Episode 111

http://www.UnderThePuppet.com - Jeanne Lauren worked in the creature shop that was building some of the most iconic creatures for Return of the Jedi. She also worked on the film ensuring the creatures looked good on screen and more importantly, that their performers were comfortable while wearing the creature suits. Her own company, Skyana has been designing puppets, mascots and costumes for Corporate events and television for decades. I talk to Jeanne Lauren about all these things and more, including her appearance as a biker in the 1986 film Howard the Duck, on this episode of Under The Puppet.
