How to Make Your Own Mask and Where to Buy One…just in case.


Listen Later

In Episode 10 of HaunTopic Radio we discuss the essentials for Molding Your Own Mask, Where to Get the Supplies, & Where to Buy One if you don’t want to spend the creativity & time to do it. Making your own mask for the first time can be a rewarding and learning experience & designing another one will be too. With a little cash and a few hours you can have a few solid molds that you can replicate many masks from and hand them out to your actors. Make each one different with a unique paint job, tears, half-masks, hair, scars, etc. Heck, you can even let the actors design their own. It’s a Haunt….things are supposed to be strange. What we discovered on this journey of mold making & mask vendors…..there is an endless supply out there! Information overload on how to make one and 100’s of stores selling them. So by no means is this ALL of the resources we found. We HIGHLY recommend buying from your local hobby stores & factories before buying online. But if you don’t have that luxury here is the next best thing. These are just a few from recommendations from our facebook friends and personal experiences. I had many more I wanted to list but I forced myself to stop. You’ll find videos, FREE E-Books, and How-To Guides to get you on the right track on making your own. We also provided a few mask vendors to check-out. Please leave your feedback in the comments below to let us know where you get your supplies and  have you ever made your own mask?

Ideas…. my brain, generally. Lots of video game inspirations, though.” “Damon Carson Best mask company for quality, wearablity, comfort, and movement and price! Hands down Zaggone Masks! Chicago Illinois!” “Chris Haynes Mehron is where we order our liquid latex (by the Gallon) from. It’s Hollywood quality like everything else they sell. Makes any other liquid latex we’ve tried look like watered down junk! Also get the little bottles of coagulated blood from them too.” “Allan Bennett CFX for silicone, Death Studios for latex.” “Jeff Davis For masks I think Death Studios makes the best quality. For supplies I shop at Smooth-On.com. They are not the cheapest but the quality and consistency are top notch. They also have a large selection of products and are always coming up with better and more...
