I have received some correspondence from people that have been visiting the site, that they would like to see more behind the scenes stuff, how the puppets and sets will be constructed and how we plan on working things so that the faces of the puppets show more emotion than normally seen from a stop motion animated character.
What we plan on doing is showing all aspects of this process, from start to finish including photographs of the puppet building and set building as it goes along. We will be more than happy to share some of these secrets with the world, when we get to that point in the production, which is still quite a ways off.
We are hoping to start voice over recording sometime in February of next year, with sets hopefully being constructed while the film's sound track is worked over and made to sound oh so clean and crisp. At the same time, the puppets will be in the construction phase for use in front of the camera.
Between now and then we will be showing the creation of the characters from the drawing board, to the hands of sculptors as they turn lumps of clay into living breathing creatures, and onto the molding process where custom built armatures are built then covered in various materials to give us the final puppets. As many of you do know, this process is a long slow complex one that takes monthes to finish up, before we can ever step in front of a camera to start principal shooting.
Just wanted to drop a little update here for all of you, and to let you know what would be coming in the near future. Thanks for stopping by, and for all of the support.
