My little girl turned 1 today!! It has been a wild ride. Especially since this has been by far my busiest year for puppet work. Between building puppets, puppeteering, teaching classes, and taking care of my little lady I can't believe I had time to sleep. Oh yeah, most of the time I didn't.
However, I wouldn't pass up this wonderful time for anything. Happy Birthday Roxie!!!
Hey Everybody, Just finished building this puppet and thought you would all enjoy seeing it. I will try and shoot some video of him soon. Until then, enjoy the photos and please feel free to share to your friends. I would love to see some comments as well.
If you would like these puppets for your production of Little Shop of Horrors. I'm willing to sell them for the cost of materials. You also need to be in the Boston area or be willing to drive here.
$200 for the Audrey II #3 (this is the large one)
for an extra $150 you can buy Audrey II #2 (fake arm illusion) But, only if you take the #3.
Audrey II #3. Comes in 3 pieces
root legs(pants)
Plastic planter Pot(performer sits on it)
The pod(performer works from inside)
The puppet also has a puppeteerable tongue
You can see another photo of the Audrey II #2 here. The arm closest to the camera is fake!
Audrey II #2 Comes in 2 pieces
Plant, pot, and jcket are all one piece.
2nd piece of the illusion is the glove for the left hand. This makes both hands look the same.
We are headed back to Seattle to teach another class at the 3D Training Academy in July.
This class sold out fast last time so don't wait.
The class will focus on manipulation, lipsynch, monitor techniques, and more.
You will also have an opprotunity to purchase a puppet from me at the end of the class. The puppet in the picture was built for the class last December.
Have you always wanted a baby monster of your own?
Well, now is your chance! For just $10 a ticket you can get a chance to WIN a baby monster of your own in the color of your choice.
This is an amazing opprotunity for two reasons.
1.Your money will go to the National Puppetry Conference Alumni Scholarship fund. This money will then allow the amazing art form of puppetry to continue to grow for people who may not have the funds to go to the National Puppetry Conference.
2.You get a chance to win a BABY MONSTER!!
We have also added an extra incentive to try and help raise money. We will only be selling 100 tickets for each baby monster build.
What does that mean for you?
Well if you buy 100 tickets. Then you win!
If you buy 50 tickets. Then you have a 50% chance of winning.
If you buy 10 tickets. Then you have a 10% chance of winning.
So, the more you buy the better chance you have to win.
If you are interested in getting tickets here is how you do it.
