He won't be packed away with the Christmas memorabilia, I can tell you that! This little guy's gonna hang out with me all year long (I imagine him tugging at my sleeve, in a tiny squeaky voice, asking sadly 'Is it Christmas yet?')....<BR/>Tell me a little about some of your past creations, what was your favorite one?<BR/>Lotsa love and happy holidays to you both!UbaTuberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777541540454167277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-1166652123182018942006-12-20T14:02:00.000-08:002006-12-20T14:02:00.000-08:00Gretchin, thank you so much for being a Halfland f...Gretchin, thank you so much for being a Halfland fan, even before it's done!!<BR/><BR/>And Phil, thank you so much for commenting! I read aloud the sweet note above you wrote to Himself (Husband Paul) and he, so delighted, shouted out, "RAY!!!! Who needs that Nelson Lowry!? We have Phil Dale as our friend!!!" (tee hee) (Nothing against Nelson, mind you. It's just I never heard a word back from him after I wrote months ago and so we decided that "Shelleyness" is an aquired taste--and NOT for everyone!! hee.)

That one (Othello) hasn't been released on american video (at least DVD... might be tapes available, not sure) but I was able to track down a european disc of it and feast my eyes on some of the most impertinent cinematography ever put on film!Darkmattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15410415900992364189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-1166583612558346282006-12-19T19:00:00.000-08:002006-12-19T19:00:00.000-08:00Ale, are you serious!?

But as you, as soon as their done, I'm all done for Christmas giving this year, so that's good! Then I can go back to being selfish! Whew. <BR/><BR/>I'm thinking of everything for Halfland all at once. I'll have to break it down into tasks. Mainly, what I've been thinking in my head about it has been interesting camera angles and scene transitions. And how much more CONFIDENT I feel about what I want to do with it. I watched The Third Man about six times whilst making the puppets and it really gave me a burst of assurance about how I want to shoot my scenes. The 1930's was such a creatively fertile time in film I got all up n' inspired n' stuff.<BR/><BR/>@Hi Mike!! Hooray! I'm so glad you got yours! It's weird to still be making them while some folks have received them BUT I'd rather they came now than at EASTER like I was a-fear-ed they would. 'Cause this kind of puppet would be hard to make work at Easter don'cha think?<BR/><BR/>Bummer about your computer friend. A speedy recovery and God's speed with it! When Seattle folks lost power last week after you in the East lost yours, it got me thinking the unthinkable. I would be lost without Google. When I cut my thumb I Googled what to do and felt so clear about the information; pressure for 30 minutes, etc., that I could make the call about not getting stitches. Without Google I would have had to go to a dirty emergency room around here at 2 am (and would have missed Downstairs Clare's call for some help at 3 am by the way) and on and on. Google is like an ORACLE!! I rely on it everyday--Sheesh! You still have internet at least though, that's good.Shelley Noblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968333057020378002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-1166583181946528982006-12-19T18:53:00.000-08:002006-12-19T18:53:00.000-08:00Oh, come on!

I suppose these little guys have a bit of your blood in them! <BR/><BR/>Mine has arrived, and I've posted about him at my blog, though unfortunately I'm experiencing (ever-worsening) computer ailments that have made it impossible for me to take pictures or do animation (which your present made me immediately want to do). Hopefully I can get the computer fixed in January, and then all will be back to normal in Darkland as well.Darkmattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15410415900992364189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-1166570250072069352006-12-19T15:17:00.000-08:002006-12-19T15:17:00.000-08:00Congrats on finishing up (tomorrow)! unfortunatel...Congrats on finishing up (tomorrow)! unfortunately I'll be toiling away at my holiday bits and bobs until the wee hours of Christmas Eve, but thats expected, almost tradition....I too have been consumed with film ideas whilst forcing myself to work on non-stop-mo artsy-fartsy stuff...can't wait to 'dive' back into Jenny G :)<BR/><BR/>Whatchoo thinkin 'bout workin on next? :PUbaTuberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777541540454167277noreply@blogger.com
