So once again, use this pattern for the tunic, this pattern for the pants and follow the tutorials on my YouTube channel that match each pattern. I hate to post all over again, but I’m trying to highlight each member of the Romeo and Juliet cast … Continue reading Ryan Doll to Play #ThePrince in #RomeoAndJuliet #StopMotion Film
In case you don’t remember Romeo and Juliet from your high school days, Count Paris is the gentleman to whom Juliet is actually engaged, when she meets Romeo. I had a tough time casting this part, but I settled on a somewhat flexible Ryan doll to play Paris. Why was this a hard decision to make? Well first of all, Paris is supposed to be … Continue reading #OOAK Ryan Doll to Play Count #Paris in My Stop-motion #RomeoJuliet Video on YouTube
I took this photo today. It shows who’s who in my up-coming stop-motion production of Romeo and Juliet: I’d like to re-post each doll’s costume, with links to the patterns in the posts.

Look who’s playing Romeo in our up-coming stop-motion film, Romeo and Juliet… It’s Texas A&M Ken Doll! I’ve posted patterns for his costume, plus video tutorials showing how to make his pants, shirt, doublet, and even his sword and sheath. I chose this doll to play Romeo because he has such a handsome, serious, lovelorn face. It also helps that he’s very flexible, bending at … Continue reading #TexasA&M Ken Doll Starring as Romeo in #Shakespeare’s #RomeoandJuliet
The casting call has gone out, actors have been chosen, and Momoko (from Petworks) has won the prestigious role of Juliet in our upcoming YouTube stop-motion film, Romeo and Juliet.
