It describes sculpting clay into a mould, pouring latex or silicone to form prosthetics, and applying layered makeup that can take hours. It also covers puppets and animatronics controlled by hidden operators, plus stop-motion models using many photos for one second of motion. Finally, it explains computer-generated monsters using motion capture with dots tracked on an actor’s suit.",{"@graph":14,"@context":72},[15,34,55],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/how-movie-monsters-are-made-solve-each-problem-using-the-passage/486702/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/how-movie-monsters-are-made-solve-each-problem-using-the-passage/486702.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"CatatanPagi","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-31","2026-09-30",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":33},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",{"@type":56,"mainEntity":57},"FAQPage",[58,64,68],{"name":59,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":61},"Where do most movie monsters begin their lives, according to the passage?","Question",{"text":62,"@type":63},"Most movie monsters begin in a bright, busy workshop with clay, rubber, and computers rather than in a dark cave.","Answer",{"name":65,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":66},"How does the passage explain how prosthetics are made?",{"text":67,"@type":63},"A sculptor shapes clay, makes a mould, and artists pour latex or silicone into the mould.

The truth is that most monsters begin their lives not in a dark cave, but in a bright, busy workshop full of clay, rubber, and computers. A team of artists spends weeks, sometimes months, dreaming up how a creature should look before a single scene is filmed. By the time you see the finished beast, dozens of people have already given it its skin, its eyes, and even the way it moves.  \nThat skin often starts as a lump of clay on an artist's table. A sculptor shapes the monster's face by hand, then covers the clay in liquid to make a mould, which is a hollow shape that copies every wrinkle and bump. Into that mould artists pour latex or silicone, two stretchy materials that feel a bit like a soft eraser or a gummy candy. Once the rubbery pieces harden, they become prosthetics, fake body parts that can be glued right onto a real actor's skin.  \nGluing on those prosthetics is why some actors spend more time getting ready than they do acting. Turning a person into a creature can take four hours or more in the makeup chair, with artists building up layers of foam, paint, and hair before the camera ever rolls. The actor sits still while the crew adds pointed ears, scaly cheeks, or a bumpy forehead piece by piece. When the day of filming ends, all of it has to be peeled off, and the next morning the long process begins again.  \nNot every monster hides a person inside it, though. Some are puppets and animatronics, machines packed with motors and cables that let a creature blink, snarl, and turn its head on command. Puppeteers hidden just out of frame pull levers and press buttons, almost like playing a giant video game with a living-looking beast. In stop-motion movies, artists take a different path entirely, snapping one photo of a small model, nudging it a tiny bit, and snapping again, so twentyfour photos can add up to a single second of movement.  \nToday many of the scariest creatures never exist in the real world at all. Instead, they are built inside computers, drawn and painted as threedimensional models that artists can pose from any angle. To make them move like something alive, an actor wears a suit covered in little dots, and cameras track those dots to copy the actor's every step in a process called motion capture. So the next time a monster roars in a theater, remember that its growl might really be an actor in a dotted suit, jumping  \naround a quiet room while a computer paints scales over every move.  \nHow Movie Monsters Are Made  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) According to the passage, where do most movie monsters begin their lives?\u003Cbr>A.
