Love the characters and work you do. Is there a lot of business in the puppetry field in the States?
I am from South Africa, and the industry is really dead here, as there are not a lot of television stations (4 in total) with a decent budget… and 99% of the corporates are only interested in CG.
I gave up CG work 5 years ago, as I felt like it was killing my creativity… moved into puppetry and found the spark again…. now I just need to convince the country that puppetry did not die with Jim.
Thanks for the inspiration… (you and Phil Hatter)

Hey Gareth, what’s your inspired project? Maybe we can work together on bringing back the puppets, with cg as it’s backup vocals LOL!

I hope we can keep the puppets alive. CG is ridiculously taking over. The industry focuses too much on CG and not creativity.
