    I used a screenshot from Let My Puppets Come as Diab's calendar photo in a few episodes of dotBoom. :)

    Inside Hoggworks: Building Stephen Colbert

    Thanks, I'm thinking the idea will go over pretty well, too. Thanks for the compliments regarding the eyebrow. I'm actually planning to make the eyebrow movable, so I can do a close-up of him and have him do that characteristic look. As far as the ears go, I have them built, actually, but...

    Inside Hoggworks: Building Stephen Colbert

    Hey all, I just put up episode 2.5 of Inside Hoggworks, if you're interested. It's a short one, and I spend a few minutes chatting about the promotional efforts I'm undertaking for dotBoom 2.0, specifically "The Stephen Colbert Puppet Challenge." I hope you like it...

    Stubble?

    Good call. Thanks!

    Female Puppeteers in the GTA?

    Hey all, I'm continually trying to expand my cast for dotBoom 2.0 (and other projects), and I'd love to find female puppeteers in either the K-W area or the GTA. Basically close enough to Kitchener for it to be commutable once or twice a month. In addition to knowing how to work a puppet, I'm...

    Stubble?

    Maybe a combination of the painting and the tiny particles. Hmm. Thanks for the responses, everybody, it's much appreciated.

    Stubble?

    That's true. I'm liking the airbrush idea the most, though the sharpie is the least labor-intensive, certainly.

    Stubble?

    Airbrushing would work, but I don't, at present, have the equipment (not the skills) for it. Hmm. The second color of fabric could work, but it's a pretty light bit of stubble I'm going for. The specific look I'm going for is this...

    Stubble?

    Hey all, I find myself wondering how to make stubble. Now, the beard and the moustache are no problem, as I can just stick a swatch of fabric on it, but I don't think that'll work in this case, and I wonder if anyone can recommend any techniques for it, short of threading the puppet's face with...

    Stop the Canadian DMCA, says a puppet!

    I realize that it's only really puppet-related by virtue of it featuring a puppet, but I hope you'll forgive me. :)

    Stop the Canadian DMCA, says a puppet!

    Hey all, This is a video I did about the Canadian DMCA that's been proposed (again). It's a rare thing that I do something with actual content, I know, but there you are. The video's here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qehI7WDyFNc And if you're a digg member, won't you digg it? I'm pretty...

    Building a puppet studio

    Thanks, Onath. I'm hoping the walls work out; it'll take me a couple months to get around to building them, but I'm looking forward to it. Part 2 will hopefully be shorter; I'm still trying to find the pace of the thing.

    Beginner puppet - comments welcome!

    Great work!

    Building a puppet studio

    Hey all, I just put up episode 2 of "Inside Hoggworks." Most of it is a discussion of the new ways I'm planning on building sets for my shows; I'd love to get feedback on my ideas. http://inside.hoggworks.com/ Thanks!

    Adult puppetry

    I don't do any live puppetry (though it sounds like fun), but dotBoom (www.dotboom.ca) is an adult-themed puppet show.

    Looking for volunteers

    Hey all, I'm slowly beginning the ramp-up for season two of dotBoom, and as part of that I'm hoping to expand the size of the crew. I put an entry on the blog(s) about it, so if you're interested, and in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, or near enough to get there from time to time, check out the...
