We provide puppetry for theatre, film & TV projects – Short films, TV shows, commercials, music videos, and stage productions. Our blue monster star Troggg will appear in any production, or Brett Hansen can puppeteer characters that you have created.
If you have a cast of performers without puppetry experience, Brett can provide training and supervision on set.
Examples of our film, TV and theatre puppetry (both as performer and trainer/supervisor) here:
Heart of a Thousand Souls – Short film written and directed by Luke Walker, and produced by Jessica Magro. Brett puppeteered Troggg in a few scenes:
