It describes how artists sculpt and mold fake monster faces, use flexible latex or silicone, and apply pieces while actors sit for hours. It then contrasts mechanical creature effects with the painstaking single-frame process of stop-motion, and finally shows how computers can animate monsters by mapping an actor’s movements through motion capture.",{"@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-worksheet-practice-questions/487970/",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-worksheet-practice-questions/487970.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"moss~","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},"What does the article mainly explain?","Question",{"text":62,"@type":63},"It mainly explains the different ways filmmakers create monsters for movies.","Answer",{"name":65,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":66},"What makes the shark in Jaws described in the article?",{"text":67,"@type":63},"The article says it was a giant animatronic the crew called Bruce.",{"name":69,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":70},"Why do filmmakers use stop-motion when making monsters?",{"text":71,"@type":63},"Stop-motion uses tiny model movements photographed frame by frame, so when played quickly the creature appears to move by itself, even though the process takes a very long time.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":74,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":76,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":78,"site_id":7},487970,1790865761,{"code":4,"msg":81,"data":82},"success",[83,87,91,94,99,104,109,114,119,122,126],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":84,"show_sort_weight":85,"slug":86},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":88,"show_sort_weight":89,"slug":90},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":92,"slug":93},70,"exam",{"id":95,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":100,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":105,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":110,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":111,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":113},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":118},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":117,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":121},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":123,"slug":125},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":127,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":129},19,"General","general",{"code":4,"msg":81,"data":131},{"doc_id":78,"user_id":132,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":33,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":33,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":105,"language":139,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":143,"read_time":144,"preview_page_count":4},962090895452,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_a8503ba1806abce46bf441b54a3ca4cd","Picture an actor sitting very still in a bright makeup room while an artist presses cool, gooey rubber onto their face. Bit by bit, a plain person turns into a wrinkled ogre with pointy ears and bumpy skin. This is the magic of movie monsters, and almost none of it is real! Behind every scary creature on screen is a team of clever people who build it piece by piece.  \nSome of those pieces start as fake skin called prosthetics. Artists first sculpt a monster face out of clay, then make a mold of it, like pouring gelatin  \ninto a Jell-O shape. Into that mold they pour latex or silicone, which are soft, stretchy rubbers that bend just like real skin. Actors sometimes sit in the makeup chair for four hours or more while these gooey pieces are glued on one at a time.  \nSitting still for hours is hard, so filmmakers found another way to bring monsters to life. They built puppets and animatronics, which are machines full of gears, wires, and tiny motors hidden inside. With the push of a button, a puppeteer can make a creature blink its eyes, snarl, or wiggle its ears. The shark in the movie Jaws from 1975 was a giant animatronic, and the crew nicknamed it Bruce!  \nMachines like Bruce were heavy and clunky, so artists dreamed up a lighter trick using tiny movements. In stop-motion, a small model is moved just a hair, photographed, moved again, and photographed once more. Play all those pictures fast and the model seems to walk, run, and roar on its own. A single second of a stop-motion movie can take 24 separate photos, so a monster might take weeks to move across a room!  \nToday, many of the wildest monsters aren't built at all but drawn inside computers. Using a trick called motion capture, an actor wears a suit covered in little dots, and cameras record every move they make. Computers then wrap a monster's body over those dots, so the creature moves exactly like a real person. The next time a giant beast stomps across the screen, remember there might be an actor in a dotted suit making every step!  \nHow Movie Monsters Are Made  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What does the article mainly explain?\u003Cbr>A.
