Jack Pierce Make up effects archive at visual effects archive page

Few people outside of the make up effects industry know the name Jack Pierce but there can be no doubt that the characters he helped create are recognized by millions. For years, Pierce served as Universal studios on board make up effects designer and innovator. He helped create the visual look for  such classic characters as Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Bride of Frankenstein and the Wolf man to name just a few. It would be an understatement to say these were simply iconic characters. They were more than that. Pierce's art made them live and breath. A visual effects artist? You bet! Many people have debated my inclusion of make up effects in the visual effects category but it clearly fits the definition. All good effects merge the art with the artist(the actors) and Pierce's work is a timeless, classic example of that ideology.
