Making the Intro: Neil’s Puppet Dreams – Behind the Scenes with Digital Twigs

Created by Digital Twigs:
“For the opening of Neil’s Puppet Dreams we wanted to capture the quintessential moment of the show; Neil entering the puppet world that exists in his dreaming mind. The strangeness of the puppet-verse intrigued us and we imagined a transition essentially between the waking world and the dreaming world. Visually we wanted to show Neil’s insides as the inner workings of a puppet. We knew right away we wanted to do it all practical, and include the Henson Alternative puppet parts. So we proceeded by building the inside of Neil’s head/brain out of meat and felt. It got a little smelly but it was worth it.”
