I made a short film with my puppet character! Here he is as General Markosan, facing off against his old enemy, the vampire Baron.
I was aiming here to make a Universal Horror for kids. Not sure I succeeded, but I’ve certainly learned a bit about filmmaking today

It’s the year 2046 and Space City, the future home of WSP and Fireball XL5, is under construction..

I thoroughly enjoyed this adaptation of a delightful Secret Service origin story, once published as a comic and now revitalized as an audio adventure starring @simpsonsclips24.bsky.social and @chrisdalek.bsky.social! If you're a fan of a quirky Anderson series you'll love it
