National Award Winning Makeup Design for Evil Dead: The Musical by Amy Beltrán and Constance Hill.
Due to the theatre department not having a makeup class dedicated to teaching FX makeup, we had to teach ourselves the entire process of face casting, creating latex prosthetics, and designing realistic gore makeup. Our creativity ranged from using fake nails to create teeth on zombies, to using chocolate syrup to make fake blood.
Our collaborative design won us the national award for excellence in Allied Arts at the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival back in February, 2019, as well as an internship with the Stage Craft Institute of Las Vegas over the summer.
