Topic Subject : Mask making

for a theater play i have been asked to make masks . Half a face ( like the phantom of the...)
How do i get the details not only on the outside of my mask but also on the inside so it fits snug. So far i am only formiliar with alginate casting , make a positve plaster and duplicating with a silicon mold to finish in either forton, or resin. I have done quite a bit of bellycasting, So i start by casting the face the way master dave thought me and then ...........what do i do. The faces will be a little distored on purpose with little surreal sculpting, so do i cast my first positive in clay?
Any tips or advice anyone?
