Discover Your Passion & Uncover Your Potential

Tyler believes if you have the drive, determination and creativity you may be pleasantly surprised with what you can do.

Most students have never picked up a brush or sculpting tool. Yet with coaching, they're mastering basic sculpting, molding and casting skills and bringing their concepts and characters to life.

Student Spotlight

Photography by Mandi Martini & Deb Lill

“I came into his studio with minimal skills in FX makeup. This didn’t stop Tyler a bit. He coached us through what seemed to be daunting tasks and by the end of the lessons, I felt accomplished and proud to show off the effects I had created... I owe my success to him.”
— Elizabeth

On-Location Training

 

Located within driving distance from New York city and Boston, the studio was designed to accommodate students learning skills in SFX Make-Up, sculpting, molding and casting. We also have application stations specifically lit for applying makeup and painting.

 

Because of its high ceilings and big windows, students use the studio to do a photoshoot as their final assignment for Tyler's advanced prosthetic class. When not used by students, the studio turns into Tyler's creative space where many of his commissioned work and  innovations come to life.
