Book Of Pooh and Flintstones

[Gentle Giant]

I think Henson Productions did a great job on Disney Channel's The Book of Pooh and on Dino in The Real life movie of The Flintsones

I tihk you're mistaken. Henson doesn't do the puppets in "The Book of Pooh" and it shows, while Henson perfers using hand puppets and suits, the pooh cast is comprised of 2 inch tall marionettes.

While Henson did alot of the effects in "The Flintstones" Dino was CG'd. I'm usre there was a puppet version of him, it' been a long time since I've seen that.

Book Of Pooh is created by Henson Productions just like Bear in the big blue house

 

[Gonzo]

the Pooh Marionettes are TWO INCHES tall? Are you serious?

 

[Gentle Giant]

it's my mistake, They look like muppets. Sorry

 

[Gentle Giant]

I just thought about it. the reason I thought Book of Pooh were muppets is because Mitch Kreigman worked on it and he does Bear too

Pooh is done by the Henson company. I believe they are Muppet-style puppets performed (the entire time) in front of an ultra-green backround (like the Gorgs garden in FR).

The voices are the cartoon voice actors, while the puppetry is done by the Henson puppeteers. I believe Peter Linz does Piglet.

They showed a quick behind-the-scenes of the show a few years back on Disney Channel.

I don't think Pooh is henson,it's Disney it's done with a very old version of puppeting and Dino was Cgi.I am sure Henson did some other things in it though.

I just meant that some of the Henson puppeteers work on the show. I don't know how involved Henson is in the corporate aspect of the show
