Brad Schecter Brad Schecter has been involved with makeup effects for more than 20 years. He began learning about stage makeup as a child actor in community theatre. He became fascinated with special effects makeup, as many people did after seeing Michael Jackson's video for "Thriller." He started watching horror movies and was inspired by makeup artists such as Tom Savini ("Friday the 13th," "Day of the Dead"), and Academy Award winner Rick Baker ("An American Werewolf in London"). <p> At age 9, Brad began producing, directing, and acting in haunted houses every Halloween, where he turned all the neighborhood kids into zombies, monsters, and serial killers for lines of people around the block. At age 17, he raised over $1500 for the Torrance High School theatre department in a single weekend with a haunted house where he made up more than 250 students to scare the living daylights out of paying victims. He also did the makeup effects for "Operation Sober" for the City of Torrance.dkdk
