Creature Shop Challenge


Uhmm sorry I'm talking about CSC again. It's just so good. So magical. Let me be there.
I know I've mentioned this before, but I wish they'd bring this back to Syfy. Such a wonderful idea.
To be in that workshop! Have access to those materials.
To get feedback from Brian Henson! To have a chance to work at the Creature Shop.
Lil' old Jay would sell her soul for that.

The contestants aren't Hensons, they never met Jim. But they're so 'INTO' his world that they compete for the chance to be a part of the company.
... I think that shows the height of Jim's legacy.
I think he'd laugh at the idea of people fighting to work in his shop, remembering how he began in the industry with scraps of his mother's old coat. A humble beginning.

This poster should explain how Jim's creatures differed from his Muppets. I'm more of a fan of his creatures, but he was known for both. Possibly more so for his Muppets/puppets.
Actually, this poster could answer the brief really well... hmmm! Explaining Jim's principles? Something that could go on the wall of the Creature Shop? A sort of tutorial?
