\"Little<\/a><\/p>\n

Remember the little elephant and boy puppets I was working on last year? Here are some pictures<\/a> of how they turned out. They were for the Flying Fruitfly Circus <\/a>production The Promise<\/i>, which premiered<\/a> at the Sydney Festival about a month ago. The build for the show was quite big, and largely undertaken by Tim Denton and Annie Forbes in Melbourne, but I was asked to make these little ones and a life-size elephant trunk (more of the trunk soon in another post). The designer was Richard Jeziorny, whom I really like working with.<\/p>\n

It’s part of the business that directors sometimes need to alter significantly or completely cut scenes and props, and in this case the elephant was altered or remade in Melbourne so that it could have more head movement than the original design. I was given the opportunity to do it, but couldn’t take it on at the time. It looks from this picture as if it was covered and the head possibly remade completely.<\/p>\n

The production received great reviews such as this at the Australian Stage Online.<\/a> I’d like to see it one day if they tour up this way.<\/p>\n
