In the process of moulding my elephant (wo)man makeup at the moment I’m a little uncertain as to how successful some elements of the makeup will be and suspect that there will be a lot of trial and error involved with the moulding and casting of this thing, but hey, it’s how we learn and progress #elephantman #josephmerrick #prosthetics #prostheticsmakeup #siliconeprosthetics #makeup #makeupartist #sfxprosthetics #sfx #sfxmakeup #sfxmakeupartist #sculpture #sculpt #sculpting #sculptor #sculptress #prostheticmakeup #prostheticmakeupfx #prostheticmakeupartist #moulding #mouldmaking #mould #chavant #chavantclay #clay #claysculpture

David Bowie plays Joseph Merrick in the Broadway play “ The Elephant Man “ (1980-1981). Beautiful performer. His role as Merrick inspired his album released in 1980, “ Scary Monsters ( and Super Creeps ) “. David was very interested in the lives of “ freaks “, isolationists and oddities. I believe that when he played this role he was really absorbed by the psychological aspect of it. #davidbowie#bowie#josephmerrick#theelephantman#bowieforever#davidbowieforever#starman#ladystardust#moonagedaydream#scarymonstersandsupercreeps#upthehillbackwards#itsnogame#ashestoashes#fashion#majortom#fashion#performer#actor#talent#beauty#broadway#newyork#chicago ⚡️

During a visit to The Royal London Hospital to open two new buildings on 21st May 1887, Princess Alexandra requested to meet Joseph Merrick, known as the Elephant Man. After the tour, the Royal Party went to his rooms for an introduction. The Princess of Wales shook his hand and sat with him, an experience that left him overjoyed. The Princess of Wales gave him a signed photograph of herself and sent him a Christmas card each year up until 1889. Merrick died on 11th April 1890. Merrick’s new found friend would go on to become Queen Alexandra eleven years later in 1901 when Queen Victoria died. #queenalexandra #josephmerrick #theelephantman #royallondonhospital

‘I am not an animal. I am a human being! I am a (wo)man’ ... Meet Josephine Merrick, aka ‘the elephant woman’ - a tribute makeup that I’m currently working on to the late, great Mr Joseph Carey Merrick. This has been a tricky makeup to sculpt due to the limited amount of reference of the man himself, plus I’m using a female model Next step is to decide how I’m going to split this up and float the pieces off #sculpture #sculpt #sculptor #sculptress #josephmerrick #johnmerrick #theelephantman #elephantman #prosthetics #prostheticmakeup #prostheticsmakeup #makeup #makeupartist #sfxmakeup #sfx #sfxmakeup #sfxmakeupartist #artist #artistsoninstagram #artists_insta #sideshow #davidlynch #davidlynchworld

A character that has cropped up a few times in my career is The Elephant Man. I remember the movie coming out and seeing the academy award were Chris Tucker and his makeup got a mention but no award. I believe it would be the recognition of that makeup and just how significant it was in the David Lynch movie that would prompt the Academy to create a makeup Academy award category the following year. That would be won by Rick Baker for American Werewolf In London. I managed to get a hold of Chris Tuckers address and corresponded with him for a couple of years before finally getting to meet him when I was 15. Seeing the bust he created of his makeup on John Hurt in person, as well as the copy he’d made of the plaster cast of the real Joseph Merrick was mind blowing to me. I eventually got to work for Chris in 1987. Fast forward 13years and I’m co-designing the makeup fx on “From Hell” directed by the wonderful Hughes Brothers; Alan and Albert. The producer is telling me that they thinking of dropping the scene with the Elephant Man as they assume it will be too costly…. Naturally I offer to create the makeup for a silly cheap price. There’s absolutely no way I’m passing up the opportunity to create this makeup full body. There’s no lines so they agree to let us cast the performer from our crew. The wonderful Ant Parker accepts the challenge. I sculpted the head and Ant and several others sculpt the body. We apply it on location in Prague at the Museum. It’s very fitting that we’re working in a Victorian era basement room full of Taxidermy animals, specimen jars and old books. It’s a 4am start and the makeup takes six hours. Ant spends the entire day filming in the makeup. 18 years later and I’m getting to do it all over again! for a new project. #skeletonheartart #millenniumfx #milleniumfx #fromhell #theelephantman #josephmerrick #hughesbrothers #foamlatex #Prostheticsmagazine #prostheticsevent #prostheticmakeup #specialeffectsmakeup #makeupfx #sfxmakeup #siliconeprosthetics #creative #filmprofessional #prosthetics #neillsmaterials #neillsmakeup #setlife #onset #makeup #polytek #makeupcourses #makeupfxcourses #gortonstudio

#nowwatching #theelephantman #davidlynch #1980 Dr. Frederic Treves (#AnthonyHopkins) discovers #JosephMerrick (#JohnHurt) in a #sideshow. Born with a congenital disorder, Merrick uses his disfigurement to earn a living as the "Elephant Man." Treves brings Merrick into his home, discovering that his rough exterior hides a refined soul, and that Merrick can teach the stodgy British upper class of the time a lesson about dignity. Merrick becomes the toast of London and charms a caring actress (Anne Bancroft) before his death at 27.
