ESCAPE
A Fantasy Tale
​
A Film by Dustin Hawkins
The plans have been stolen that could change the tide of a war. Sinc, Jade and her physically connected pet dragon Namu, must escape from the planet with the stolen information and rendezvous with their team for pickup. But can they get there in time!
​
Escape, is a short fan film composed of both Star Wars and Stargate fandoms with several others. This was the first time we created a film with a puppet. With the help of St. Louis Fantasy Puppetry and Performance. It was a one day shoot with a lot crammed into it. We hope you'll enjoy this short that we filmed with limited resources and difficult restrictions during the pandemic of 2020.
Character: Jade & Namu Puppeteer
Carissa and her puppet, Namu, are St. Louis born entertainers hailing from a backround filled with cosplay and performance. Enjoy the sights and songs of this enterouge as they sweep you into a world of fantasy. Namu the Griffon adores meeting new people and is excited to introduce you to his other puppet friends! You can find this little Troupe around various events as they travel with local charity groups to promote magic and fun with St. Louis Fantasy Puppetry and Performance.
