How to Make Vulcan Ear Prosthetics!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Effects artist Frank Ippolito joins us once again for a make-up project tutorial and demonstration. For this year's WonderCon, Norm wanted to go as a Vulcan with authentic ear prosthetics. Using techniques we've shown before like lifecasting, sculpting, mold-making, and casting, Frank builds up a lifelike appliance and shows us how to apply it. Watching this video would be most logical!

Frank Ippolito Thx to you and Norm for this excellent video.
Is it somehow possible to get some of them made for myself as a Service..? of course paid.
@@vankrumelkeks6903 if you get an answer let me know cause i need an ear made of selicone for my deffected ear thank you
Norm is a well rounded nerd! I'm glad you're covering something Trek related to offset all of the Star Wars vids recently. :P
I like norm because he always understands and asks good questions
expert level sarcasm
Frank Ippolito episodes are always a joy to watch. You are a class act, my friend.
I love it when Frank does stuff. He makes it all look so easy.
I love when Frank comes by and does effects. There should be more videos of him working
That Dark Helmet is amazing. 21:48
Look how much happier Norm is without that loud mouth guy next to him interrupting him lmao
It is not just him!
It's not that norms better it's just his enthusiasm jumps out at you
Damn, as soon as he went out under those fluorescent lights, the gelatin became super transparent, more so than real ears. They looked so good outside and under the hotel/motel lights. DAMN YOU FLUORESCENCE! lol.
Way to go guys! As always, a joy to watch you all work! Thanks, Norm for being so thorough. Frank, your work is always amazing!
"Oh great, now I can make myself Vulcan ear....."
"You need to make a live cast of yourself."
Yeah, nope.
I appreciate the video, but I doubt there's a single person who made ears based on it.
They mention that you only really needed to make casts of your ears
I am currently working on Denobulan (Star Trek Enterprise) prosthetics and I did make a live cast of my face and ears. So there is at least on person (me) who does that for an authentic project like that.
You got some big ole ears, bud! The end result is over the top; really good.
I think Frank was still under the weather-- I believe the ears were sculpted to be more upright. As applied, they are more wolfie. Still a lovely job.
i really enjoy watching and learning from talented people
It looks totaly awesome! But is the final pease realy just gelatin? And if so can I also use vegatable gelatin?
2:09 someone is peeking in the window!!!!!
Ezekiel Lyons Yeah, it was Spock - coming to take back his ears.
I can't see lol!!
So Vulcans are space elves, nice
isEARTHman That or Space Jews.
CORRECTION: autistic space elves
You looked awesome! I can do the right eyebrow raise and the Vulcan salute.🖖
18:45 Great camera work, guys!
shouldve just went as sulu
shay campbell because he is asian?
nudl3Zz uhhh duhhh
+nudl3Zz You must be a rocket surgeon.
Somebody let out a fart 0:38 haha
kakakarper hahahahaha
LOL nice catch !
Lol I had to rewind it by a few seconds and put my speakers all the way up but I heard it and I died laughing lmao He was tapping the table to cover it up 😂🤣😂
Seeing the final product, you can understand why Frank mentioned that it's preferable to sculpt the ears on the full head casting to check for symmetry, proportion and scale.
Frank, I love the Atheist tee. Very subtle, I need one of those.
This is great! Tested should also do a head cast tutorial.
much better than Chaning Tatum's ears in Jupiter Ascending
Its crazy how back-lighting the ears breaks the illusion so quickly from the translucence.
Of course, actual ears can be translucent with strong enough back-lighting too, but in that case you see blood vessels and structure in the ear. I wonder if there's any shortcuts to emulate that.
I imagine in film, where they have control of the lighting, they just wouldn't back-light it.
Eyebrows on FLEEK🔥
Your missing the twist on the top..Yours looks like elf ears...
Check out Steve Neils ear creation he did Leonards ears for the 1st movie based on the classic series...
Wow that turned out great, nice work!
We love Frank!
I would love a podcast of just norm talking Star Trek to himself.
How did you do the texturing? Pretty important step.
Ever since this was posted I have been dying to make myself some elf ears but I can never afford the expensive materials used on tested. Today I was able to make a cast of my ear just by pressing some plastalina clay around my ear. Still figuring out what to fill it with. Hotglue made the plastalina melt so I am going to see if freezing the plastalina will help.
You make a great Vulcan. Man that Darkhelmet guy was like seeing Rick in the original day.
Shouldn't your skin have a green tint from the Vulcan blood. Or is that just the original series Spock?
Def should, but that'd probably mean a green to t for his whole skin so, I get it
Frank's a genius you look great
Fantastic job
Super cool 👌
I have that same uniform from Anovos! I guess I got lucky when I ordered it. I had no idea at the time they were such a scammer company. It’s been nearly five years and I STILL have not gotten my Kirk bomber jacket!
I really like that you test to how make things☺
21:49 they are a bit see through in the daylight, what up with that?
