How We Started
SFX Mouldings is a family-run business founded by partners Kevin and Livia. Kevin is a fibrous plasterer by trade who started at a small company in Wandsworth before moving into the film industry. He has been working in the industry since 2009 on projects such as Star Wars, Peter Pan, Beauty & the Beast, Mission Impossible, The Kingsman, Game of Thrones, and many more, building complex film sets to the highest standards.
Because of the nature of the job and the materials used for mould making, as well as working with other departments, Kevin discovered his love for life casting.
This all started out as a hobby in his own time after work and between projects, but now it’s a full-time occupation he is so passionate about.
Livia and their daughter have been wonderful models for Kevin over the years sitting through hours of hand and face mouldings, feet and more, as well as family, and friends all helping him to perfect the skills and techniques required for first-class life casting. It wasn’t until a recent funeral after a friend’s sudden death that the idea of SFX Mouldings memorial casting was born.
We discussed how we would have loved to help his parents and siblings remember and cherish the memories of their son and brother in a lasting way, a memorial cast was something which would have achieved this. Unfortunately, it was too late for us to create this cast for them, as a result, we decided to include Memorial casting as part of SFX Mouldings so we could be there for other families and give them a lasting memory.
Where does Memorial Casting take place?
Memorial casting and end-of-life casting take place at a Mortuary, Hospice, Veterinary or a place chosen by the family. It will be done with the highest professionalism and with the utmost respect and care. Our products can be a wonderful source of comfort to you and your family.
