Burning Down the House

"Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?" (Janis Joplin, January 19, 1943 - October 4, 1970) ... oh, and a gift card to Amazon, Sculpey clay, a paint atomizer,  a couple ball joint armature puppets. I can do without the color tv and the night on the town. 

Story boarding for the video “Shadow’s Puppet,” I wanted a “Wizard of Oz” scene with the Wicked Witch of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I built a house of popsicle sticks, put it on a small turntable and took 108 photographs to use in the video.

I was wondering what to do with the popsicle stick house. What would Stephen King do? Burn it! Janice Schilling caught me in the driveway playing with matches. 

 

Watch the "Shadow's Puppet" video here.

 

“Fire Department? 

Tell the chief I need a fire. 

You deliver, right?” 

 

Peace, Y’all!
