Peter asked me questions about how one would go about creating a little gnome character. These pr

Stan Winston Studio created two animatronic giraffe puppets for Roland Emmerich’s 2012 (2009). 🦒🦒 From the 2012 Film Wiki: “Though most of the giraffe’s population was wiped out by the 2012 Apocalypse, some were stowed away on the Arks of the Zoology Chamber in China to ensure their survival. After the Arks docked in Africa, the giraffes would live there with the surviving human populace and other animal species that survived the apocalypse in Africa.” #animatronic #puppet #giraffe #rolandemme
