Hello Everyone,
I am a student studying special effects makeup and currently undertaking a dissertation module entitled:-
Can 3D printing technology improve production issues and workflow in manufacturing animatronic components for the domestic and professional areas of the special effects industry as opposed to traditional production methodologies?
Please note that your name, e mail address and any responses given will not be shared with third parties.
Thanks guys.
