Red Nose Studio's fantastic puppet photography


Isn't that just sublime?

Chris Sickels of Red Nose Studio takes gorgeous photographs of hand-made puppets in beautifully realised sets. The degree of craft and skill that has gone into the creation of the physical puppets and sets is awe-inspiring, the photography makes them even more impressive. The galleries on the site are well-worth browsing. Why, there's even a couple of stop-motion animation videos on the site! They're a bit crude compared to, say, an Aardman production, but I ain't complaining. It's always good to see the fine yet dwindling art of stop-motion animation being practised.
