7 headed lion demon rod puppet - creature suit
Ben created a custom 7 headed rod puppet - creature suit. Each head had a glowing horn. 4 heads had spring loaded jaw mechanisms and 1 head had animatronic lip curl and eyebrow movements. A creature suit performer wore the body suit to animate the creature’s body and legs.
Watch a demo of the animatronic lip and “eye flap” movements in the hero demon head.
Watch a demo of the cable operated jaw mechanism that 4 heads have and the glowing horn that all heads have.
Watch a clip from a rehearsal with the puppet suit.
