Character aging
techniques
Simulated aging of actors and models is best accomplished through an extensive collection of specialized techniques. Typically, enhancement of existing wrinkles, addition of new wrinkles, hair loss and color changes, age spots, sagging skin and other symptoms of advancing age are applied. The overapplication of aging techniques is a common pitfall, and invariably leads to an overdone effect which distracts rather than contributes to the production.
These photos illustrate a JDMS thirty-year aging process before and after 
application of aging
effects. Careful attention to
small details - such as the
application of age artificial
spots and enhanced veins
to the character's hands
and arms - in addition to
broad techniques such as
bald capping and artificial
hair-laying resulted in a
highly convincing effect.
Judith Denny Makeup Services can provide equally professional and convincing
custom character-aging effects to your production.
