The lifecasting portion of the Dialogue Project has begun. Here are some recent pictures of the lifecasting process featuring Beth, one of the 51 models that will be featured on the Dialogue screens.

First the alginate mold layer is applied to the face
The the plaster outer mold is applied

The mold is then removed from the face, this is the inside of the mold
Plaster is then poured into the mold
