Sammm Agnew: Chasing Blood

Have you ever wondered what it takes to be a Make-Up and Special Effects Designer? Whether it’s creating flesh-eating zombies from Dawn of the Dead to the visceral creation of Kuato from Total Recall, what does it take to get into the mind-set of someone so close to pushing the human anatomy beyond reality?

To find out I visited my friend Sammm Agnew. She is a professional Make-Up and SFX Designer and has worked in the film, television, music and theatre industry for over 8 years. Her room is cluttered with numerous boxes of make-up, a closet full of wacky outfits and a laundry bag full of wigs.
