The Sharp FX Advanced Prosthetics Makeup Effects Course
Australia’s most hands-on and comprehensive prosthetic makeup effects training
Sharp FX Pty Ltd ranks among Australia’s leading prosthetic, makeup, and creature FX studios. We’re also one of the few currently active studios offering hands-on training directly from working industry professionals.
Russell Sharp, a veteran special effects artist with over 22 years of experience, leads the course. His work includes Late Night with the Devil, The Hobbit Trilogy, Wolf Creek (TV Series), The Matrix Reloaded & Revolutions, Scooby-Doo, House of Wax, Ghost Rider, Queen of the Damned, and Anacondas, among others.
The Advanced Prosthetics Makeup Effects Course trains students in the core skills needed to build a career in special makeup effects. Students learn to sculpt, mold, cast, and apply multi-piece prosthetic makeups using both silicone and foam latex. Russell guides participants through every step of the creative process—from lifecasting to final application.
Students design and sculpt their own characters and transform them into professional-quality prosthetic makeups. This course suits aspiring makeup artists, cosplayers, creatives, hairdressers, and anyone looking to step into the world of special effects—no previous experience needed.
We’ve also launched the new Sharp FX Shop, where you’ll find a wide range of silicone and foam latex prosthetics. Course participants receive 10% off all shop purchases during the course and for 12 months after completing it, giving students affordable access to the tools they need to keep creating.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your skills, this 22-week course delivers the knowledge, hands-on experience, and professional edge to take your craft to the next level.
