The set is ready. The lighting needs some minor tweaks but if I had to I could start shooting today. That is … if the puppets where ready. I’m back at the work bench building the final skeleton so that I can foam up the puppets. I’ve also been creating basic liquid latex mock ups of each of the characters so I can finalize their individual paint schemes before committing to their final appearance. Because FILTH will be in black and white and I am aiming for a high contrast look, there will be some trial and error when it comes to the puppets colour scheme. After all, there is a wide spectrum between black and white and the final puppets are not where I want to be experimenting. All in all things are progressing nicely and I’m fairly certain I will begin shooting by September. Less than a year since the last shot for HIVE was animated. Not bad.
