Awkward Potato

This is the best picture I could find of how they customized the Studebaker so Fozzie could appear to drive the car. They crammed the real driver in the trunk. I think he was driving from a video monitor.

This video actually shows how they do a lot of these effects and its really cool! It shows footage of Jim Henson in the tub under the water!

A slight clarification about the guy-in-the-trunk car, that isn’t covered in the video–it was used for the long shots of Fozzie driving, but every close up scene, not showing the entire car, was very likely shot on a process trailer, which is used in most movies when people are acting inside a car that you can’t see all of.

Ok so Haumea, a dwarf planet beyond Pluto, spins so fast it gets elongated like this. This is just what it looks like. Something deeply unsettles me looking at it. Terrifying.

this is so fucked up
