New York Comic-Con

[Melonpool]

I'll be in New York this weekend shooting stuff with the Mayberry puppet at the convention. If anyone's in the area and wants to come by, I'll be exhibiting at Booth #177.

Here's the info:

That's great! looks like sooooo much fun. I remember stupidscifi.com did the same thing with their puppets but they suddenly disappeared and vanished into no where.

can't wait to see you next videos

Thanks!

I'll have to say, I've learned a lot so far from watching the videos we've been shooting lately... like that Mayberry's focus is actually higher than I thought it was... and the mics are a necessity in a situation like this.

But, all in all, I can see some improvement... especially considering that I've never done off the cuff puppetry before. I guess those improv classes have been helping.

I'm watching this one from the NYCC right now - http://youtube.com/watch?v=tjU8boF3D-4

It's really funny. I could totally see a show built around this kind of "man in the street" stuff with Mayberry. Is that what you're working on?

For awhile. I'm building up my puppet skills (and those of the other Melonpool puppeteers) for a direct-to-video DVD project I want to do, based on an old graphic novel I never finished. These puppets will serve as the prototypes for the next batch for the film, so I want to test them out so I can fix those problems on the "hero" puppets.
