Tales from the Bayou

Some of the cast of Believer's Bayou
Puppetry Lab's Amy Harder (on the lower left above) recently worked on the Christian series Believer's Bayou.

Amy Harder has been working on a Christian kids’ series called Believer’s Bayou and shares some stories from the puppetry trenches over at Puppetry Lab. I thought it was a particularly interesting blog post because in it Amy discusses some of the challenges of working on a less-than-ideal puppet shoot, including dealing with sets that aren't raised (or "platformed up") and lip syncing to pre-recorded tracks. Amy's also included some behind-the-scenes pics from the shoot as well.
