John Weagly joins cast of upcoming stop motion short

We are so thrilled to have John's voice for a character called,  "The Calm One" in our stop motion comedy, "Would you rather I was dead?" 

JOHN WEAGLY has been heard as the voice of HarperCollins/HarperKids Publishers, Wendella Sightseeing and on multiple podcasts including High Country Drama and Lumpy & Sasquatch.  Some of his favorite stage roles include Stefano in The Tempest, Brother Matthew in Monasteries, Curley in Of Mice and Men, Marlowe in Forget Him and touring with Authorized Personnel: A Comedy & Improv Team.

Upgrading our "set" for stop motion filming

For our first little stop motion film I used whatever was on hand.  I helped our Barbie cast stand with various cheats, including using window insulating putty.  It wasn't always successful.
After internet research I found a large piece of steel and Rick has started to make me a stage.

I've started to experiment with magnets.  So amazing to see Arlene and Doctor standing!

"The Doctor's Last Day" finished (for now) and sending off to film festivals!

Film runs five minutes and features the voices of:
Laura Barr
Luke Polanczyk
Erica Baffa
Isabella Cruz
Karen Marie

Special thanks to:

Gimp software helps our Barbie cast express their emotions in the upcoming stop motion "The Doctor's Last Day."

Here "Olive" learns that the Doctor's memory is better than she'd hoped.
