The video tutorial explains the process of creating a lifelike silicone mask in a special effects studio. It begins with preparing the model's face by applying a cap and Vaseline to protect hair and eyebrows. Silicone is then applied and allowed to dry, forming a mold. This mold is used to create a master mold, into which a silicone mixture is injected to form the final mask. The mask is detailed with makeup and hair to achieve a realistic appearance, capturing the model's likeness in a moment in time.
