Makeup effects artist talks about the production of The Wyatt Sicks’ WWE RAW debut segment
After weeks of teases, Uncle Howdy’s “Wyatt Sicks” faction officially debuted on the June 17th 2024 edition of WWE RAW. Makeup effects artist and WWE collaborator Jason Baker, who worked on masks for Bray Wyatt in the past, spoke to The Metro about the segment’s production…
“Let me think of the best way to say this without getting in trouble. It was amazing being part of a night where WWE was firing on all cylinders. We had that whole thing set up in like, 15 minutes. Paul [Levesque, Triple H] came in earlier that day and was like, ‘This is what we should do.’ Everybody was like, ‘Yes, sir, we’re going to do it and it.’
The fraction of error is so – when you actually step back and think about it, that is insane, to do that long of a tracking shot with so many variables and so many people and so many things, and do it live in one take. We all know that he has that faith in us. So by proxy, everybody wants to do the best job that they can humanly possible, because having a boss that actually cares about you. You want to return that tenfold.”
