Books
We have all admired the amazing skill of movie and television make-up. Whether it is amazement at Benjamin Button's de-ageing, spine-tingling fear of the 'pale man' from 'Pan's Labyrinth,' or the shock of the zombies in 'The Walking Dead.' It is an artform in itself and a huge part of what makes the magic of the silver screen so compelling. In this book, Academy Award-winning make-up artist Howard Berger recounts many fascinating tales in this oral history of the art, as told to him by dozens of industry insiders. This is a fascinating dive into the world of movie make-up effects, along with a treasure trove of hundreds of behind-the-scenes photographs from the private collections of the greatest practitioners of the art.
