Legendary special-effects artist Rick Baker brings his movie makeup magic to MAC with Day of Dead - a Halloween look designed exclusively by the artist. Learn how to create it step-by-step.
very talented artist. much respect for you Mr. Rick Baker. absolutely love your work, by far one of the best dramatic effects that ive seen of the day of the dead. thank you for showing your talent
I remember when we were in high school, Northview, and you did the make-up for the school play, "the mouse that roared". you took a really young looking freshman and turned him into a really old man. Fabulous of course. It was obvious you had the gift. You have certainly done well for yourself and so fortunate that you were able to have a career in something you enjoy. How come you aged better than me though? Sue Bennett, class of 68
Iv seen many interpretations of a sugar skull, and i dont know what it is about this one its so simplistic and effortless in design... but then again its so detailed in structure and detail and making sure that its as equal and balanced on one side as it is on the other... the work of a true master!
You're such an inspiration, Rick! You are sincerely one of the most talented individuals I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world!
This is why I am now learning to become a registered MUA. After I pass I want to carry on and specialise into the special effects make up. You just inspire me to become even better and to keep at it! I will not let myself down and I will do everything I can to hone my craft and passion to a new level :D
i kinda agree with the people "complaining about a katrina/Sugar skull is not a Halloween thing. this would have been way better with some back ground on dia de los muertos and the meaning of the day . and why some symbols are often seen in in katrina's/Sugar skulls.
Me emocionó hasta las lágrimas.....Es perfecto, cuando una imágen transmite más allá de lo visual eso es arte. Excelente el make up y la modelo supo transmitir en la mirada el personaje. Me enamoró sugar skull
I love your makeup, I love MAC!!!! I work for MAC Colombia and in my country we do not have this Collection. However, we already have done some of those exercises with what we have got. I hope that, sooner or later, I will be able to get hold of them.
Thanks for this video!!! I have always wanted to try doing this look for a halloween party this year but didn't know were to start, now I have more of an idea, thanks so much!!!
No, it isn't a sugar skull, it's a ''Catrina''. Catrina as a popular symbol of death (or one of the symbols within the entire worldview and Mexican culture before death) was created by José Guadalupe Posada, and named as such by the muralist Diego Rivera. It's all about culture.
I agree! This tutorial totally depict the Catrina; the colors and decorations also emulate the mexican sugar skull. I loved all the process, except for the spider and spider web, totally out of place, I wonder why a lot of people include them on their Catrina designs, whish they wouldn´t !
