Dinosaurs! - Philip Millar

This week, its all about Dinosaurs!

I think when you have a passion about something, and you've held that passion for a long time, that is something to be celebrated!

Philip Millar loves Dinosaurs. And boy I'm glad he does. He's brought dinosaurs back to life for Polyglot Puppet Theatre, Creature Technologies and through his own company, Puppet Vision.

In this week's episode of Talking Sock, we talk about Philip's history with puppets and his journey in taking Dinosaurs and other larger than life creatures to the next level in entertainment.

As a member of Creature Technologies, Philip helped developed Walking With Dinosaurs and also worked as a sculpture for Ron Mueck and Patricia Piccinini. Furthermore, he was the co-artistic director of Polyglot Puppet Theatre and started out working with Handspan Theatre Company.

Philip has found himself looking back on a career filled with creativity and has shown no signs of slowing down. With Puppetvision, he continues to work in building commercial puppets while producing and directing his own shows. Whats most impressive, I think, is the versatility and technical skill Philip applies to problem solving using new media.

Listen in to find out how Philip approaches producing new theatre and creating new puppets from every imaginable material.
