The Hobbit 'An Unexpected Journey': Hair & Make Up


With the success of Peter Jackson's trilogy of The Lord of the Rings where he depicted J.R.R Tolkien's characters of Elves and Dwarves of Middle Earth, the extraordinary creativity continues with the newly released film 'The Hobbit'. The hair and make-up crew, including Peter Swords King, Rick Findlater and Tami Lane give more emphasis on the dwarves this time round using extreme beard hair styles and layers of bulbous prosthetics. 

Below reveals a detailed sketch of the dwarf character 'Dori'. King's aim for his designs was to ensure that the audience is not to focused on the make-up that they miss the dialogue. He ensures that there is a 'fine balance' whilst avoiding 'distraction' from the character's purpose.
