We will have artists walk around to adjust anyone’s looks, but everyone should be coming to BG holding camera ready. Our artists won’t have the time, especially on bigger days to apply full faces on anyone. If you’re coming in with a repeated look and costume, please come as you did before the artist added or adjusted your look so they can do the same thing again for continuity purposes.
IF YOU ARE PLAYING A CHICAGO COP: **no facial piercings or jewelry can be shown, even earrings** MALES - Please have your hair cut short and clean.

This is non-negotiable and super important per the Warner Brothers legal team. Even if someone says they have their clearance forms on the day, it doesn’t matter, so if someone has a tat visible even with wardrobe, etc, we MUST cover or alter it.
