Vic Romano's Weekly Creative Muppet Visuals

[travellingpat]

Yeah SB was just on Ellen a couple of days ago and she was talking about her marraige to JJ

Hmmm...did I hear an understatement drop to the ground there?

<giggles> About the time spending on MSN or the raving? Both are true...

great work

 

[Faylo]

HAHA! I love it. The "Stripes Are In" thing made my day, because I keep seeing more and more people in my school wearing stripes. I guess Bert is the new header of fashion. Great work!

The Muppet*eers

There are lots of puppeteers who deserve their recognition for the tremendous amount of work and creativity they've provided our loveable Muppets, but today's visual focuses on the eight key puppeteers most influential to The Muppet Show. This visual went through quite a bit of refinement before getting to where it is, but it's a fun look at an amalgam of Kathy Mullen, Richard Hunt, Dave Goelz, Jim Henson, Steve Whitmire, Jerry Nelson, Frank Oz and Louise Gold and some of their alter egos.

Muppet Central Morsels
Because VRWCMV has watchers at Deviant Art but are created for Muppet Central, here are some tidbits exclusive to MC that will be posted with every visual!

• An initial version of what this visual originally started out as will be appearing with several other "unfinished" or "rejected" ideas on December 8th in "Lost Visuals - Volume 1".
• This concept was originally fleshed out as one of the very first Weekly Creative Muppet Visuals, but only came to fruition recently.
• The head shot of Louise Gold is one of the only shots available, however; it was originally black and white and had to be painstakingly "colorized" for this visual.​

AUGGGGG!!!! My work is BLOCKING the website so I can't view the visual! It didn't happen last week!!! So, I will have to wait until later today to see what I'm sure will be another fabulous visual. But I just thought as one of your most avid fans, I'd at least let you know so you weren't sitting there thinking "oh, she didn't like it, she didn't comment!" The frustrations of Symantec. Grrrr. I'll be back later and I will let you know how much I like it. Sigh.

 

[Beauregard]

Gaaah! It's awesome! First off, kudos for the coloured Louise Gold! It looks truely fabulous! As for the best, Frank Oz looks perfectly stiff as Bert, Jerry looks great as Gobo and Steve always looks great so...wait, what?

I love the way you've cut out Richard's hair and Gobo's hand.

Good interaction between everyone too!

[D'Snowth]

Awesome job Vic, possibly the best visual yet! (and yes I finally caught up with the others!)

 

[Erine81981]
