Great work!
Last year I read Jim Henson's biography and the amount of work that goes into every single muppet - usually two puppeteers, one to work the mouth/head and another to work the limbs. They not only peform with their arms over their arms over their heads, but used to do it in realtime, while watching themselves on a monitor. The amount of physicality involved is just staggering. One director gave Henson shit once for not doing a scene quickly enough; Henson made the director hold his arms overhead for ten minutes, just to give him an idea as to how much work was involved. |
