FAN FILM COMPETITION

THERE'S A FAN FILM COMPETITION GOING ON FOR THE DARK CRYSTAL.

THE WINNER GETS A TRIP TO HOLLYWOOD, A TOUR AROUND THE HENSON STUDIOS AND MEETS THE HENSONS!!!!

I know that this brief is to make a poster, postcards and stamps (still images) and not a film (moving image), but I think this is a perfect opportunity for me to do both at the same time. I can make a film, submit it and take frames and photos of my creatures to use as promotional material in answer to the module brief.

'But with The Dark Crystal, instead of puppetry we're trying to go toward a sense of realism - toward a reality of creatures that are actually alive and we're mixing up puppetry and all kinds of other techniques.'

'The most important thing, however, is to love what you're doing and go after those visions, no matter where they lead.'
