I saw the commercial today!

Ok so I kind-of cringed at the manipulation on the monster, but I'm trying to be ok with it. It doesn't mean that I made bad puppets...It just means that most people don't understand that they need to point their hands downward and not open their hands so wide...right?

Tell me what you think!

Don Kruszka was the puppeteer for the snowman, which was *not* made by me. They grabbed people hanging around to manipulate the ones I made.

The puppets were great looking! It's too bad that the manipulation wasn't ideal for your guys, staceyrebecca. Your snowman, Tztz, was great with the gloves and the hockey hair! I just wonder why they wanted a snowman... wouldn't a Coyote be a more logical choice? I would connect a snowman to the Avelance more. In any case, it looked great and I hope all three puppets, and at least one puppeteer (Tztz), get more comercials!

(in sports chant fashion):
LET'S GO PUPPETS!
clap...clap...clap.clap.clap.

Great commercial. I see what you meant about some of the manipulation. I thought the characters were great. Nice work!:smile:
