As Fall conventions draw near, welcome to the wacky world of costuming with simple mask making and headdress designs in this introductory week-long workshop. We will utilize a basic non-prescription eyeglass frame to build character facial features upon that can be simply put on comfortably with accompanying headgear elements that can range anywhere from animal ears to fantasy elements.

DAY 1- Using workshop armature glasses students will begin to design character features using templates for Worbla, mattress foam and alternative support materials.

DAY 2-3- Work with soft foams, thermal plastics and mixed media to develop facial features and address structures. Think about final covering materials, colors etc

DAY 4 -Begin final surface approaches. Fabric? Plastics? Fur? or…?

DAY 5- Final completion of details and presentation.
