I was on set all day today being the live hands for one of the characters. It was wonderful and exhausting. Being back at work feels great, but it means lots of poses that would make a yoga master wince. Fortunately I only seem to be facing standard fatigue and show no signs of trouble from my fall last October. Whew.
Today I was hanging laundry. The problem is that I enter the puppet’s arms at her elbows, which means that she can’t raise her arms above her waist without my arms showing. Make sense? So we had to do lots of very interesting cheats, using different things to mask me. It was challenging and fun and we did some good work, I think.
