On this day 25 years ago I completed my first movie! #NaturalBornStanley using VHS tapes and two VCRS 😍 After getting the puppet eyes as a gift I would take them to school and puppeteer every day. Friends would gift me items like a marching band glove for the face and little hands and clothes. I built my first puppet #StanleyMerrick when people would ask how I made him I would say “I had a bad day once and I created him with electricity in a lab to exact revenge on those who did me wrong” and that is what became the movie. A sequel was made the year after and part three is just a script in my laptop right now 🥹😍😎 #keepmovingforward kids 🔥😍 Stanley got a redesign and rebuild a few years back by @kanjachen Stanley looks way better now but the original one is in a glass case in my office. 😃 @venturoproductions #venturoproductions https://www.instagram.com/p/CmXxXqUJjYu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
