Crafty Tuesday: For My Next Trick
Apr. 22nd, 2014 07:42 amI have come up with a sketch or two for the Dragon Con puppet slam.
The Doctor Who puppets are staying in their trunk but I do have a sketch that I am going to do someday with them.
No, I am insane enough that I am making an Avengers set with a couple of SHIELD Agents in there for good measure. So that’s at least 10 puppets with some pretty complicated costumes.
Plus props and set pieces. Plus the soundtrack which I will be asking for help with.
If I can work the sketch right, I’ll need myself and 3 other puppeteers but it is probably closer to 4 or 5 depending on how many puppets I need on stage at the same time and the number that can have dead arms (rods just hanging down).
I have to figure out how I am doing the Hulk. I have about three different ways in my head but I have to sort it out to how it is going to be done and operated.
I think this year I am going to photo-essay the build for this and the other things for Dragon Con.
I have some doll ideas for my art show table and I think I will be photographing them as well.
It is 129 days to DragonCon so I have 120 days to pull this all off.
Let’s see what I can get done in that time.
I am grateful for motivation that is positive motivation.
