Your first thought might be that a computer dreamed the whole thing up. But formost of movie history, the scariest creatures on screen began as lumps of clay, buckets of liquid rubber, and a very patient artist with sculpting tools. Movie monsters are built the way you might build a science project: carefully, messily, and with a lot of trial and error. Behind every snarling beast is a team of people who treat goo and glue like fine art.  \nThat goo and glue starts with special-effects makeup, the oldest trick in the monster-making book. An artist first sculpts a face or claw out of clay, then makes a mould of it and fills the mould with latex or silicone to create a soft, flexible piece called a prosthetic. Those pieces get glued onto an actor and painted until fake skin looks disturbingly real. Here is the part that would test your patience: actors playing heavy monsters can sit in the makeup chair for four to six hours before filming even begins. Imagine waking before sunrise just to become a creature by lunchtime!  \nSitting still for hours is one thing, but some monsters cannot be worn at all, so filmmakers build them instead. Puppets and animatronics are mechanical creatures moved by rods, cables, or motors, sometimes operated by several people hiding just out of frame. In the 1975 movie Jaws, the shark was a giant animatronic the crew nicknamed \"Bruce,\" and it broke down so often that the director chose to hide it for much of the film. That accident made the movie scarier, because what you cannot see is often more frightening than what you can. Real, physical monsters like Bruce also give actors something solid to look at, which makes their fear feel genuine.  \nLong before animatronics, there was an even more painstaking method that turned still objects into living nightmares. It is called stopmotion, and it works by photographing a model one frame at a time, moving it a tiny bit between each shot. A pioneer named Ray Harryhausen spent much of the 1950s and 1960s bringing skeletons and mythical beasts to life this way, and a single minute of film could take him days. When the frames are played back quickly, the model appears to walk, roar, and swing a sword all on its own. It is like flipping through a stack of drawings, except each \"drawing\" is a real sculpture nudged forward by hand.  \nToday a monster can also be born entirely inside a computer, but the old handmade tricks refuse to disappear. Computer-generated creatures are drawn and animated digitally, and with motion capture an actor wears a suit dotted with sensors so a monster copies their every movement. Yet many filmmakers still mix real prosthetics and puppets with digital effects, because a creature you can touch on set often looks more believable than one added later. That is the surprising truth hiding behind the magic: the future of monsters still depends on clay, rubber, and human hands. So the next time a beast blinks at you from the screen, remember that someone probably sculpted that blink first.  \nHow Movie Monsters Are Made  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What is the central idea the whole passage develops?\u003Cbr>A.
