I’m Not Proud of This Footage

Recently my dedication to the art of puppetry was called into question by a jealous puppeteer. This was one of the lowest days of my artistic life. I’ve had a bit of rough go of it here in Tech and I was hoping to make a fresh start and make new friends in a new industry. Boy, was I wrong there! These puppeteers are some of the most vicious competitors I’ve seen and they all hate me. Anyway, maybe I’m feeling defensive, but here is some b-roll I’m not very proud of. I just hope that by me sharing these very personal moments, perhaps fellow puppeteers will never again question my undying love of puppetry.

This is how you do a Steve Ballmer video.

    I got the opposite reaction Loren..your competitors do no have a clue

    The art in any profession is turning the shittyest thing into something people want whereas the unskilled competitors cannot..

    Michelle’s laughing was awesome.
    I mean, unfortunate that you were caught on tape so frustrated, but uh… yeah, her giggles kind of stole the show, which I guess might be a good thing? ;)

    That’s the beauty of editing Loren… you can cut out those little snafu’s… …and you should cut Michelle a little slack…she’s not a professional puppeter/entertainer like you… (pauses to clean tip of nose…lol)
