I'm sure you alrady know about this, thought I wuld suggest it anyway. MAGIC DRAWING BOARD by Axtell PICTURE THIS: You're standing in front of your audience holding a big 14 x 17" blank grid drawing board. Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation You (or with a volunteer) draw ANYsimple face on the board....Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation (Mickey Mouse, Fred Flintstone or even someone in audience!) Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation Now that was easy....but then something strange begins to happen... Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation Right before their eyes, the drawing comes to life! It's eyes move and the mouth opens and closes, under your complete control! (Your audience jumps and gasps, your adrenaline rushes - you know you have a hit!) Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation After talking with it, you end by visibly erasing it while it's moving leaving you clean, holding a blank board once again! AMAZING! Draw Thousands of Faces! Axtell Magic Drawing Board Animation http://www.axtell.com/mdb.html I'm sure our good friend Steve Axtell could adapt it for you further, if needed. If you ontact him, please tell hm I said hllw! Good Luck! Tim Barnes ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mathieu René" To: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Subject: [Puptcrit] Talking pictures: how to? Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 02:23:18 -0500 Hi all. I have this other idea for my first solo puppet show. I can't go into detail yet, it's too early, but one of the types of puppets I would need is a talking picture frame. I know a few techniques that could make such a thing work for some effects, but I'm more interested in making it look more convincing than a trap jaw or a cartoon-like foam contraption. Is there any magnetic way of making a picture or drawing talk? I wouldn't want to be slave to any complicated electrical device or computer screen. Thanks for any leads, even untested theories could help me solve it. _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org -- 10 Great Gift Ideas- Take a Look! http://mail.shopping.com/?linkin_id=8033174 _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org
