why no freddy krueger mask?!...

[@bryceharker7729]

How do we order a mask

[@nate-8888]

There so much like $750

[@WolfworxCreations1031]

I have one of these masks. They are fantastic! I highly recommend them.

[@ebneigh5191]

It is the joy in this guy's eyes. Doing a job he loves.

[@bulletsfordinner8307]

Yes 😊

[@johnmichael_]

Do what you love, you never work!

[@shardliveactionroleplaying1113]

I can only imagine the epic pranks that happen in this workshop.

[@declanwright1358]

It's just a prank bro.

[@CoolspyGaming]

It's just a social experiment dawg. I dun' nuthing wrong.

[@Joshua.Wheeler]

The guest guy looks like a comic book villain. That's so awesome because it fits his job description rather well

[@roltthehunter]

This man can talk, but that is not a horrible thing he seems passionate it's very inspiring.

[@tscarlsson]

He's on coke

[@Chinboy311]

Is it me or does it look like he's wearing a mask.

[@MoZz..]

i thought the same. kinda crazy

[@gsppuffer]

Same its the long chin and nose I think that makes it look like that

[@courtneyshock2792]

David Thornley what makes you think he has a wig?

[@Max1dollar]

I thought so too!

[@GammaLoo]

It looks like "the creeper" mask show at the beginning is based on him. Exaggerate the eyebrows and remove the all hair, that's him.

[@altermann1ify]

Wouldn't be so bad if silicone wasn't ridiculously expensive

[@kinnydoll7027]

IKR i love doing art like that but you said it!

[@goblin6662]

troy mccombs yeah I know to give +$500 for a mask is ridiculous but imagine if someone doesn't heard about this and u can scare him to hell if he is a pussy

[@boatwithwheels]

troy mccombs True, but with all the money and work put into a single mask, it's understandable. A profit has to be made.

[@Gerald5000]

As soon as I heard the company name I knew this was gonna be good. Their stuff is expensive but this video shows exactly why. Some great insight into what it takes, and it's nice to see them not shy about showing the whole process.

[@ironeo]

Its insane at how much knowledge one man has at mask making .... I was dumbfounded as he went on and on ... God Bless Him !

[@blackhagalaz]

Its awesome how George ( I think thats his name, it was really mumbled so I am not sure), enjoys showing the whole mask-workshop and production. We can feel how passionate he is about his work, and how proud he is. Thats just cool about many fx-artists I have seen so far... the passion for the job. Really cool video and great artists!

[@garethmrstigisback5149]

You dont see the other mask companys letting cameras in well done immortal masks for letting us in this is fantastic seeing the magic happen :-)

[@-aaliyah-8008]

Artists: They all try to be "unique" by doing what every artist does..

[@RawHeadRay]

There’s so much flexibility in these silicone masks that you could glue air bladders inside them and the effect reads really well

[@mjk0104]

That guy has a really cool chin.

[@TheWargod56]

Awesome masks, very reasonably priced too for the work that goes into them. Brilliant video!

[@duckpartain9462]

Bebop and Rocksteady masks... cool.

[@FireyTinkerHell]

Serious props to George and his team of ARTISTS!! These are AMAZING!!

[@lachlanbernon9695]

[@lachlanbernon9695]

whereistherockhammer there just to expensive for the average person in a set up at home or facility’s.If you improve the price it might bring your customer service up not saying that it doesn’t afford that much it’s not that good it’s just the average person can not afford these masses.iv worn one of your masks and they are exceptional good company keep it up🙂🙂🙂🙂

[@sharpshotefx]

Lachlan Bernon The price is fine. They're not supposed to be cheap, one time use Halloween masks, these are intended for productions, film projects, haunted houses, not to be worn once and forgotten about

[@antonisandriotis2204]

Immortal masks is a phenomenal company! I own 5 silicone masks from them! They are all so realistic! I just ordered 2 from them for Christmas 2022! I cannot wait to receive them because they look so terrifying and look so creepy!

[@TheAnnoyingThingOutdoors1]

nice. i guess the best mask for people with glasses would be an alien. would be fun to se a stop-motion-picture of a mask being made from scratch to final painting.

