SYFY’s hit reality program Face Off which is about special effects make up artists who are competing for a 100,000 dollar prize and more importantly exposure and recognition will return to the SYFY line up for a second season on January 11th 2012 at 10 PM Eastern – 11 PM Central . The contestants are put through a series of challenges such as full body painting, creature design , horror villains , and what ever else that is thrown their way. They will be tested and judged on how well they use prosthetics, 3-D design, sculpting, eye enhancers, casting and molding. The judges of Face Off look the same as season 1. They are 3 time Academy Award winner Ve Neill (Pirates of the Caribbean, Edward Scissorhands) , Glenn Hetrick (Heroes,Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X-Files) , and Patrick Tatopoulos (Underworld, Independence Day,Resident Evil: Extinction)
Right now they are in the middle of a casting call so no real line up of contestants has been made. SYFY has posted some of the audition videos up on the Face Off page . I got to watch some of them and they were pretty insane. If you are interested or know someone here is the link for the SYFY casting call web page . But you got to hurry it only is until November 22nd.
