About SFX & Prosthetic Transformations
Forget dry theory classes. Our SFX program is entirely hands-on, meaning you will actually handle sculpting tools, mix silicone, and apply foam latex prosthetics. By the end of this module, you will not just know how it is done. You will have a portfolio of gory, hyper-realistic transformations to prove you can handle high-stakes film sets.
Our SFX and Prosthetic Transformations course is designed to take you from a curious enthusiast to an industry-ready professional. We strip away the fluff to focus on the technical craft required for the Indian film industry.
