Corey Castellano
Makeup For Film and Television
IATSE Local 706 & IATSE Local 798
Corey’s life long fascination with make-up and
special make-up effects began in early childhood
when his father, a classic horror movie fan, would
tell him stories of Dracula, Frankenstein, the
Wolfman, and most importantly Lon Chaney “Man of a
Thousand Faces”. Things only got worse when a
perfect combination of events took place. Corey’s
dad took him to see a revival showing of the Lon
Chaney bio-pic, "Man of a Thousand Faces" and a few
short months later attended a drive-in showing of
Planet of the Apes. It was at that time Corey
decided that THAT was what he wanted to do. He made
his first mask by the age of ten (Based on Planet of
the Apes) and by age twelve he was happily scaring
and horrifying people at the hospital where his
mother worked as a nurse. His passion for make-up
continued to grow until he embraced a full fledged
career in make-up which continues to this day.
