Deutsche Telekom Magenta (multiple television ad campaigns)
View 17 photographs ↓
I sculpted a clay maquette based on a 2D design of ‘The Dude’ and adapted a doll to create the cyclist character. I constructed ball-and-socket armatures, sculpted the hands and feet, then moulded and cast them in silicone before painting. Additionally, I created scale roof tiles for the falling shot and provided puppet maintenance throughout the shoot.
