Moulage class was yesterday and the kids were fully engaged. Our teacher, Eric Singdahlsen, covered a huge amount of information in two hours. Riffing off moulage you could easily delve into medicine and biology, artistic vision and technique, acting, chemistry, politics, the DEA, military training, realism, and basic makeup applications. It was fascinating and funny and everyone seemed to have a great time. The kids learned how to simulate shock, bruising with black eyes, coughing up blood, lacerations, and burns with blistering. Among the various tools shown were containers of fat chunks, coagulated blood, minty flavored blood, blood in different viscosities, and something called derma-crisp. Thank you, Eric, for being such a funny and skilled teacher and for giving us the afternoon.
