In addition to paving the way for everything from Tim Burton’s career to NBC’s “Passions,” the long-running supernatural soap opera led to Todd McIntosh‘s entire career in makeup — and even delayed his retirement.

It is so cool to hear about all the different movies, tv shows, and general productions Todd Mcintosh worked on. I think it's really cool to see how his knowledge and talents have also progressed over the years. A quote that stood out to me in this article was when he said that “all makeup is painting. All makeup is art. So it doesn’t matter if you’re doing old-age makeup or a vampire or glorious makeup on a woman. It’s all highlight, shadows, structure, and color.” I've realized overtime that makeup artistry gets very overlooked in comparison to other practices in production because it is at such a smaller scale. But makeup artistry is so much more difficult that it looks, not only is part painting, but the makeup artist has to work on a new canvas with new materials the majority of the time they work. Prosthetics are also particularly difficult and extremely finicky.
