At left is a picture of the puppet I helped puppeteer for 1997's megahit MEN IN BLACK. Specifically, I operated the mouth, which was radio-controlled, as were the eyes. The tentacles and head movement were all cable-operated. One of the reasons I got the job was because I could sound like a baby crying, but when we shot the scene, Barry Sonnenfeld, the director, didn't want me to make any noise. Ah, show business! By the way, when you watch the movie, don't bother looking for my credit -- only the L.A. puppeteers got their names listed.
