Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Mark grew up in Hong Kong during the 1970s. He became interested in makeup after seeing Bride of Frankenstein (1935) starring Boris Karloff. In Hong Kong, Mark became friends with Karloff's widow Evelyn, who encouraged him to pursue makeup. He corresponded with John Chambers, makeup designer for Planet of the Apes (1968) during 1976-77. After moving to L.A., Chambers gave Mark his first contacts in the film business. He began his career in movies creating scar makeup on Didi Conn for the Academy Award winning Best Short Film Violet (1981) and as a lab assistant to Rick Baker on Videodrome (1983). Mark opened his own studio in 1985, designing and creating special makeup effects for numerous cult films of the 80s such as Evil Dead II (1987), A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985), A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987), From Beyond (1986) and Phantasm II (1988). He was a staff sculptor and makeup creator for Michael Westmore on Star Trek: Voyager (1995) for three years.

Turning to writing, Mark's first screenplay placed Semi-Finalist in the top 1% of the Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting competition, as well as Semi-Finalist in the Chesterfield (Paramount) Writers Competition. He has also been a Quarter-Finalist in the Nicholl and three other times made the top 10%. Three of Mark's scripts became Second Rounders in the Austin Film Festival's 2016 Screenplay Competition.
