Class Projects: reshaping the human body

In the course i teach this semester (Decorative Arts for costume production graduate students), my students are about to finish their parasol projects [1], so i've been preparing for the final unit, called "Reshaping the Actor," in which we discuss body padding and other rigs for actor metamorphosis.

I pulled up several examples from our stock and put them onto forms to show the students, so i thought i'd share them here as well. ( four photos )
