For five seasons, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele have inhabited a variety of characters both real and imagined on Key & Peele. They’ve played celebrities from Lil Wayne to Barack Obama and Martin Luther King. But more often, they’ve played eccentrics created from a strange, wonderful universe: football players with idiosyncratic names, ’80s workout stars, and the citizens of Negrotown. A great aid to their physical transformations has been their wigs, designed by Amanda Mofield, who received her second Emmy nomination in a row (Outstanding Hairstyling for a Multi-Camera Series or Special) this year for her work. “I’ve definitely worked harder on that show than any show I’ve been on,” Mofield said. “But it was so much fun that it was okay.” Vulture had Mofield choose the most memorable wigs from the show — her favorite, most difficult to pull off, and zaniest looks from the past five...

This is the second year for the Makeup and Hairstylists Guild joining the awards game, and they've been a welcome addition to the circuit. They spread their nods thin across a number of categories, but it's a good window into what this branch digs, for sure. This year, the only two films on the Academy's bake-off list of finalists that didn't garner any recognition were "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" and "Noah." Meaning "Foxcatcher," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "Guardians of the Galaxy," "Maleficent" and "The Theory of Everything" were each represented in one form or another. Meanwhile, "Guardians of the Galaxy" led with the most mentions at three, while "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "Interstellar" and "Into the Woods" each got a pair. As previously announced, Oscar-winning make-up artist Rick Baker and Emmy-nominated hair stylist Kathryn Blondell will receive the Guild's Lifetime Achievement Awards. Check out the full list of nominees below,...

Today was a busy day for some of the smaller guilds with the Visual Effects Society, the Cinema Audio Society, and the Makeup and Hairstylists Guilds all announcing their nominations for 2013.
First, we have the Ves, whose main category to look at is “Outstanding Visual Effects in a Visual Effects-Driven Feature Motion Picture,” where we find Gravity and four other nominees that are just going to have to be happy with the fact that they got nominated. This is perhaps the easiest category to call in the entirety of awards season, and I don’t mean just here, but for the Oscar as well (Last year’s winner, Life of Pi, easily took this category before going on to claim the Oscar). It’s true that films like The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and Star Trek Into Darkness had outstanding effects as well, but nothing even came close to the amazing,...
