Myers Mask Questions... - HalloweeN - 01-16-2005
When the costume designer of the first Halloween painted the screen used mask, did they actually do any shading or small details to the mask or just paint it appliance white, etc...?Also, The kirk masks back then looked like the hair was kind of a sandy blonde color. The mask in the film looked more of a brownish color...did they color the hair or is it just the dark lighting that makes it look a bit darker? I have always wondered about these questions...anyone have any answers?
Thanks,
Jon

the mask was all white and actually had light blue shading, not grey.

i dont know about the hair, but i also think spraypaint was used to paint the mask white.

I dont believe they rehaired it...i saw a website a while ago that said they just kinked it up a bit to make it look funky or somethin like that.

Maybe you\'re right. I remember on my halloween dvd that said what they did to the hair. I\'ll have to check it out in a little bit.

Here is all the info I found about it...This is what Tommy Lee Wallace said...
"So I pulled off the sideburns and cut the eyeholes bigger, and spray-painted it appliance white. And kinked up the hair. Kind of made it funky. We then auditioned the William Shatner mask. It sent a chill. From the second it appeared, it was "Oh shit! That\'s sick!" There\'s something demented about a guy who would put on a mask to look - normal. Everybody knows about it and how it looks. It really created an odd effect."
