Here's one for all you cool ghouls. Last October I hosted a zombie makeup workshop at my library. Yes, it was a total mess but my kids loved every second of it and I highly recommend it (that is if you are not squeamish--because the results are pretty gnarly). I invited Jason Alvino's fantastic special effects makeup team Wicked EFX of Brooklyn, NY to teach the horror makeup workshop in special effects techniques. They supplied the expertise and we supplied all the necessary ingredients (Karo syrup, chocolate, syrup, face paint, cereal, etc). After my teens watched the Wicked EFX team's tutorial, they grabbed a partner and zombiefied each other. The results were amazing and the kids really had a blast. To locate local special effects artists in your area check out, ProductionHub and search "special effects" and your city.
***Oh yeah! Don't forget to get your teen's parents to sign a medical release***
