Erik Hillenbrink from Rob’s Prop Shop specializes in high-end SFX make-up, creature design, prosthetics and cinematic special effects. His work is at the intersection of sculpture, film and realistic character transformation.
In our artist studios, Erik will take visitors through the entire sculpting process: from anatomical construction and form study to refined texture, skin structure and expression.
He’ll show how a concept develops into a convincing creature design, from technical preparation to further production. The demonstrations showcase not only the artistic process, but also the technical precision required to truly bring a character to life.
This is the perfect chance to gain insight into material selection, workflow, detailing and professional finishing techniques used in film, theatre and entertainment productions.
