Theodore Salisbury is a hair, makeup and prosthetics designer and SFX artist specializing in character, creature, makeup and prosthetic design. He is known for his work on Dune, Dune: Part Two, Marvel’s Moon Knight, and The Covenant, creating practical effects that help transform performers and build believable on-screen worlds.

Salisbury’s work sits at the intersection of design, fabrication, and performance, with a focus on creatures and character-driven practical effects. His experience across major film and television productions makes him particularly relevant to conversations around visual storytelling and the craft behind bringing characters to life.

At SACC, Salisbury will share insights into prosthetic and creature design, exploring the process from concept art to finished character and offering attendees a closer look at the techniques behind practical character creation.
