View Full Version : My puppetry film/pitch project...

Well guys, I've been working on a small pitch project on and off for about a year now. I got slightly disenchanted when nothing seemed to be working in the editing process (largely due to the green screening techniques) but I had a breakthrough about a month ago and have finally managed to put a rough cut of part of the opening scene together. Anyway, what I'm saying is, I'd love for you guys to take a look, let me know what you think and all that. I know the sound needs work (the voices are going to have to be rerecorded) and some of the animations need to be tweaked (largely the monster), but as I said, it's a rough slice, so take a gander!

Peace

It looks pretty cool... I for one don't care for the green screen backgrounds, with puppetry I think anything less than real sets looks too artificial and lifeless.

I feel exactly the same, but on my budget (and with it being more of a pitch reel), it's what I'm working with.

I like it. The puppets remind me of a Jim Henson inspiration; whereas, the animation reminds me of Monty Python. I would stick more with the puppets. I also like the long shot painting (?) of the castle. Now, I would be able to judge it better with a more coherent storyline.

You've got a good thing going here. Don't stop.
