About
Xander Forterie

Special Effects Artist

XFFX studio is owned by Xander Forterie, special effects artist since 1992. I have been working for movies, television, theatre, events, museums and fine art for over 25 years.

I was born in 1972. My career started in 1989 at the Amsterdam Opera house where I was an apprentice for a year. There I learned to make wigs, theater style make-up and some special effects work. After that I started working for Sjoerd Didden, a special effects and wigs company in Rotterdam. I have worked for Sjoerd for several years with the occasional break to work on a theater show.

My interest has always been in effects and prosthetics but I started out focusing on all aspects of make-up, beauty, and wigs. Now I mainly do Special make-up related work but I am happy to have that knowledge.
