John Chambers is a makeup artist that brought us into an entire world with his gorgeous make-up work in Planet of the Apes (1947). This was a whole new beginning for the movie franchise and would lead to other movies years later, using the same ideas and forms that Chambers did.
Chambers was also known for creating Spock’s famous pointy ears in Star Trek (1966).
