FILM WORK
THE HITCHHIKERS GUIDE
to the GALAXY
REMOTE OPERATED
ANIMATRONICS.
LIFELIKE LIP SYNC & PERFORMING THE GUIDE
VOCALS WHILE SHOOTING.
2004 British made big screen version
of Douglas Adams classic space-romp.
I played Vogon Commander Kwaltz.
The Vogons were Colossal body costumes
with radio controlled , servo driven
animatronic faces,
so this was another stint for me on the
Henson Creature Shop control system.
Filming was at Elstree Film Studios,
and locations in rainy Hertfordshire.
 
ALICE IN WONDERLAND
FULL ANIMATRONIC HEAD
REALISTIC LIP-SYNC
& MY VOICE.
A 3 hour , made for TV,
Star-Studded spectacular.
Jim Hensons Creature Shop
built the non human
characters.
Little Kiran Shah and I
together played the
White Rabbit -
he in the tiny body costume,
and me on the animatronic head
and providing the voice.
Shot at Shepperton Studios
late Summer 1998.
Great fun to shoot , and nice to
do the voice in the final dub too.
