Training - Moulage Sciences & Training

MST Moulage Techniques Training (MTT) courses are designed to teach trainees current Moulage techniques and materials implemented in existing medical training and special effects industries. Training exercises range from moulage application to making your own prosthetics and props. Classes are taught on-site at MST's Orlando research & development facility. Our Fundamentals of Moulage Course can be taught off-site when there are 5 or more trainees: travel fees apply, contact us for a quote.

Training Goal: Trainees will learn about products, techniques, and effects currently used in the special effects industry and in support of training exercises for medical, public safety and military organizations around the world. MST prosthetics and products will be incorporated into the training as well. We focus on silicone as our primary material due to it's safety and longevity for moulage.

Course Length: Class times range from 6-7 hours depending on the complexity of the products demonstrated. Introduction to Molding/Casting, Life Casting and Airbrush classes must be taught at MST's Orlando research & development facility due to volume & complexity of products used.

Custom Training

In addition to the above mentioned courses, MST can create a custom-made course around your training needs. As we work mainly with silicones, we can create custom courses focused on the medium of your choice, such as wax, latex or gelatin.

MST also has the ability to offer more advanced courses, such as life casting or advanced mold making. We can also set up phone or site consultations to help with all of your training questions and requirements.