[@mattbranham1105]

This is a great example of craftsman value! Fantastic demonstrations of the product production. Well, done.!!

[@kitchenmaiden81]

Anyone else think "the creep" would work great as a satanic magician wearing a purple robe with gold edging? such as around the half cone style collar?

[@CoolspyGaming]

I was also thinking of a cone collar kind of thing. It'd probably be quite the timesaver to have these masks available for a movie production.

[@DH_Artist]

kitchenmaiden81 or like the comic book Joker but his veins kinda pop out and his skin is really crusty from being bleached. More of a realistic take on the Joker with the whole chemical origins

[@DenisRyan]

That last bit of the interview is surprisingly creepy and awesome! I expected it to look good, but it looks SPECTACULAR!

[@te9591]

Stan Winston studios has several prosthetic DVD type resources they're selling over the internet. It doesn't provide you with a client base, which is the most important aspect though.

[@madookamagooka743]

its cool to see a glimpse on hwo the masks are made. i ordered a berserker mask recently and i'm very exited for it to come in!

[@ashginsberg7472]

1Hawk2Hawks a lot of that sentence was incorrect.

[@MetallicaKing48]

Not to mention that have masks are more affordable than the full masks. I am myself ordered a half mask for the price of $290. I can definitely tell you that this material is well worth that price.

[@jtaylor6195]

I mean you see all the effort that goes into these right?

Yeah, but those are made to last years and they are realistic, difficult and expensive to make. They are not cheap. You see, they are even used in Hollywood, cause they are great.

[@jasongoestospace8415]

I Dino yeah but dont act like they arent high end i love these masks and i even plan on saving to get one

[@tiacool7978]

@@jasongoestospace8415 I guess it would depend on what you're using them for. If it's just for Halloween or a one time event, then yea. Pretty expensive. But if it's just one prop out of the many for a movie, then maybe not so much.

[@Seattlemike009]

Shoot 600$ but so much custom work goes into it

[@AlphasysNl]

I actually find that rather decent. Before I checked the website, I was thinking more in the lines of 1500-2000 bucks.

[@Seattlemike009]

Agree I was thinking up to 2000, and I think 600 is fair, and if you do it right I'm sure you can win at clubs prices for best costumes, but think about it can you put out 600$ right now to buy it? It's a lot

[@AlphasysNl]

Michael Grinshtat It is a lot, yeah. For the quality of the products, I would gladly pay it though.

[@mellodge]

Alphasys I've toyed with the idea of mask making and doing it for a living. I have the skill to do it. But it's which way to go - pile 'em high and sell 'em cheap to the casual halloween party goer, or make outstanding custom peices and sell a few to hardcore collectors for a high price. I'd find the latter un-fullfilling though. It's deciding which route is more lucrative.

[@thedon008]

mellodge I'm doing sculpts, busts and figures, and I really haven't figured out what would be the best way to do it. I can either make 1 cast, paint it and sell it for 2 grand (if I find a buyer) or make 15-30 casts, and maybe sell them as resin kits for 150 bucks each. The cost of the resin, shipping and all that stuff then comes into play.

enrique De La Cruz You are doing it wrong. Tell him to get a job.

[@mz13813]

lol l

[@kreaton3105]

Profit margin is extremely high as far as cost goes, but there's so much labor involved!! The silicone costs 10x as much as the latex pour does. If not more. My silicone mask I made, rock mold, no core (I roll cast after brushing in detail coat) and my cost in silicone was $120. Now, I used a different silicone than they did, one more for appliances but it worked. So add that to the labor and you've got a $500+ retail piece.

[@mellodge]

yup. First off silicone is crazy expensive, but it is the labor mainly. I make predator masks which are very expensive even for latex, because of the dreads especially, and the teeth. A good one will easily sell for £500 (about $700). I've had people who claim I should charge less because "your doing something you enjoy" which is rubbish. Why should they get my time and skill for nothing.

And size does fit most, I shaved my hair and beard and made it way easier to slip the mask on and off. I only have one but definitely plan on adding to the collection. They just added baby creatures to the catalog which are so creepy 🫣 . How likely would I be able to get a tour or meet n greet if I called ahead the next time visiting LA for vacation
