For scenes where Sebastian was outlined in smoke, water and blood, Kevin Bacon wore a latex body suit, face mask, contact lenses and a dental plate all of one color; green was used for blood, blue for smoke, and black for water. Visual effects supervisor Craig Hayes then replaced Bacon with a digital clone to form an outline of his performance. To make the clone appear more like Bacon, information about "every aspect" of his body was recorded and the entirety of his body, including his genitals, was scanned into a computer. This special-effect performance earned Hayes a nomination to an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects, but he lost it to Gladiator.
