DIY Super Hero Mask Tutorial
Hey guys, Zack Finfrock here for our super awesome new episode of backyard effects
where we show you how to make a super Hollywood special effects and super cheap.
This week’s episode is all about a superhero’s mask.
We've all been there, just hanging out, being a normal person and then baam, you have
superhero powers. The next thing you want to do is use that superpower to fight crime
but you need an outfit. Now most superhero costumes have a mask. Sometimes, there are
full cowl that cover the entire face and head like Batman or it just something small that
covers the eyes like Robin.
In fact, the small piece is actually the most common from most superheroes. It was just
seen in Kick Ass worn by Red Mist. A little bit of paint and liquid latex, you’ll have your
own mask in no time. Now some of you guys might say why I don’t just buy a lone
ranger mask? Cut that up and take it to an actor space. Well for one, that looks kind of
lame and for two, it just sits there. But the liquid latex will move just like this, with the
actor’s emotions then they can have a full range of motion so they can be that superhero
they wanted to be on film. You know Zach, spin that wheel so we can get to crime
fighting.
You know it, let's do this.
Get a smooth mask and with the latex and appliances, black latex paint, a hair dryer, baby
powder and brush for removing the latex, spirit gum, black Halloween makeup and razor
pens or scissors.
First, we need to make your mixture of a latex paint and liquid latex. I did about three
parts of liquid latex to every one part black latex paint. Next, you want to use this smooth
side of a sponge to put it onto the mask in the area that the superhero mask is going to be.
Just like any built on any model that uses liquid latex, you have to do more than one
layer. On this one, I did 15 layers. And then because of the latex paint, I had to wait
overnight for it to dry because the drying time for the paint is a lot longer than the liquid
latex. So, be patient.
Next, trace around the entire mask area with a razor pen. You can use the edge of scissors
if you don’t have one. Then using baby powder, carefully pull up the latex mask. You can
do it too fast or no powder enough, the latex mask will tear. When the latex mask is off,
use a razor pen on the cutting board to cut it into the shape that you want. Before putting
the mask on your actor, use black Halloween makeup to black out the eyes and the eyes
socket area.
Next, use spirit gum and tack it onto the skin so it sticks to the mask nicely. And there
you have it. Make sure to hang on to the spirit gum on set because you might need to
make some touchups while filming. And the superheros mask, a simple latex build that
can be molded to have any shape and size you want. You can use the same techniques
with the liquid latex and apply it to many different latex appliances.
Tune in tomorrow on the Indy Mogul YouTube page to see the first of a two-part
superhero test film. The second one will debut next week with next week’s build. Leave a
comment below and I’ll see you then. If you have a quick tip, go ahead and pop in your
webcam, your flip cam or camcorder and send it to indymogul.com/submit. And then
we’ll throw it in our records area.
