Raccoon Boy was a short film/music promo for Ed, by Cindy rhodes, for which Up at the Big House were the art department.
It is the tale of Ed’s struggle with a raccoon that lives on his shoulder, whispering in his ear, and generally being a bad influence.
I made two versions of Rocky; one a hand puppet with cable controlled eyelids, eyebrows and ears (Rocky I), and one which was shoulder mounted, and operated by Ed via cable controls in his jacket pockets (Rocky II)
