Jordan Shankman Posted April 11, 2005 Author Posted April 11, 2005 Yeah, i've seen all the pictures and videos. Knotts Scary Farm looks to be pretty scary, but IMO they overuse over the head masks...they just look so fake. Also, yes, i'm planning on having a part through an alleyway beside my house that will consist of a winding tunnel (it'll look alot like the tunnel at the end of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake when the child is guiding the people through with Leatherface beind them) and you'll be chased by leatherface with a real chainsaw...without the blade of course...to the exit. SFMMXcoaster, I believe the body you saw being shocked was this...
SFMMXcoaster Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Nope, that one was in the queue, lol that one was funny when he stomps on the floor and stuff... but here's the one I saw Just the smaller version, and then behind it has strobe lights and he vibrates
Jordan Shankman Posted April 12, 2005 Author Posted April 12, 2005 Ah yes, i've seen quite a few of those. Infact, I sell both of them.
socalMAN123 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 What do you mean by "Haunt Quality". I mean like Halloween Haunt @ KBF. Not quite as good, but it will still scare me out of my boxers. ---Brent 8)
SFMMXcoaster Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 You sell them, thats cool, u say they over use the masks, when they use black out make up the masks are pretty realistic looking.
Jordan Shankman Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 Yeah, make-up does help the realism of a mask in a way, but I still think it looks cheesy. I use prosthetic appliances. They are foam filled latex faces that you apply to your own with spirit glue. They are extremely realistic, but they do take a while to get in and out of. This is probably why Knotts uses so many masks. It would be too large of a task to use those on every one of their actors. I use prosthetics made by this company... http://screamteam.com/ I can get you all of them for a cheaper price, so if you're ever interested in purchasing one, contact me through e-mail at jordan@frightmarefactory.net
SFMMXcoaster Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 How to make the wrinkles and stuff, do you do that yourself, and the paint part looks hard... you have to make it good yourself, and are they reuseable? Or do you buy a new prosthetic piece if you want a dif. monster.
Jordan Shankman Posted April 14, 2005 Author Posted April 14, 2005 The wrinkles, raised eye brows, and other facial features are all part of the prosthetic...you don't have to do any of it. All you have to do is paint it, which is actually quite easy. With each prosthetic comes a booklet that tells you which paints to mix, how much to use, and ways to make realistic shadows without an airbrush. Yes, they are reusable, but they're fragile. If you don't store them and clean them properly, they will last alot less longer. Usually, you can wear each prosthetic 15-20 times. Also, yes, you have to buy a new/different prosthetic if you want a new monster. I will sell each prosthetic for $42.95 if you're interested.
Jordan Shankman Posted April 24, 2005 Author Posted April 24, 2005 I have hired two students from Savanah School of Art and Design to come aboard with Frightmare Productions to create our very own product line. We will be showcasing at Transworld in Chicago next year. Here are some sketches we have done for some possible latex masks... Please tell me what you think!
