How to Make a Robotic Dinosaur (& Other Assorted Beasts): Confessions of a Dinosaur Doula
Summary:
A career in puppetry, animatronics, & immersive theme park experiences has given Michael Schupbach the answers to all sorts of questions about his creatures that blink, roar, & bound across arenas!
Description:
How do you teach someone to drive a full-scale T-rex? How much free will should we give the robotic Banshee from Avatar? These are the questions Michael Schupbach loves to answer. With a career spanning puppetry, animatronics, & immersive theme park experiences, his creatures have roared, blinked, & bounded across arenas & sound stages around the world. From baby dinos in Jurassic World Live, to the Banshee in Avatar the Experience, to Baby Banshees at D23, Schupbach's creations mix engineering & storytelling. In this fast-paced & funny talk, learn how scrappy experimentation fuels high-tech innovation, & how old-school puppet skills still shape cutting-edge creature design. Whether you're a builder, performer, fan, or just want to know what its like to make a Dilophosaurus spit, this session will leave you with a deeper appreciation for the art& chaosof bringing beasts to life.
While there's no one map to lead you through the social obstacles of the industry, this panel will discuss the roles and relationships of editors, agents, and peers in your career.
