Making the Stop-Motion Creature Puppets of Poker Face!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лип 2024
- One of our favorite shows of late has been the murder mystery show Poker Face, starring Natasha Lyonne and created by Rian Johnson for the streaming network Peacock. And in its first season, the show pays homage to stop-motion animation with an episode inspired by the work of Phil Tippett! Adam visits Tippett Studio where puppet fabricator Kayte Sabicer shows us some of the puppets created specifically for that episode.

Kayte is a really great communicator on camera - so smooth and engaging and fun. Enjoyed her effortlessly natural back-and-forth with Adam. You should have her on Tested more often!
I watch her "favorite things" every year! Love Kayte!
Phil really has an unparalleled imagination for character design! And it was lovely to see Kayte on the channel describing the labor of love that went into these creations.
YES!!!! I LOVED this episode and I’m AMAZED that it was actually Tippet and not just an homage. Getting to hear Kayte discuss the making of the puppets is inspiring. THANK YOU!!!!
Dude, Adam could make such a kickass cosplay of that cyclops. That'd be a killer incognito
Rockford Files, Columbo, Baretta and Darren McGavin/ Nightstalker were SOOOO important to my adolescence. Def a HUGE happy place - I really wanted to be a PI as a kid... that or a Vampire 😅
There are vampire detectives out there, so there might be a job opening. 😎 Good taste in TV series!
@@joanhoffman3702 Yeah! You're right - I totally forgot about Forever Knight - I was ahead of my time 😉
My favorite character in Rockford Files episodes was Lance White (Tom Selleck). His episodes were hysterical.
Im so glad that Stop Motion, actual physical SMA is still a thing and hasnt been taken over with CGI yet. Its great that all those skills and years of development are still being passed on. Im a closet Roy Harryhausen fan and Im so stoked I actually got to meet him once after an animation lecture he did in my home town, and he smiled when I asked him to sign a postcard of the fossilised miniature horse that was on display in Leicester at the time (borrowed from Germany). His miniature horse in 'Valley of Gwangi' has always remained in me. He had a great skill of adding personality to his characters (even to his flying saucers!). I just wish it was easier to find computer software for animation from multiple photos outside the proffesional budget.
Its great to see the work of masters of their craft, and also get so much insight into their process. I am certain that their work will inspire future animators, I am an aspiring animator and this has me SO excited to watch them come to life on screen! Thanks for making the video, I am certain this channel inspires many young artists as well.
As soon as you said Rockford files, I had the music in my head. I haven’t heard it in at least 35 years but I remember it note perfect.
Ditto. I bought it on a 45!
I was watching this episode thinking I wonder if Adam Savage has seen it. I figured it was based on someone real I just didn't know who. Great show and while I may not be as old as you i really enjoyed how it harkens back to old detective shows. This episode I kept pausing looking around at all the interesting things in the workshop so I'm happy you were able to look at and show us things in more detail. Thank you
The whole thing felt very inspired by ILM
Phil is one of the best. That blends design and execution in formatted formats❤
Even though I'm only 32 I loved the Rockford files..my 2 favorite characters were angel and Jim's father lol love it
Thank you, Adam! I appreciate you for your enthusiasm and for all that you do.
Always a treat to spend time with Kayte
Learned about "flashing" today. Good stuff.
Key marking seems like an art in itself
I wanted to share this quote by recently passed designer Milton Glaser and I thought of your comments section for videos. Keep making "YOU FEEL DIFFERENTLY TOWARDS THE WORLD WHEN YOU MAKE THINGS"
Scary monster in the thumbnail. That thing Adam is holding is scary too...
She has good style! Shes very intelligent & easy going
I really enjoyed Poker Face, Natasha is just magical!
Born in the late 60s: check. Grown up with the Rockford files: check ... and also Quincy, Kojak, Petrocelli, Matlock and of course Columbo...
It was a delightful episode of a truly fun show. I am so happy Phil is getting so much deserved attention! Paul Verhoven is completely right: Phil Tippet is a genius. And a delight.
Right?!
Oh I think I recognize that Phicen body lol. It's wild to me that the latest development craze in action figures is silicon seamless bodies with a metal understructure. Just casual 80 year old technique is the new hotness.
I assumed that this character was based on Phil Tippett when I watched the show. Nice touch.
Mr. Adam, i owe you a big "thank you!" I would of never known about this series. Truly a master piece, just like you! you are a treasure . thank you !
I love these puppet videos! Theyre so magical!
Kayte is awesome and the puppets are fantastic! Great work everyone!
It's great to see the enthusiasm amongst fellow makers. I could sit and talk to you guys for days! I've made quite a few prop replicas in my time, but seeing the way others work is always food for thought.
Cerberus has some very Dante's Inferno vibes about it. And like meets Japanese tokusatsu monster? I love it, I assumed the mouth splitting was an intentional Glasgow look. It adds to the j-horror vibes for me.
I'm glad he mentioned God so I could. a long time ago his channel did an episode on the workshop of the creator of Mad God.
