Here is a series of images I drew based on the Skeksis from Dark Crystal, in human form. All in all, this was a fun project to work on. Enjoy.

Fenrir has a face! It’s been a long time coming and I’m very happy with his #wolfishgrin There’s still a lot finishing and fine tuning left but he’s reached a point where I can set him aside and attend to projects with closer deadlines. Fenrir has a shoot scheduled in Spring so that’s enough time to step away and refresh my perspective and motivation. I also need to rearrange my basement so he has a place that doesn’t block doors and living space.

Tonight's warm-up. No guesses this time. This film and DarkCrystal have influenced everything I've done. Definitely visible in The Conjurers. Not that you should choose between the two, but which is your favorite? . . . #labyrinth #labyrinthmovie #labyrinthmasquerade #labyrinthofjareth #labyrinthcosplay #labyrintheprojet #davidbowie #art #illustration #jimhenson #fantasy #drawings #labyrinthdrawing #goblinking #darkcrystal #henson #hensonstudios #hensoncreatureshop #creatureshop https://www.instagram.com/p/CC7LSDfhLvw/?igshid=4pnxztwefx24

They're green and they're on the screen!

Licensing fuckery that flies way over pat's head, continued:

Disney bought Hensen (Company) but did not buy Sesame Street characters. Sesame Workshop remains the owner.

Hensen (Individual) also did not sell rights to shows made by Creatureshop like Farscape or Fraggle Rock. Disney doesn't own Farscape or Fraggle Rock. Hensen (Individual) still does.

Westworld (Warner Bros. TV/HBO co-production; Again, HBO usually avoids these, but in this case it is at least under the same corporate overlord.)

The Larry Sanders Show (HBO/Sony Pictures TV co-production; this is why when Gary Shandling passed away, the show wasn’t available for streaming on HBO, because Sony had likely driven too hard of a bargain. It’s now back on HBO.)

Jack Ryan (Amazon/Skydance/Paramount co-production; sometimes you can even do these as a three way. If the underlying IP is valuable enough, it can demand its own separate pot of profit money.) The Tick, Good Girls Revolt and Sneaky Pete (Sony co-productions).

House of Cards (Media Rights Capital co-production). Orange is the New Black. (Lionsgate co-production) Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life. (Warner Bros co-production). Lost in Space: 2018 Series. (Legendary co-production) Marvel Series (Marvel/Disney co-production)

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. (NBC-Universal co-production.) BoJack Horseman. (The Tornante Company co-production)

Each side brings something to the table in a co-productions. The TV producers have all the talent so they demand some sort of backend profit participation. The network is paying money, so they get some sort of participation too.

Then, after the initial agreed upon windows or run is complete, the rights revert back to the TV production company [CM]. (Historically, networks used to not pay for 100% of the costs of a co-production, but with fewer revenue streams, that is becoming the norm.)

This is what the WB/CM arrangement and deal is. While it operates on licensure, it is not a fully licensed product, but rather is allowed to use licensed material while creating new material.

A "licensed" show is just a show that a streamer for example doesn't have a financial stake or downstream revenue in. Like, Nexstar is talking about licensing content from other places than CBS and WB to put on the air. It would benefit from the airtime but does not own that content. Nexstar owns the airtime

The use of licensed CHARACTERS is a funny metaphor of this. If Nexstar owns the airspace, Chaos Machine owns the dev space. WB content is then put inside of it, but it is not only WB content.

This is why the pilot script had these three:

For example, despite nominal Producer credits listed, CBS has no actual stake on this property, draft, or materials. The only thing they own is Jared Padalecki's ass.

CW pays money to host a show that Jensen made and may or may not have some demands and requests about what content it will air can look like, and WB might have critique on how to use old-SPN characters, but it has no stake over new Winchesters characters, for example.

(I say "the right to" critique. Pointing at my bits on Zaslav and Roth elsewhere, that's really not something I'm foreseeing us having to deal with much from WB)

CW generally folds to WB anyway. Like

lmao

Jensen owns a good chunk, and what he doesn't, I must reinforce, there's nobody to stop him from doing what he wants with the rest anyway

and it's so, so funny to see who quickly shows their asses in their desperation for that to not be true.

At the end of the day the actual like aired, wrapped, distributed product will be owned by WB due to the various ways this bounces around. But like. Story ownership. Character ownership is. Another thing. That's basically going to be a blender.

like genuinely who the fuck do these people think is getting paid when Chaos Machine releases an episode?

It was quite the honour for @stitchesandglue to co-ordinate and present a select number of hero #puppets on behalf of @hensoncompany for the recent #darkcrystal exhibition at the @britishfilminstitute Celebrating the launch of #ageofresistance on @netflix. A great excuse to call on the talents from within the Uk #creatureshop crew and get these incredible characters ready for public display for all to enjoy.
