In a video simply titled Animatronics, special effects creator Adrian Parish gives us a brief look behind the scenes of Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Highlights include a polar bear from The Snow Queen and a very thirsty Camel from a Volvic commercial, and the entire video is set to a rigorous drum 'n' bass soundtrack. Now excuse us while we go and work out where exactly the troll animatronics were used in the CGI-laden Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
