Kevin Beltz, Puppet Fabricator at The Bob Baker Marionette Theater on 8x10 Film - Episode 014

In this episode, I get a look behind the curtain inside the Bob Baker Marionette Theater in Los Angeles. I sit down with Kevin Beltz, who builds and maintains over 2,000 puppets inside the theater, and learn about his story before taking his portrait.

These just keep getting better and better, he cinematography, the interview, the lighting. The portrait is fire as always.

This video really captured the feeling of being in the that workshop and the care that goes into the puppets. Well done! And great portrait of Kevin! Iconic.

Wonderful portrait of Kevin. The look of 8x10 never gets old

[@BetweenTheBellows]

Thank you! I am giddy every time I open the tank and pull out the negative.

Very well done Marcus. Your portraits are wonderful. Your interviews are the cherry on top. My absolute favorite RUclips channel.

[@BetweenTheBellows]

Thank you Jeff! Still finding my way with the channel, but enjoying the storytelling part right now. Thinking of including more gear-focused or technical episodes eventually.

Wonderful atmosphere. Wonderfully peculiar, in fact. Excellent portrait.

[@BetweenTheBellows]

Thanks for watching, and I agree, there's no place like it.

Love this series! But honestly, if I ever visit this place it’s going to need to be midday, all the lights on and I’m not going to go to the basement.

[@BetweenTheBellows]

Thanks for watching! It's definitely a great experience, but a tiny bit creepy being around the hanging puppets😆
