Hey all!
We've finally gotten this project posted on our site! Conservation and display of the original Creepshow Fluffy costume and puppet
We had the great pleasure to work with two very cool Creepshow props - the original "attack head" puppet and the original wearable costume and mask for "Fluffy" the crate beast. Tom Savini created these props for the film and I still remember the first time I picked up Tom's "Grande Illusions" book for the first time and just devoured all the great behind the scenes pics and info about his creations. It was an honor to work on a creature that inspired me so many years ago!
Our client, Jack Morrissey, has given Fluffy a great home. He approached us with such passion for the character and its history… and an open-ness to all manner of creativity when it came to the ultimate display, which included heavy duty theme work, lights and even sounds and music from the film. Special thanks to Jack, as well as Greg Nicotero for all his input as well!
Honestly, I could talk forever about Fluffy, but instead I'll let the photos do the talking.
That said, if you DO want to hear me talk about Fluffy, then check out our video about it! The Original Fluffy from Creepshow - Movie Prop/Costume Conservation and Display - YouTube
By the way, those who follow our Facebook page have seen some great behind the scenes shots, so be sure to like us over there too!
Enjoy the pics and thanks for looking!
