B.D.: Where
is Speilberg, Lucas, Cameron, P. Jackson, etc? .... All
those
mega-millions of cash that flows in the movie business. Any tribute  by
them or recognition
of the STOP
MOTION ICON who inspired many of today's special effects people? Like
maybe 'walk the talk' and really honor him? I got inside information
that various of the
original stop
motion puppets in the Harryhausen collection are falling apart and
needs restoration. A 'Foundation' has been around for years and accepts
donations. Or how about professionals in puppet construction
special effects to perhaps consider contributing their services? I am
guessing the stop motion puppets are likely of latex rubber
composition and
rotting. In my view it would might be a messy restoration attempting to
restore the original puppets. I heard some ideas, like re-sculpting the
rotted out parts of puppet, then generate copy by traditional molding
or computer scanning to create molds .... then re-cast the puppets over
armatures but using modern long lasting silicone material. If you want

A little bit of revelation about the puppet designing & fabrication Read * Tim Burton buzz: 'The Adams Family' in Stop Mo & 3D Stereo .... You probably already know about it but posting here for those that do not frequent the Stop Mo message board. I suppose this is good for Stop Motion but not sure about another 'retake' on 'The Adam's Family'? Maybe the 'Suits' going by their formulas, want something that has a somewhat 'brand recognizalbe name' for marketability to the the LCD masses.Tinsel Town usually not taking chances with originality and they hustle Flick products to the Video Gamer, A.D.D., Ipodified, Twitterized generation Article 1 Article 2 TIM BURTON DENIES EDIT: 03.19.10 * A Little Late after 'St. Patricks Day' .... but if you're interested Watch * From the Stop Motion Works editor's desk .... Just recognizing the minority few who ocassionally provide me with links, buzz, rumors, articles, etc. I appreciate it very much. At times you may not see what you submitted here. Please do not take it personally. Various factors,  such as
'timing'
of what is current, or the buzz/story might have been already covered,
or if you provide date/time sensitive announcements, you need to get
that in a few weeks in advance. Also, these days, I am habitating more
in my Fortress
of Solitude and pondering the state of the nation, society
& world events  ,
and so, I am not as 'Omni-present' active here or at the
messageboard. However, this absence also enhances my
'Enigmatic-ness & Mysteriousness'  . I see other's though,
carrying the
torch at the forum. In addition, I am doing some minor outside 'get
involved & don't just sit on your butt' activism to help
the USA Ship  stay 'afloat' a
little longer .... but I digress. Again, thanks to you few who provide
feedback or info to SMW. As always, I guarantee your anonymity  EDIT:
