32 • THE ARTISAN SPRING 2025 Dylan's mustache was not in the credits but should have been, because that mustache was always trying to jump off his face. For Garrett Morris, we applied Afro tech sideburns made by Rob Pickens and Marissa hand-laid his mustache with Afro tech as well. Billy Preston had a very full and well-groomed beard, whereas Jon Batiste has a clean-shaven face. Marissa hand-laid an Afro tech beard and mustache with Pros-Aide. I had Jim Henson (Nicholas Braun), Andy Kaufman (also Nicholas Braun), George Carlin (Matthew Rhys), Gilda Radner (Ella Hunt), Laraine Newman (Emily Fairn), Tebet (Willem Defoe), Milton Berle (JK Simmons). I had the best experience collaborating with Nicholas Braun who played both Jim Henson and Andy Kaufman. For Jim Henson, I applied Bluebird old-age stipple around his eyes and forehead. Painted in fine lines/age spots and applied a custom lace beard made by Sasha Camacho. For Andy Kaufman, I applied three small transfer moles made by Vincent Van Dyke and a small unibrow piece also made by Sasha Camacho. Aer much discussion, we decided not to do prosthetics on Ella Hunt who played Gilda Radner and went with a traditional paint and powder character make-up instead. I shaved Ella's own eyebrows into the round, thin signature Gilda eyebrow shape. I decided to shave instead of pluck as I did not want to disturb the hair growth of her brows. I used the Sian Richard's Brio palette to lighten her skin tone by two shades and used washes of color to paint in her eyebags and under eye circles, changed the shape of her eyelids and nose. I also masked out her lips and redrew them much smaller and thinner. Leo Sakovitch was my key and was responsible for Lorne MAKE-UP Continued from page 31 Garrett Morris (Lamorne Morris ) Andy Kaufman (Nicholas Braun) L-R: Jane Curtin (Kim Matula), Laraine Newman (Emily Fairn), Lorne Michaels (Gabriel LaBelle), Rosie Shuster (Rachel Sennott), and John Belushi (Matt Wood)
