Idea Man - Blog Posts

I finally was able to watch “Jim Henson Idea Man”

I adored it omg. I’m such a huge fan of the muppets and the other creations of Jim Henson and look up to him so much as a creator. It’s amazing to know that there were/are other people out there who feel like their time is going by just too quickly to be able to create everything they want to. No matter how much time I get, the things I create with that time, no matter if they change the world or not, are worth it.

That said, here’s the sketchbook page I filled while watching the documentary!

I wrote down some of my favorite quotes, but I know my handwriting isn’t always legible.

“The fact that he did Sesame Street instead of a series of nightclubs”

“Gretl is back from the moon!”

“Train of thought editing.”

“I’ve learned to walk around in my own head. That may sound silly to you but it’s been very, very helpful to me.”

“He wasn’t scared of dying… he believed there was something else there.”

“He wasn’t a musician but he thought like one.”

All that aside, thoughts on the funky puppet guy who takes up the bottom half of the page? Hair or no hair?
