Isabelle Fuhrman

Actress

Isabelle broke into the film industry when she played the iconic character of Esther in Warner Brother's ORPHAN at the age of 10. Fuhrman was hailed by critics for what became known as, "one of the most momentous examples of acting from a child performer in years." She went on to win the role of Clove in The Hunger Games, the big-screen adaptation of Suzanne Collin's literary sensation of the same name. The Hunger Games went on to become one of the highest-grossing movies ever with over $407 million at the domestic box office.

Fuhrman balanced her acting career while starring in Showtime's Master's of Sex while working on numerous films as well attending the prestigious Buckley School in Los Angeles, CA, The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art Shakespeare & Contemporary courses, as well as Stanford University's EPGY OHS program until graduating in 2015.

Most recently Fuhrman was awarded the Best Actress in a US Narrative Feature at the 2021 Tribeca Film Festival for her "explosive" performance in Lauren Hadaway's directorial debut (which also won Best US Narrative Feature at Tribeca 2021) THE NOVICE. Isabelle's performance and the film have summoned critical acclaim and awards buzz.

Fuhrman started her own production company WHAT IF ? Productions in 2019 and has been writing and developing her own projects.

Doug Morrow

Serving the movie industry since 1991, I'm involved with almost every aspect of creative makeup. From beauty and character to puppets and prosthetics.

I credit my mentors for fueling this great passion and for teaching me the most important thing about movie makeup; learn to not only be a great character/prosthetic artist but to be a great beauty/straight makeup artist as well.

Character Illusions Inc. is a full-service makeup studio providing prosthetic character makeup creations, special makeup effects including blood effects, dummy heads and bodies.
