Dress Rehearsal
With just two weeks to Doktor’s debut I decided to do a full dress rehearsal. The sound isn’t very good and the camera seems to have really picked out my own unprocessed voice despite the processed voice being a hell of a lot louder. Anyway, here’s the test video!
I still need to find something to stop the hood sliding down and also the sling that carries the little laptop on my back slips off my shoulders so I need to do something about that too.
Performance notes are that I can’t see very much in there. I have a spandex hood over my face which has no eye holes. This means that the lenses are completely black which is very cool but means that I can’t see any details. Add to that some misting of the lenses and I can only really see enough to get around but I can’t operate anything. Other than that, the costume isn’t very hot, it’s light. The laptop weighs very little and doesn’t get in the way.
Doktor the Alien Plague Doctor – Almost Complete!
With the mask, gloves, robe and tunic complete, Doktor’s look is almost there. There are some tweaks I’d like to make now that I’ve seen the costume on me but I’m really happy about how it’s looking now. This weekend I’ll be picking up the electronics and then I’ll do some video of Doktor in action. For now… photos!
