The finished version of Murphy peeking around the stage.
Murphy the Caterpillar
At Swazzle Puppet Studio I was the builder behind Juno Baby’s Murphy the Caterpillar. The puppets were originally constructed by another company, and we were updating & re-building them for a new set of videos. This was an interesting build, as Murphy had three body sections that needed to be able to bend and flex in an accordion-like fashion. To learn more, check out the behind-the-scenes photos below, and consider contacting me to help bring your puppet project to life!
Starting to build Murphy 2.0. The new one eliminates the batting & polar fleece of the original & is all scott foam & antron fleece.
The completed Murphy puppet doing a camera test. I was the puppet captain on this new set of episodes, and helped the director coordinate the shots.
