Guild Build Day 2

Set design by Tom Blasco
The set for "Eclectic Farm" is under construction! IBEX Puppetry has generously donated space in their warehouse for us to construct and store our building materials in as we prepare for our first Action Puppet Force slam.

The guild is using this opportunity to learn from Tom, a professional FX wizard with a great deal of set and prop experience who runs Puppets On Hand, on topics ranging from wood and fabric construction to stage painting.

Many guild members came together to help realize Tom's design. The concept was crowd-sourced by the guild and includes two main set pieces, a silo that works as a puppet booth and a barn playboard that doubles as a character in itself.

We can't wait to show off the fruits of our labor on November 12th at Urban ReThink!
