He works on special makeup and sculptures for major films and series, including Toei, Disney Plus, and Netflix, as well as television commercials, outdoor advertising, events, and fashion projects, transcending the boundaries of genres and media.

A true animation legend, Takuya WADA can boast of having worked on some of the biggest titles in history. But as a jack-of-all-trades, he has also worked on films such as Ring and Ring 2!

His work is not limited to anime: after moving to the United States, he trained in make-up techniques and special effects. There, he had the opportunity to work on the film Guyver: Dark Hero. With the help of this new experience, he returned to Japan to work as a make-up art director on horror films. His debut was Masayuki Ochiai's Parasite Eve, based on the novel of the same name. Although the film's reception was lukewarm, it was an important one in the history of Japan's horror film boom of the 1990s and 2000s.

Takuya WADA's work on the film Ring in 1998 gave the audience nightmares. Takuya WADA was responsible for the ghost Sadako's terrifying appearance in Ring and its sequel Spiral, and Ring 2 the following year. His work on the specter's appearance helped bring this character into the horror pantheon

They propose a live making up!
