    How to find good reference images:
    Learn the medical name for things which will help you to find clearer, better reference images instead of other people's makeup. So using 'laceration' instead of cut, 'ballistic trauma' instead of bullet hole, etc. I will often google image search but that can come up with -horrible- results so be careful, start out small.
    I also follow accounts that show good reference images and the discussion behind what happened, so people like mrs_angemi or medicaltalks on instagram, or makeup fx reference image groups on Facebook. I also like going on the Figure 1. app (like instagram for medical professionals) and you can search by body part or key words to find stuff on there too.

      Seriously though? Figure1 is an AMAZING app for /ethical/ Doctor submitted quality reference photos. It's basically Instagram for medical professionals.

    Another couple of tips:
    1. Get yourself a good mattifying creme, then if your wax/latex/silicone/gelatine/whatever looks too shiny you can mattify it to match your skin so it doesn't stand out as being fake or different from your surrounding skin.
    2. Avoid spirit gum if you can, that stuff is evil. My favourite adhesive is prosaide, I don't think it's any more expensive than spirit gum.
    3. Also another beginner mistake - thinking it will work the first time you try it. Most of my first attempts aren't great or what I want. With this kind of makeup you usually need to practice, don't expect to be an expert the first time you try, and don't be discouraged by failures - it's how you learn!
    4. yes there are two number sevens in the video my bad.

    • @Freakmo
      @Freakmo  7 років тому +1

      Yeah I use prosaide for my bald caps, and then prosaide cream (so a bit thicker) for around the edges if they're not blending out nicely / there's a visible edge)

    • @aj32769
      @aj32769 7 років тому +1

      Freakmo can you explain why you wouldn't recommend spirit gum?

    • @Freakmo
      @Freakmo  7 років тому +19

      As an adhesive it doesn't have the best... adhesion, and it has a strong and unpleasant smell. But the main reason I dislike it is because of the ether in it. It's quite common to feel like it's burning when it goes onto the skin, and if the ether hasn't fully evaporated before adhering something on top, the ether can get trapped and cause chemical burns on people's skin. So kinda unpleasant ingredients that make a lot of people's skin react to it. Prosaide is great, it's acrylic/water based and really gentle.

    Ugh those instagram makeup artists drive me crazy! They use liquid latex and tissue paper to create wounds, and then the finished look is soo anatomically incorrect and mishapen that they end up dousing it in fake blood to make it look even remotely real! This video must be seen by everyone! Youre our only hope freakmo !

    • @kayluh1681

      Witte Artistry when it comes to blood, a lot of times less is more. Like I never could understand why some people spend forever trying to make a realistic wound, and adding a ton of detail just to ruin all of that work by drowning it in blood. In the end you have spent hours on a wound just to achieve something you could have done in a few minutes. Major pet peeve of mine, lol.

    • @SimulationTek

  • @TaraNGerritsen
    @TaraNGerritsen 6 років тому +1

    Love this advice! There's one thing I disagree with though, and that's the part of not just following tutorial videos, but trying to design something yourself. While it's definitely true that you need to let go of copying and start designing on your own if you want to get really good, just following tutorials is the best way to learn how anatomy, materials, and designs work, especially if you're an absolute beginner.
    Obviously don't go posting other people's designs all over social media without their approval and properly crediting them, but also don't be ashamed of being in the learning stage where you still have to be guided through the process step by step by someone who's more experienced. And that goes for pretty much everything you're trying to learn. I think people who are experienced at something tend to forget that while it's not acceptable to do if you're a (semi)professional, the imitation stage is as important to learning as knowing how to observe and eventually transitioning into designing it all by yourself.

      Look at anatomy references, surgery videos(ed heads, UA-cam, etc. not too nasty as it’s a clean scientific environment) or videos made by trauma doctors (explaining healing process/body’s response to traumatic injuries, anatomy, and likely be less disturbing than say a picture of a body or critically injured person in a car accident, or a murder scene.)
      You can also just research the skin, especially if it pertains to yourself or your model.

      Agreed. Realism definitely takes a lot of time, skill, and forethought.

    I loved this video! I just got my first skin illustrator palettes and I've been practicing color matching. I would love to see a video from you explaining how to color match with the light flesh tones palette.. maybe even cream makeups. And what will work on what builds like latex, silicone, gelatin and wax. Thank you for all of your educational videos. I watch every single one.

    thank you so much for this video. i'm sad to say that yes i have made a few of these mistakes. i am teaching myself and just assumed that following the bigger makeup channels was the best way to learn. i have recently started to do my own research. with that and being busy with college my makeup practice has gone on the back burner but thanks to this video i am going to try and do better makeup from reference pictures of real wounds. heres hoping i don't get too squeamish lol. a look i need to do soon for my film college course is black tears so i am hoping i can find some good reference material. also can you recommend a good thing to use for black tears? as i don't want to use anything bad next to mine or anyone else's eyes.

    Great job on the opening of this with the image of an old wound being stitched up. Pretty gory in a good way. Also showing multiple types of burns and severity in that slide too. I'm not a fan of pink blood/liquid and a stickler for accuracy as one can with makeup. Also throwing a tip out that may or may not be covered, always make blood don't use actual animal blood on a set. Trying to think of the movie with the helicopter blades and I still remember briefly seeing the blood had turned brown, which it would throughout the time line and I never see that done. But, what happened was, the next shot of the same face the blood was red. Editing and things all need to be taken into consideration and also testing reaction for allergies on actors. Cool video and good to see people teaching some tips and tricks of things I notice easily when watching horror to science/med type shows.

    Even as just a self-taught horror artist, all those mistakes make me cringe so hard... I recognize many of them from my own community, for some reason people put a ton of gore over realism when it comes to creating disturbing imagery.

People who want to learn SPFX makeup are NOT getting good information from tutorials done by amateurs everywhere. I really appreciate you showing people how to actually do lacerations correctly because it pisses me off to no end.

    I like to mix my wax with lots of white since I'm SUPER pale. When I was just starting to do wounds I was actually using non toxic glue (the stuff for kids) because it dried clear and it was easy to blend it into my skin almost perfectly (I only needed to use a very small amount of concealer to blend it completely)

    If you are not great at matching skin I recommend making a wound that looks older perhaps infected then the skin around the wound will be darker, reddish and even bruised.

    I have taught SO MANY fx classes and given my students exactly the tips you're sharing, and then they make wounds and effects of their own, and I wonder, were they even listening??? Then (as you said) they throw a lot of blood over top and think they're so cool. Nope. ... Thanks for this video. I even learned a couple tricks from you. Keep it up :)
