BARACK OBAMA FX

We had show last week in Las Vegas and Steve Bridges is now President Barack Obama!

This show was our first Obama job. I spent 5 hrs to do this makeup. Kazuhiro Tsuji is the person who designed this makeup and he is my best makeup artist friend. This is such a difficult makeup job but I had such a great time.

SEVERE BURN FX


This is a work I've done to create a convincing severe burn makeup. I applied some custom made pieces to give the texture of the burn. I colored the skin to blend it to the model's arm.

A horrifying example of severe burn don't you think? Let me know if you need this as part of your Halloween costume.

GEORGE W. BUSH FX

Steve Bridges who is sometimes George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. As you can see, he looks nothing like them, but he is so good at impersonate the ways of they talk and move. My job here is make him as close looking to the original person as possible.

Read "The Man Who Plays George W. Bush" article in The Rack Magazine.
