SYFY’S PROVOCATIVE NEW SERIES NAKED VEGAS JOURNEYS INTO THE IMAGINATIVE WORLD OF BODY PAINTING ART

 

SIX-PART DOCUSERIES PREMIERES TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29 AT 10PM

NEW YORK – August 27, 2013 – Syfy will transport viewers inside the provocative and imaginative world of body painting art – set amidst the fast-paced glitter of life on the Las Vegas Strip – in the new six-part docuseries Naked Vegas, premiering Tuesday, October 29 at 10PM (ET/PT).

 

When casinos, clubs, events, conventions, celebrities, magicians, fashion designers — or anyone in between — wants to throw a memorable opening, they call the Skin Team.

 

These five accomplished artists – including Nicholas “Nix” Herrera from Syfy’s hit series Face Off – comprise Las Vegas’ hottest and most innovative body painting company, creating amazing displays of artwork on naked female and male models.

 

Each hour-long episode of Naked Vegas will highlight the chemistry and creative skills of the artists’ different personalities as they collaborate on a major client job while navigating the economics of the business.

 

 

Just in time for Halloween, the first episode follows the Skin Team as they plan an over-the-top zombie-themed wedding at Eli Roth’s Goretorium at Planet Hollywood. Not only does the wedding couple want to stagger down the aisle in zombie body paint, but they want the entire wedding party painted to match the theme! Can the Team pull off this challenging make-up assignment — and convince the wedding party to go naked?

 

Future episodes will see the Team working with the legendary Penn & Teller in a magic act; painting a Playboy lingerie party; bringing a steampunk comic book artist’s characters to life; creating Pirates, and applying their extraordinary talents to models for the world famous dance crew Jabbawockeez.

 

Naked Vegas is a production of Gurney Productions. Executive producers are Deirdre Gurney and Scott Gurney.
