Last summer, actor Tristan Seith was transformed into German politician Peter Altmaier in a three-hour make-up session at Film Studios Babelsberg by make-up artists Claus Grüßner (ShapeshiftersFX) and Jenny Wieland (JWL Make-up & SFX) for the feature film “Die Getriebenen” (Merkel) using prosthetics, paint and hairpieces.
Update: Seith won the German Acting Award 2021 for his performance.
