SleepyOni: Severed Head Prop - Macbeth Edition

Wherein I take a previously made lifecast and resculpt/mold/cast/repair/paint/detail a theatrical prop for 'Macbeth'.

Also features long hours, shoddy moldmaking, materials failure due to operator error, and absolute panic that it would not be done in time. And yet, here 'tis.

In spite of all the problems and stress involved, I am very proud of this piece. I got to work with some new (to me) materials - Smooth-On's line of Flex-Foams are absolutely great, and I heartily endorse their Plasti-Paste as well. Good, fun stuff to work with.

Even with lost footage/camera problems, I still had 9+ hours of raw footage to wade through. This easily should have been split into two videos - but the production just opened last week and I wanted to get this out as fast as I could.

Thanks to Gamut Theatre Group for hiring me for their more bizarre prop needs! I am having a blast with these, although I'm really starting to miss sleep. Have one more Macbeth-related build on the way, then it's back to skulls and nerdery.

Shakespeare In The Park is a free show, every summer. Their production of 'Macbeth' runs June 2nd - June 17th at Reservoir Park in Harrisburg, PA. AND IT'S REALLY GOOD.
