Makeup artist David Anderson is no stranger to sculpting and applying prosthetics. “Death Becomes Her,” “Batman,” “The Nutty Professor” are just some of the characters he’s had to apply makeup on.
When producer Kayla Foster called on Anderson to watch a 15-minute short “Your Monster,” he had thoughts. While Tommy Dewey’s performance was impressive as the titular Monster, the makeup was lacking. Anderson had honest first reactions for Foster, he says, “It was theatrical, the wig looked cheap and the makeup looked underwhelming.”
Foster, along with writer-director Caroline Lindy was turning the short into a feature-length film, which opened Friday in theaters.
