Muppet Fan's Muppet Collection Chronicle: Dave Hulteen

Muppet Fan's Muppet Collection Chronicle: DAVE HULTEEN

Greetings, Muppet fans! I am so, so excited for today's post--it's an incredible treat for you. Our friend Dave Hulteen (of crazy awesome Muppet fan-art fame) (and of http://davehulteendesign.com) has produced, exclusively for The Muppet Mindset, an amazing video of his wonderful Muppet collection! The video features appearances by Dave's family and a special appearance by yours truly (no, I never got paid for this) as we marvel at Dave's Muppet fandom. I can't describe enough how much I love this video... and you should absolutely unequivocally check it out--conveniently located right here and now!



HUGE special thanks to our good friend and my pal Dave Hulteen for this terrifically awesome video! Dave really is the best and his talents never cease to amaze me!

If you would like to submit an article (or a video, if you're feeling ambitious) of your Muppet collection email Ryan Dosier at ryguy102390@gmail.com and we will be thrilled to showcase it here on The Muppet Mindset!

Muppet Fan Video Mashup from Jeff Yorkes

Greetings, Muppet fans! Today we have a really, really cool fan project for you. As most of you know, the main reason I started The Muppet Mindset was to showcase the work of great Muppet fans. And today's post is a prime example of great Muppet fan work. The other day I got an email from Jeff Yorkes, a huge Muppet fan who works as a freelance film and trailer editor. Which obviously shows in his CINEMASHUP projects, including his mashup of The Muppet Movie and Metallica's "Master of Puppets."

Jeff had this to say to introduce his awesome video:

"I'm a freelance film and trailer editor. When work gets kinda slow--or I just get bored--I make (what I call) CINEMASHUPS, where I recut movies to songs you never knew were totally about that film. As a life-long Muppet fan, this one was a no-brainer. This one's a CINEMINI, as I cut down the full version of the song (at over eight minutes) to a brisk minute and a half! If you enjoy it, check out some of my other ones at jeffyorkes.com or on vimeo at http://vimeo.com/user3544174/videos."




Thanks so much to Jeff Yorkes for sending us this awesome video! Great job, Jeff! We hope to see more great videos from you soon!

Zoot Gets Animated

Greetings, Muppet fans! I'm really, really excited about our post today because I get to debut an incredible piece of fan-made video work. No, it's not another shoddy YouTube video by yours truly, it's an amazing 3D animated rendering of the classic skit from The Muppet Show, "Sax and Violence." Now, the original starred Zoot and Mahna Mahna, but this remake by Muppet fan and artist Andreas Qassim stars Zoot and a very funny 3D figure designed by Andreas himself. Check it out! I promise you won't be disappointed!

Wasn't that awesome? Andreas should be incredibly proud of this piece of work! It's wonderful!

I also promised Andreas I'd show off this wonderful comic he drew featuring Kermit, Fozzie, and super famous Norwegian comic book teddy bear Bamse wishing Donald Duck a happy 75th Birthday. I gotta say, the duck looks much better on TV.

Do I get the joke? Nope. Is the artwork awesome? Heck yes! GREAT job, Andreas! Thanks for the contribution!
