HEVYDEVY FORUMS

COOL!

Sorry if it's been discussed elsewhere. This sounds like it could be hilarious.

From HDR News:

Also occupying his time in the past month has been work on his puppet show. The first puppet is coming together with Devin just sculpting the finishing touches. The main character is Ziltoid the Omniscient, an alien with ideas on destroying the Earth. It will consist of five minute episodes with Ziltoid interviewing artists and musicians, seeking from them some reason not to blow up the world. He is working with many other people on the project including Travis Smith (metal CD layout master), Marcus Rogers (Vampira video), among others. Ziltoid will be beaming episodes to the web when he sees fit, and he may be releasing Ziltoid merchandise later in the year. There is no set timetable for the show as it will be done when time is available. “Ziltoid the Omniscient is something I have wanted to do since I was 15 years old [Devin says] and people will wonder why so much energy was put into making him but I saw the movie The Dark Crystal and thought it was so creative that I wanted to do something like that. This is nothing on that scale but some of the puppet-making techniques have been incorporated. It will be in your best interests to like Ziltoid or he will have to lower himself to destroy you.” Ziltoid’s theme song is already written and will be made into a video as well.

OH... MY... GOD!

What, how could I miss this??

Amazing!!

And of course, Ziltoid has already made a small appearance as "Ziltoid the impalor" (I think...) in the Evenlight video Funktard 2.

This sounds awesome though! I want to see this video!

Here he is (in "Impalor" guise)!



Isn't he a happy li'l feller?

Thats the dude! I will have to note what he actually says in that video...I remember it as some kind of mad ramble.

Blindo still rules.

holy fucking crap

i wanna see that

Glad Dev has finally found time to do this. It seems ages since it was first mentioned and its something he really wants to do.

Sounds like a great concept plus the idea of puppet merchandise is brilliant.

I'm so psyched for this.

I just pooped my pants.....

This is gonna kick ass! I remeber he has mentioned in a few interviews in the past how he wanted to work on a puppet show, I always figured that was a joke or something. I'm damn glad it wasnt!
