"The latex comes in a liquid form which we put in a blender until it rises in volume and becomes very soft," explains special makeup effects artist Barry Koper, the man charged with effecting Allen’s daily transformation. "We then inject the latex into a sealed mold and bake it. Once it’s set, we clean and paint it," Koper adds. The prosthetics are very delicate and a new one is required for each application. Approximately 60 of these facial prosthetics were used over the course of filming.
Once glued in place, the edges of the prepainted prosthetics were blended to match Allen’s adjacent skin tones and then Santa’s beard, eyebrows and wig, all made from a combination of human and yak hair, were applied.
"Christmas is about loving and giving, but it’s also about watching Tim Allen get into a fat suit and prosthetic makeup, underneath hot movie lights, so we could wager on how long it would take his face to melt," quip screenwriters Decter and Strauss.
