Taught by Jane Rose
Jane Rose is a special fx makeup artist, horror filmmaker and writer living in Brooklyn. Her makeup work has been seen on The History Channel, The Today Show and Conan O’Brien. Her films have been screened at the Pretty-scary Film Festival for women in horror, The Coney Island Film Festival and the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival.

Zombies. To some, they are the least classy of all the monsters, shambling, brainless corpses. To others, they are a useful way of expressing society’s fears and ills through cinema. To others, they are just a disgusting, gory, bloody good time and to YOU they can be a cheap and easy Halloween costume.
In this class, we’ll gather a little inspiration from looking at some famous zombies throughout film history, and then we’ll jump right in to making our own. Class will begin with a demonstration on a willing victim and will end with hands-on practice on a partner.
Areas covered will include:
-shading, veining, and coloring
-zombie skin textures
-zombie wounds
-and maybe a couple of extra fun things thrown in
Cleanup supplies will be provided in case you don’t want to go home looking like a weirdo. Come on out to the Braaaaiiiinnnneryyyy!!!
