I was able to see how I would look like when I get old, when my skin gets too much wrinkles and when my hair turns bald.
This is made possible through the art of prosthetics & make up in films. I did a film 8 years ago where my role is a school teacher who gets old very quickly because of the bad behavior of mischievous students. The film's title is Moron 5 & the Crying Lady which was commercially shown on cinemas in the Philippines in 2012. The transformation process of my prosthetics took 4 hours to turn me into an old man. So every time we had a shoot, I must come 4 hours earlier than my usual call time so that the make up artists can do my prosthetics & make up. But it was worth the wait. As actors, we have a commitment to do what it takes to nake our roles very convincing.
