Led by professional makeup and special effects artist Alana Fores, this practical workshop taught participants how to create particular looks for film and media projects. Alana has worked on films, music videos and fashion shoots and took participants through some of the key techniques and skills she uses to turn people into zombies, create realistic injuries or put together high fashion looks.
