our first video for this album is for ‘obey the groove’. the basic idea is: a planet, made out of my head, gets overrun with alien robots, and pete and neil cosmonauts come to save the day.  there are puppets, and robots, and lasers.  big fun.
after figuring out the rough timeline and plot points, i decided to do some concept paintings. 









next i had to figure out what the robots might look like.  i took a trip to the 99 cent store and bought anything i thought i could turn into a robot.  then i went to a hobby shop and bought couple battleship models.  i took all the parts and hot glued them onto the 99 cent store bodies i had built.  after a quick coat of spraypaint, i went in and detailed the robots a little, until i ended up with this:












for the cosmonauts, i found a fantastic puppet builder and hired him.  his name is russ walko, and this is what he built:






after seeing the little cosmonaut petey, i got quite giddy.  i started talking to the puppet, tucking it in at night.  i tried to feed him, but he wouldn’t eat.  i told him he needed food and rest after his journey from space.  he was silent. 

next, i’m going to do a test shoot of the petey head planet.  then i’ve got to design and build some more robots.  finally, after the alien puppet is built, it’s time to shoot!

You should totally sell little stuffed Petey cosmonaut puppets on your next tour. You would make a killing. I would probably buy four or five of them.

Try removing little petey's helmet, then maybe he'll eat...or he might have been waiting for little cosmonaut neil...

ya, he really is cute! I agree, you must sell these little peteys and little neils on the tour
