detail: The hobbit feet were so closely fitted that they had to be damaged when removed, necessitating the creation of around 1,8000 feet just for the four principal hobbit actors





The Dark Knight (2008)

The Make-Up: Move over, Jack Nicholson. Heath Ledger's look for the Joker replaced simplistic clownface with a Francis Bacon-inspired smear of paint.
Created By: Prosthetics supervisor Conor O'Sullivan, who devised a new technology based on stamped silicone that was faster to apply and felt lighter on Ledger's face.
Cleverest Detail: The 'Chelsea' smile, based on the real-life scars of a delivery man that O'Sullivan met.




Walking Dead
Greg Nicotero has created many different zombie makeup.



Breaking Bad
There are many different makeup artists thoughout the series.

BEST WIGS
Twilight (2008)




Salt (2010)

Angelina Jolie as  Evelyn Salt.
When she's blonde, she's a 'good' CIA agent. Later in the film she goes brunette, which of course signifies that she might just be the evil Russian she's accused of being.

Zoolander (2001)


Find 2 plays that are on in the UK at the moment that use Wigs. Post a link to the plays/theatres. I also want to know who are the Wig mistresses on these shows.


Wicked


The Phantom of the Opera
