Like a true television production team, the Puppet Theater TV Crew spent a fast paced two weeks writing scripts, building puppets, props and sets, designing costumes, recording dialogue and sound effects, puppeteering, acting, and filming what has become a ground breaking CMA first: “Flip”, a live action short. Unlike the stop motion animations that have come before, students were faced with the technical and physical challenges of creating something filmed in real time. The group experienced both shooting in our studio and on site at Governor’s Island. We were also allowed the amazing honor of touring The Jim Henson Studio where students witnessed how a professional shop functions. What you are seeing here is the trailer for “Flip”. The full length and amazing complete film will be premiered at CMA’s “Beyond the Refrigerator Door” exhibition on Governor’s Island taking place on Sunday, September 12th, 11am-3pm. Be there, it’s promising to be incredible!
