This week's interview is with an old makeup effects pal of mine, master mold maker Rob Freitas! Rob has worked on TONS of amazing films and is regarded as one of the very best mold makers in the industry. We discuss: being a "monster kid", the influence of his grandfather, leaving Northern California to get into the FX biz, being mentored by Moto Hata, Working for Rob Bottin (on an all weekend gig), working for Rick Baker and much more! This was a really fun interview and I honestly forgot we were recording a few times- always a good indicator of great conversation.
Also a quick art life update and new subscribers.
Interview starts at around 7:51
