Transcript

00:01Miguel's getup is kind of a three-part process.

00:05So just on like a regular day on set when he's not in the full outfit,

00:09he always has like the bottom half,

00:11so it kind of looks like he's wearing like chimp pants

00:14and he has like little chimp shoes.

00:16It's very silly.

00:17I come in the morning and I do a warm-up, I do a physical warm-up,

00:22because otherwise I wouldn't be able to go through the day,

00:24get my physical warm-up done,

00:26then I go into the team of Millennium with Millennium

00:30and then I start getting all my layers,

00:32I got my underlayers first.

00:33And he'll have what we call his like jerkin on,

00:36which has poppers that connect the arms too

00:39and it's got a little like muscular back,

00:41just to change his human proportions a little bit.

00:44Then he'll have his eye makeup done,

00:46which is just to break up his own natural skin tone

00:50where his own human skin is seen through the mask.

00:53The suit is like hand-tied yak hair onto the fabric.

00:57It's literally like wearing a fur coat, so it's very, very warm.

01:00But that's not the...

01:02The really, really hot bit is the hands,

01:05which are non-breathable silicone.

01:07Silicone is a great insulator,

01:09which is exactly what you need on a really hot set.

01:11And non-breathable, so all of the sweat collect in here.

01:14Oh, why don't we do that?

01:15He always wants these on as late as possible,

01:17just because they're very, very uncomfortable to wear

01:19and particularly gets very, very warm in the studio.

01:21And then the head is the last piece that goes on

01:23because that is a full animatronic headpiece.

01:26So when he has that on, he can't even hear,

01:29you know, if I'm standing in front of him,

01:30he can't even hear what I'm saying

01:31because there's so many different mechanics going off

01:34that basically control his face.

01:36take a look at the office.

01:37And take a look at both back of them.

01:37But if you have a good image of both in the studio,

01:39you probably walk over the lake

01:39And we have that extra space placed in it.
