I always wanted to make aliens that looked like '60s aliens.
I can't tell you how many people would say to me as a teenager, 'Why don't you grow up and start thinking about getting a real job?'
I do a lot of CG stuff for fun.
I do fat people and these makeups are really hard to do, but I want to make monster movies.
I don't want to be doing movies that I don't want to do. They take so much out of you.
I enjoy doing digital work. I enjoy sculpting digitally. I've had my digital sculptures on covers of the top digital magazines.
I feel like I have to top myself every film I do, and it gets hard.
I find it kind of disturbing when people cheer when someone just gets stabbed brutally.
I have a job that I truly love, and an enormous crew of people that can do things better than I can!
I have always tried to stay current.
I love making scary faces, that's just how I grew up.
I used to have to save my allowances to buy a quart of rubber to make a mask, and it's how I spent all my free time.
I wanted to make sure to always stay current, try to find new material and stay with the modern techniques.
I was born in 1950 and watched science fiction and horror movies on TV and was always really fascinated by them.
I'm not really listed anywhere; I don't know how people find me!
When you're working on a movie you always hope that people will go for it and enjoy what you're doing.
The problem I have with schools is, people are taught, 'This is how you do this.' They're not taught about why you do this.
It's fun doing new things.
There are so many decisions in making a movie.
It's a funny relationship that makeup artists have. I always feel kind of like a dentist. People look at me and think of pain.
