SAG Awards 2018: How the Iconic Green Statue is Made

The video tutorial provides an in-depth look at the creation process of the Screen Actors Guild award. It begins with an introduction to the award's unique intent and artistic value. The process starts with creating a silicone rubber mold, followed by wax pouring and cleaning. The wax is then used to form a ceramic mold, which captures fine details. The tutorial continues with the bronze casting process, where the wax is eliminated, and molten bronze is poured. Final touches include polishing, welding, and chemical treatments to achieve the desired finish. The completed sculpture is then packaged for delivery to the awards ceremony.
