    I like how The Greyboy AllStars drum logo is the same style as The Muppet Show's. Nice touch.

    You know the Depression is really hitting hard when muppets are losing their jobs.

    so exactly how many 'puppet masters' did you have during this production? it some shots, i see a lot of puppets moving at the same time, and just thought of the question of how many people you had helping you out, haha. really awesome and funny approach to a music video.
  • Josh Hassin 9 months ago
    Some of the group dancing shots, had up to 10 performers simultaneously... the full body puppets however generally required 3 people to operate one puppet. The performers were all dressed in "green suits" and were ultimately keyed out as well. thx for your interest ;)
  • Mark Ragunton 9 months ago
    wow, that's really impressive. i never really thought of the idea of you having to key out the performers, haha. i guess it really shows how much worked came along with this video?
