Beans


 So I thought I was done with sharing a new puppet every Saturday until next year. 

But Beans felt otherwise. 

And it's a good one to share. Beans is a new puppet for series 3 of "Animal Behavior". Yup, series 3! We're still releasing the episodes of series 2, but series 3 is being written and a few new puppets are being made. 

Also Beans is a puppet based on my brother, Michael.  I've tried making puppet of him in the past, but none ever felt right. And although it's not an exact likeness, for me this is perfect. 10 year old Michael.

Monday Song...

 


I wonder...  I have two legs, but do I have one to stand on? 
I think I do. 
As the frat boys say
Let's go!

Monday Song

 

Not a huge Led Zeppelin fan to be honest.
But the past couple weeks this song has hit hard.

Greg Gunderson

Greg...  Or is it Gary?
Mouth Puppet
This puppet is one I was building for literally years. It didn't take me years to build though. I'd start, stop, start, stop...  It would end up buried in bins and found, and so on and on. This fall I just sat at the table one day and said "Damn it. He needs to be finished."
Once done Nick saw him and immediately had a name and a story for it.  
I love when shit like that happens!

Plan 9 From Outer Space

When I moved back to CT from Florida in September of 2002 once of the first things Russ Werlebird said to me was "When are we gonna start making puppet movies?"
And pretty much right then we started.

One of our original ideas was to do a remake of "Plan 9 From Outer Space", as we were both Ed Wood fans and thought that would be a ton of fun to do.
Then everything else happened... And it has been an amazing amount of everything else. And Elmwood Productions has made some amazing things and even collected a few awards for it.
Last year I brought up how we never did get to make Plan 9. And Alex Sims challenged me. And soon after he handed a script for a remake/tribute/parody of Plan 9.... And we spent this summer shooting it.
Yup. After 22 years Elmwood Productions has released
GRAVEYARD GIL'S MIDNITE THRILLS PRESENTS:

PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE!
