Tim Burton's eagerly anticipated 3-D Version of Alice in Wonderland is now in Theaters everywhere. Starring Jonny Depp as the Mad Hatter and Helena Bonham Carter as the evil Red Queen. In order to bring Burton's unique vision to life many bizarre and outrageous makeup designs were needed. Oscar Winner Valli O Reilly took on the task as a Makeup Department Head and was joined by a small army of big name make up artists: Mike Smithson ( Key Prosthetic Makeup), Brad Look and Bill Corso. Both Look and Corso had given lectures at Cinema Makeup School in the past.
