I am a huge robotics and animatronics lover. To see and understand how the masks were made for the showbiz cast is quite interesting. It's also cool to know you have worked with Aaron. Anyway, I hope you have a good day, and keep up the good work.

Very interesting, I've always wondered why Fatz lost some teeth over the years, but figured it was done purposely in a version change or something. I'm so glad Aaron saved the masters. That is a beautifuly detailed Beach Bear.
@electricwombat59673 жыл бұрын
Very interesting! I used to always wonder how they made so many molds and how they prevented the masks from shrinking when they made copies. Now I know! Also, it’s amazing Beach Bear only has one mask version. When he has all the detail back you can really tell.

I just came into a mitzi mozzarella mask that was never taken off of the mold. It is actually fused to the mold. What am I supposed to do? Funnily enough, the latex mask was painted when it was already on the mold and it just seems like no one ever bothered to take it off. It's in fabulous condition!!!! But it's fused to the mold.... Any advice?

@@40GamesAG Also, Aaron had no part in the destruction of the molds, he is very good about keeping everything that could possibly be used in the future. It is because of him that we even still have molds (and masters). At one time someone went to throw molds out and Aaron saved them and brought them back into the building. People don’t understand that since Aaron is the founder of CEI, like the founder of another company, the work to produce things is delegated out to other people. Someone is in charge of mask masking, another in charge of welding. Aaron did not make masks until the early 2000s. Someone else was in charge of the molds and masks up until that point. When Aaron started making them, he was left with was whatever the previous person had decided to keep. Aaron has never destroyed or thrown out a mold.

How do I make a plaster master mold for masks
@AnimatronicsProductions1.9.9.3 Жыл бұрын
To start, you make a clay sculpture of what you want to mold. Once that's done, the plaster comes in. You cover the clay sculpture with the plaster, then once the plaster is hard, scrape out the clay. (You shouldn't need the clay anymore). Then, you use a paint brush, and brush on latex into the mold (in layers) and let it dry throughout each layer. Once the mask is at your desired thickness, and the latex is fully dry, carefully pull out of the mold, and done! (That's what I do).
