A combination of costume and puppet was needed for this Weetabix advert.

The mask was sculpted and moulded for casting in foam latex. It was fitted as a mask for the actor, but could also be hand puppeteered to express emotions when the camera was close-up.

In addition to a full costume for the actor, a puppeteerable version of the scarecrow was fabricated to fall apart and move.