I had no idea what it was all about, but after seeing the work he was doing I didn't care what it was all about. his work was
amazing. I had forgotten about the project until a yt thumbnail reminded me. I just watched it and I was not disappointed.
just the opposite. it was so much more than expected. the inclusion of love action seemed to make it even creepier. that
amount of work put into this project must have been mind numbing. thank you for an unforgettable movie experience and
thanks to Tested for being the ones to introduce his work to me.
The Rockford Files also had a brilliant theme tune. We had it in the UK too.
Hopefully we will see some livestreams with Kayte, Jen and Mel. Those are always fun 🤩
I loved pokerface as a whole but this was the standout episode to me already being in love with the world of puppetry and practical animation so you KNOW i clicked so fast when i saw this release
Kayte is awesome.
Can't wait for mad god to become widely available over here
Would be beautyful an interview with Maestro Phil Tippet!
The mitchell camera looks like the one that was made for The Aviator at New Deal Studios.
I love stop motion! It's great to see information about this universe here. Thanks! from Brazil!
Hooray Kayte! Miss her from the COVID days.
Adam, this artist is phenomenal! I do not have a clue about the show pokerface, but you have peaked my interest with your intro!!
OMG, she is just adorable. You can tell she is someone who gets so much jot and fulfillment from her craft!
I sometimes wonder what these creature designers' dreams must be like.
At least in my case, usually pretty tame. When you have a clear outlet for your darker inspiration, it doesn't tend to bother your rest much.
Adam, you must find a "voyages" omni. They're the coolest!🌎
The part about mailing stop motion animation stuff being nerve wracking reminds me of the video Captain Disillusion did on the special effects for Flight of the Navigator where he got his hands on one of the stop motion space ships used for the door opening/stairs forming sequence (from the look of it, it wasn't a cheap prop to get hold of either, the auction is still possible to find with the prices and stuff) and the thing that was missing was the armature that went in under the stairs to hold them up in position to make them appear to hover from the right angle, so he worked with another creator who specialised in 3D printing to make the armature, sending some of the stairs from the original prop to him to use to design, build and test the print... and when he went to mail them back, the irreplaceable 30+ year old prop pieces vanished into the aether en route
Absolutely devastating. I collect dolls that are many times limited edition and from retired artists and I've reached the point where I'm learning to paint them myself because I refuse to mail them to anyone for fear of them getting lost in transit.
That's a Bell & Howell 2709 on CameraHead, not a Mitchell Standard. Mitchell viewfinder, though. Such beautiful, beautiful work.
Thanks for another fun and interesting video.
Awesome Adam sir
Fantastic video
This so amazing! I would love to know where you got that Mitchell camera??!!
I love how smiley you look in this segment! Reminds me of, “ don’t you just hate it when your cheeks from smiling too much?” I love it and it’s nice to see your smiley face! Gratitude
Thats awsome
You had me at Natasha Leone, I think out of all my friends I was the only guy that crushed on her in American Pie over all the other chicks in that movie, and defo still kinda do.
Is it only a single stop motion episode or are these puppets used through the whole series in Poker Face?
it looks like Child's Mbwan from Relic with three human heads. I wonder which came first and if one inspired the other.
I know you don't do mythbusters anymore, but I want to know is "when you are trying to find your destination is easier to split up or stay in a group?"
For closeups Phil Tippet stood in for Nick Nolte, so his "meat hands" are in the show
Does anyone know where the pre-made and skinned stop-motion puppets that Kayte mentions was used for the cameraman can be found for purchase?
8:28 Seymour? How dare you... Audrey 2. Ha
What about 'The Six Million Dollar Man' ?
Am I missing an eyebrow? If you know, your a real one.
WHO makes those off-the-shelf puppets and where can I find them, please?
is that one head steven tyler?
Neat.
Too bad you didn't show the bust of Tim Russ. I'd have liked to learn about that prop as well as what was covered... 😊
How would I find their film work?
she's beautiful
Have you seen the UA-cam channel hacksmith.
I grew up with Quincy Barney miller wkrp and columbo
a 7yo Rockford Files fan? I was 6yo and only up to Little House on the Prairie and Happy Days.
Did I just hear Adam Savage call a movie that does not exist "amazing" ?
Yes.
Is it me or does anyone else see a resemblance between Cerebus's right head and John Travolta?
What number episode of poker face is it
Season 1, Episode 8: The Orpheus Syndrome. Fun fact: Natasha Lyonne directed this episode of the season.
Wait 39 seconds ago-
Audrey puppet *
2 minutes
You guys will have to forgive me.
Cerberus being Greek and Greek has no obvious 'c' but a hard 'k', so it would be more phonetically, Kerb-erus.
Very hard K sound.
I know, pedantry, but.... the pronunciation was bugging me.
Ryan j ruined Star Wars
"the last jedi" and the term "amazing" should never be used in the same sentence. it was alright at best. the spin off movies are better.
No , the last jedi is amazing, and better than all the other movies from disney . Exept Andor , but that's a Tv show .
Rian Johnson helped ruin Star Wars. He can GTFO.
