Star Wars™ Emperor Palpatine Makeup Application - IFX

Star Wars™ Emperor Palpatine Makeup Application


Microsoft commissioned us to recreate a character similar to Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars™.  The character, played by actor Jack Frazier, represented the “evil’ software competitor.  The video produced was for an internal promotional video to celebrate the release of a new Microsoft software application.

To create the character, Tim first took a life cast of actor Jack Frasier. Tim then sculpted the prosthetics in clay on the life cast. He then made molds, and cast the foam latex pieces that were applied to the actor’s face. After the foam latex pieces were attached to Jack’s face, makeup was then applied to the foam latex pieces and blended into the actor’s skin.
