Things are looking productive. I've been nominated by Blind Summit to apply for the Art Foundations fellowship in Puppetry. I don't fancy my chances but mearly being nominated has boosted my confidence a lot.

To enter I must have at least three samples of my work on film. The way they word it in the application makes it sound like they expect these to be taken from actual stage perfomances or proper film pieces. However I only have the music video that matches up to that criterior.

So to solve things I asked some very fine puppeteers to do a workshop with my puppets in order to give me a sporting chance at the prize. If I were to win, I would have enough money to build my own workshop, buy a much needed band saw and perhaps even leave enough money for me to pursue my own work.

I'm not sure the soundtrack is appropriate, but this is our Pacino the wolf workshop:

And here you can view the music video I made the puppets for:

Love to hear your opinions.