2:09, who’s the creeper that looked into the window? Lol
Wow! Super! 😁👂
Nice job.
Rip Spock. You were a half-descent actor who was quite frankly kinda overhyped. We will always remember you as the actor who potrayed Leonard Nimoy in Star wars. Ahh.... Sweet 90s.
Btw. First!
Frodo Baggins Any time I see a comment by a properly spelled fictional character, complete with accurate profile pic, it's nearly always a bad sign in terms of trolling...
You sir. Are wrong. Im a big fan of Star Wars.
Frodo Baggins *I'm Did you even go to school? Idiot!
Because every keyboard got the same keys on them.
Frodo Baggins Not a good excuse. Laughable excuse to be honest. And you were able to use it in other comments, so why not this time?
I love these guy's just "super simple " molds .not for me it's not .I would be in trouble with all of this
from a making of st 11 doc it looked like Quinto had silicon brows made and they put hair in those and placed the whole brow on Quinto
That Dark Helmet cosplayer was hilarious
What is that finger tool at 8:49 that you're using?
are you guys in los angeles?
how would you make the mirror side from the good ear
Seeing Mr. Sulu cosplaying as Spock was great, good job, John Cho! (lol jk)
Is it made of Vulcanised rubber?
Strar Trek to the top!
dude be creepin in the back 2:07
If you have to do a cast of your ear first, you would think that would be part of the instruction. People coming here for the first time don't know anything about that stuff. I don't know anything about that stuff. I don't know what to get, how to apply whatever has to be bought, or how to do it, Etc. Seems to me that's the initial most essential part of making the prop in the first place, so that should definitely be part of the included instruction.
Steve Neill has the molds of the ears Nimoy wore in Star Trek he has a RUclips channel check him out
what's the difference between using silicon vs gelatin ?
Oh norm
Where did Frank Ippolito get that t shirt? I want one.
What brand of glue that they use ??
thnks,,
Will nerds one day mature and get over Star Wars and Star Trek stuff.
I like Chavant but I learnt the clay they use at Aardman is Non-sulphur too. Newplast. So for something small and hobbyist for cosplayers, Newplast is pretty cheap.
Going to add a few more brands for Alcohol-based makeup: Mr Dashbo, Bluebird FX and Jordane Cosmetics.
Cool
nice shirt Frank
:)
so is there a way for those who dont have access to sylocone :( i dont even have much money and even the latex crap i have is so cheap its not even funny.
Norm Spok!
Norm was just featured in game theory's latest video as his Vulcan self
Who needs prosthetics when you have hundreds of rubber bands, an ear piercing and a hook on a wall?
16:20 looking a little elvish. Maybe a Link from Zelda
what event did you go to?
KG WonderCon
KG It was mentioned more than once in the video... not to mention the name is right there in the description
I like the Star Trek V ears better.
Can anyone explain the part of glue not sticking on his ears if he has been drinking a lot of alcohol. Or was that meant to be a joke ?
bobo Yeah, that was weird. Wish he'd said why. Dried out skin from dehydration? Dunno.
bobo The alcohol leeches out of your skin. You have to drink a LOT for it to become a problem. You know, like actors do.
Thanks!!andyfilms and *****
.....but.....Sulu wasn't a Vulcan?
Lol just kidding. I kinda of feel bad now.
can you make me an ear for my microtia ?????
frank should do a demo on making hobbit feet
but... I can't do this at home...
It looks like Frank's shirt says 'ATHEIST' if anyone is curious. Neat graphical design.
Anyone else notice the dude looking through the back window at 02:08
Vulcans have green blood
Looks like Sulu and Spock's love child.
"Star wa- Star Trek films"
Dwayne "The Spock" Johnson.
MR Kwok?
How do you make elf ears and Hobbit feet?
Can you teach us how to make LOTR elvish ears?
Kevin Uchiha It's the same method
nudl3Zz Huh, I never would have guessed... In that case then how about links ears from legend of zelda?
Rowan Doughty
Yeah wow, i wonder how to make links ears! Hmm, i wonder about eldar ears from warhammer 40k.
Kevin Uchiha Those are the cone headed dudes right? Do they even have ears?
Rowan Doughty
Yeap, they look exactly like Elves under their helmets
Actually this vid is more like talking about making the ears rather than actually how to make them!
Forced Wonder Woman lasso vs Forced mind meld? Who wins? This isn't sexual innuendo btw. I promise. Really.
Norm loves to ask how people feel about things and if they're happy with them!! hahah smh
T'Norm
so cute..;)
Does his shirt say atheist?
Norm, you look quite athletic -- too bad your uniform is so baggy.
I am another who cannot do the Vulcan salute. The reason why is because my ring finger can not move as far as the pinkie. WhenI attempt to do the Vulcan salute, the pinkie moves way far away, and the ring finger moves barely any.
do a cast of bruce jenner...
Anybody else hear a fart at 38 seconds??????
Ninja Sex Party.
They are to big
eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaars...
This guy is not helpful for the lamen
frank the weirdo????
