HAVE A LOOK

We have over thirty years of designing and constructing puppets, creatures and characters, diverse in all disciplines and materials for your perfectly imagined performances and effects.

Since the dawn of our time, we have been designing toys, tinkering with antiques to re-purpose installations, and mastering oddity fabrications, both for public and private clients.

Our studio is experienced in an unconditional range of costume and prop-making techniques, ready for your screen, stage or even cosplay. If you can dream it; we can create it. Imagination is bigger than borders.

Below you can find a link to our YouTube channel where we articulate our accomplishments, and to encourage the creativity of each other's ideas. Please check it out to see the fruit our imagination produced.

• CREATIVE PROCESS •

CUSTOM CREATIONS Creative ideas and solutions may come easily to me, but creativity itself does not exist in a vacuum! I communicate very closely with every client through each step of the process in creating his or her “product”. Whether it is a custom puppet, animated video, costume, prop or designed artwork. These are your ideas, your dreams, your perfectly odd peculiar masterpiece - let me help you create it. I am confident that together, you and I, can make exactly what you want, but better!

PROJECT DIRECTION Focus is key. We have designed and overseen the building of theatrical sets, interactive installations, illusion shows and more. Let us harness your visions and master your ideas into clear concepts that are attainable!

WORKSHOPS Let us bring your creative idea to life! If you’d like to learn how to create that “thingamabob” or understand what it’s like to perform a creature for a camera performance, we would be happy to teach you! We offer a wide variety of workshops that can be custom tailored to your interests in art, puppetry, costuming, performance and prop fabrications. To see what's new, follow our social media links!

I have had the pleasure of working with Matt on several projects: "Noddy," where he designed all the puppet characters, and "Ace Lightning," where he designed all the CGI characters. In both media, puppets and animation, his work was outstanding. Matt also voiced several of the characters, proving that he's not only a great character designer who is able to bring a producer's vision to life, but he's also an accomplished performer and a first rate puppeteer. Plus, he's a joy to work with. I would highly recommend hiring Matt for any project that requires originality and superb character design.

Matt is an intuitive, thoughtful and inventive team leader who works hard to ensure a high degree of collaboration when working on multi team projects. He has strong people skills in addition to his extensive creative expertise.

Matt is an extraordinarily talented performer, who knows and reads his audiences well. He is equally as talented - and smart - in the production business. He could easily be a star in any of the entertainment capitals of the world.

Matt is unsurpassed, in my opinion, in skill and imagination. He's a world class performer, a talented visual artist, and a congenial collaborator

Matt is an amazingly multi-talented puppet/special effects builder/performer for film, television and theatre. He is also a good guy and a team builder. I've known him for years as a fellow performer and also as a contributor to Almonte's International Puppet Festival. His inappropriate old lady in a supercharged wheelchair is a favourite on the street even if you don't want your kids listening to everything she says. Matt's creatures and characters are finely crafted and wacky. So is he.

This guy has talent coming out of his a@#$! The best puppets on the planet and an imagination and artistic talent thats unreal. If you have a creative project that needs artwork or modeling he is your man !
