So for Christmas, my sister-in-law gave me a whole slew of back-issues of the PofA newsletter/magazine. In one of them from sometime in the early 1970's was what I can only imagine was an insert for the holidays from Carroll Spinney. Its a off-white paper with red printing featuring his...

Okay, this was started in another thread, but I think I want to take it to another so its a separate thing. I got a PM from someone asking about how you go about making a proper deal for your services. Now, I do this every day for the prop and effects company I run here in minneapolis. I...

Yes, folks, we have been pirated and posted to the internet. I figured it was only a matter of time. I'll be sending a "take it down" email to the perpetrator in the next day or so. If you want to see TVTV, I'd suggest you run to the site NOW and watch it...

Sat witha group of folks at a local small horrro fiction convention (ARCANA 2007) and watched the premiere of TVTV on loval television. I'm happy to report that it went well and was enjoyed by the small gathering in the room. (How others viewed it was out of my reach)! -Gordon

Hey guys, I just listed two sets of Muppet colorforms as a lot on eBay. AS well as a couple other things: a tray puzzle of GROVER and Roosevelt Franklin and a REALLY COOL ITC Entertainment Press Book... not just a simple little folder with some photos, but a HUGE BOOK with a VERY LARGE Fold...

Hey everyone, As you may or may not know, I am in the middle of finishing up the ilot episode for a new tv series called Transylvania Television. You can read more about it at www.transylvania-tv.com, but the basic idea is that it will have lots of grown-up parody style humor. Really...

Just wanted to post a very VERY tardy THANK YOU to Spencer Lott for showing up and putting ALL of the Transylvania Television puppeteers through their paces in an afternoon workshop! Spencer's experience and practice with manipulating puppets on screen was of immeasurable help to everyone...

Well it was quite a blast, folks. The National Puppeteers Of America Festival was held in St.Paul, MN this past week. Five eighteen-hour days of workshops, performances by some of the world's great puppeteers and puppet troupes, and many hours of glad-handing and schmoozing with the...

Hey all, Just to report: I attended the PofA Festival and was most gratified to have the opportunity to talk with Telly and Snuffalupagus puppeteer Martin Robinson. I was lucky enough to converse with him for about 45 minutes. You can pretty much guess, he's a great guy. Very well spoken...
