Over the past few years I've dabbled in the artform of puppetry. Some was done on my own in college at the Rhode Island School of Design, but a large part of it happened at Randy Carfagno Productions while working for a variety of clients such as Comedy Central, 30 Rock, and various other companies.
Here's just a few for you to take a gander at:
 |
This is Berry Cherry and Mushroom Swiss. Comedy Central asked us (Randy Carfagno Productions) to design and build these puppets for a brief McDonald's spot on their channel. After doing the designs, I constructed the puppets out of foam and colored them with paint and markers. |
 |
A refined rat, even if he's naked. An odd job at the Carfagno studio, he was built along with three other rats to be used in an interactive educational performance for children about early immigration to the United States. I designed their look, created the patterns, and constructed the foam sculpture. |
 |
Gomby the Goat. I built and covered him for a clever live action short to help promote funds for the college WPI. |
 |
A Zombie head built at the Carfagno studio to promote the game Plants Vs. Zombies. I built the foam understructure, created the eyes, teeth, and hair. And the hair on his chest is a sample of my fine penmanship on fabric. |
