These images were sourced from Disney Travel Babble's article on their visit to the set of Age of Resistance!
There were a handful more images of puppet pieces, which I did not have space to include, unfortunately.
The article's introduction is as follows;
"I’m revising today’s entry now that I can finally share with you the full story of our visit to the set of Netflix’s The Dark Crystal prequel, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, which was the genesis of The Lurkyloos Do Disneyland Paris in the Snow (So You Don’t Have To) trip report! Not only has the series just debuted on Netflix, but they also put together a fabulous making-of documentary that allows you to see a lot of what we saw that day but were not allowed to photograph.
Our whole trip—this once-in-a-lifetime tour of London, Disneyland Paris, real Paris and Scotland—came about solely because Netflix gave The Jim Henson Company money to create a prequel to The Dark Crystal. Honestly, Disneyland Paris would otherwise have been the last international Disney park we visited. As I mentioned in the intro post, I was just not that into it. And no trip gets planned around this joint unless I’m into it!
But, as you’ll see in the documentary, not only did Netflix give Henson the money for a prequel, they insisted that all the characters be puppets—not the originally pitched idea of half puppets and half CG characters. Which meant that Patrick got to spend nine months working at the Jim Henson Creature Shop in Burbank making hands, arms, bodies, neck sleeves and “brains” (foam head inserts) for Podlings and Gelflings! And it meant that we were able to arrange a visit to the massive set of the show, just outside London.
That morning, we’d arranged another private ride via Blackberry Cars, which was supposed to meet us at 8:45 am but didn’t arrive until 9:15 am, which made me very anxious about reaching the studio out near Slough by 10 am. The driver didn’t apologize, but he did manage to get us there on time via speeding.
When we arrived at the studio, a really nice fellow named Juan gave us hard hats and chic neon yellow vests and led us through a labyrinth (ba-da-bing!) of key-carded corridors to start our tour with the production areas before eventually making our way to set.
We entered through the red door at the back of this shot…"
