My interest in design, fabrication, and all things creepy began when I started dabbling in special effects makeup and sculpture in high school. I attended college for film and video production but continued to explore my interest in these areas. Since 2001 I have worked as an FX makeup artist and also designed and built costumes, props, set pieces, and animatronics for theatre and film productions, costume shops, and of course, haunted attractions.
After a few years of working as a tech crew member, and later as a costume and makeup designer in a haunted attraction, I had built up a backlog of ideas- for props, costumes, masks, and animatronics. After some research I found that no other companies were making items quite like the ones I had in mind. I decided to build them myself in order to make them available not only to the haunted attraction industry, but also to all fans of things creepy and original. Safari Anomalous was born.
My goal is to make Safari Anomalous the place you turn to when searching for those unique pieces that will make your production stand out. All of our original, limited edition items are handcrafted with the finest attention to detail by myself and my assistants in my Philadelphia studio. I do a great deal of custom work, so please do contact me if you like what you see but it isn't exactly what you need.
I am also available for FX makeup work for film, TV, theatre, events, etc. I am part of a network of talented FX artists and we can tackle projects of any scale. Please contact me for more information and to see portfolio samples.
On behalf of myself and my crew, thank you for taking the time to visit the site and explore our product line. We look forward to serving you for many seasons to come.
