300 level students of Theatre and Media Arts (TMA) at Ambrose Alli University (AAU) have showcased their creativity with Special Effects (SFX) makeup.
The students reportedly displayed their creativity at a recent six-month Industrial Training (IT) defence at the school.
The IT defence featured jaw-dropping realistic wounds, ageing transformations and incredible creature effects.
They demonstrated SFX makeup skills in the movie industry crucial for cinematic illusions, gruesome horror scenes and futuristic sci-fi looks.
