Hey all, Check out the puppets that Hoggworks built: http://www.nohasslerewards.ca/index_puppets.php The puppet designs were by me, and the building was by myself and Maddy, and the outfits were all Maddy (she did a kick-butt job). They turned out really well, and one of the performers was...

Hey all, I'm proud to announce the release of the super-awesome-double-long season finale of dotBoom, "Badges of Mediocrity." "It's all been leading to this! Lives will be changed! People will leave the company! Hearts will be broken! Jokes will be made! And nothing at dotBoom will ever be the...

Just a reminder: you've got a little over a day to make any bids on the four puppets. They're pretty danged cool, I think.

Thanks for the responses. The pupils probably won't be on the side; I was trying to think of a convenient way to have the pupil move around, but haven't come up with anything tremendously clever (owing to the strange shape of the eyes). My thought with the eyes closing would be something...

Initial concept for a possible interview show I'll be doing. He's meant to be the young, inexperienced guy who is given interviews to do, but screws them up in hilarious ways. http://www.hoggworks.com/images/fitc_puppet_concept_1.jpg What do you think?

Thanks, Tom. Mandy.com's the kind of site I'm looking for; do you, or does anybody else, know of any others?

Hey all, Does anybody know of any online directories of puppeteers and puppet-builders, where a person making something (tv/web/film/etc) would go when looking to find such a thing? I just finished my first big for-pay puppet-building/puppeteering thing, and I want to get some momentum going. I...

Great work. Outstanding puppet!

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone knows of any good puppeteering schools/classes roundabout Toronto (I'm in Kitchener, so anywhere in the area would work). I'm curious to know what's available, and I'm looking at improving my skills a bit. Thanks, Brian

Excellent work, as ever, Kanja!

Hey all, Episode 27, "The Mommy Daddy Button," is now online. I hope you'll check it out. 'Tis about: "Only one episode remains before the season finale of dotBoom, the hit show that nobody's watching! Jason, needing resolution with his father, travels to the other side of the country to...

Hey all, Eschewing my growing trend of increasing the time between episodes, I'm happy to report that there's another episode of the show up! I'm pretty happy with how it came out, and I think it has some very nice character beats in it. Many thanks to my fine crew, and the special...

Hey all, I'm pleased to report that episode 25, "Lionfruit," is now online. It's another one of our visual departure episodes, but I think you'll like it. "Boss finds out he has a son, Newton seeks compensation for the anti-porn camp fiasco, and Diab, well ... Diab has some interesting...
