First bit of very important and exciting news: we now have our full crew! We held petitions for general crew positions and found some awesome crew members. Assistant Camera people, Art Crew members, the essential Puppeteer, Assistant Editors, and more--they now exist!
We also have our complete cast, including leads and featured extras! We're all excited to be working with these talented actors in the month to come.
Next in today's updates: earlids are edible! Okay, let me back up a moment...
Today, Ellen Barry, Ryan Naylor (our production designer), and I did our second prosthetics test. This time, Ryan got to suffer, er, enjoy the grace of having an earlid attached to his head. Ellen's new mold provided many improvements, including more attachment surface area, a better base color, and an updated shape. The earlid is looking good! And so is Ryan with his new appendage.
Ryan getting his ear tickled by latex.
Where'd Ryan's ear go?
And now back to earlids being edible...Turns out the three components of the prosthetic material are all edible: gelatin, vegetable oil, and a laxative. Now, it would be hard to chew and would taste disgusting, but you would probably survive the consumption. Not the consumption as in tuberculosis, but the consumption of the earlid. You know what I mean.
So class, what did we learn today? Even if something is edible, it doesn't mean you should eat it. Very good. Well done. A+. Gold star for you.
Our Kickstarter campaign is in the works--it'll be coming to a computer near you very soon!
