Sesame Street Bloopers “Street Gang: How We Got to Sesame Street” (2021)

[angelicartemis]

CW: Blood/Blood Stains

YIPPEE I GOT A HANDFUL OF DRAWINGS FROM HELLOPAINT RAAGHHHH!!!

I'm not sure as to why I've been drawing on there recently? But the brush is honestly really nice to draw with, imo. It hits different- 😫 But anyway, DOODLE TIME EEE- (This is me trying to put down enough text to separate the CW and the first drawing because it's the one with blood. 💀)

There's different fandom drawings?? in here so I'll just slap my Habit stuff down first because I'm a little gay gremlin-

Sillay little Pabit, I don't draw him enough honestly-

Got a couple DCA drawings- I'm really proud of the Sun one. I even tried to color it in procreate but uhhh it was really late so it remains unfinished- 😔

My ass would STRUGGLE to draw the DCA for a long ass while, but I think I have a somewhat good footing when it comes to drawing them now? Assuming my style doesn't instantly change up when it comes to drawing them again- 💀

KERMIT AND BIG BIRD DOODLES??? WOAHH THAT'S CRAZYYY 🤯

I really like the big bird doodles, he's pretty fun to draw ngl.

Yesterday I had fallen down a tiny spiral of muppet/sesame street bloopers, and aside from the silliness, I just love the art of puppeteering overall. It's so admirable as to how full of life those puppeteers make the characters look. There's so many different types of puppets too it's crazy, but they all make it look SO EASY. Like bro, how the hell did Big Bird's actor/puppeteer (current and past) even manage to operate him? (Years of practice ik, shush-) HOW DO THEY KNOW WHERE THEY'RE GOING?? I know with the handheld puppets, their puppeteers look at monitors on the ground as a visual aid, BUT WHAT ABOUT BIG BIRD? AND SNUFFLEUPAGUS??? 💀 Snuffy has TWO people operating him, THAT'S CRAZY-

I'm rambling omg, but ANY WHO, I just love that shit. I actually never really grew up with sesame street nor the muppets, but I admire the work behind it. I genuinely want to make a puppet of my own so bad just so I could learn how tf to make one move so fluidly, and to just be silly with it. I think it'd be a load of fun.

anyone have the video of like. the sesame street/ muppet bloopers? where they're all talking to one another as puppets

[electra-jolts-magnetism]

I miss this SO FUCKING MUCH!!! They did it with the Lion King as well! It just made the movie so much better and in my opinion taught kids exactly what acting was.

Like Hopper from A Bug’s Life, looking back, I wasn’t “scared” of him during the movie, but I lost all fear I had for him when I saw the scene of him messing up his lines. Like he was just a funny guy grasshopper playing the Villain.

This actually reminds me of the actress who played the Wicked Witch of the West, Margaret Hamilton. She appeared in character on Sesame Street, which scared so many children that it was never aired again.

TLDR: Blooper reels can show kids what acting is and make villains less scary.

Ok you fucking rule this js amazing, I kinda knew most of this cause I was REALLY into this guy and figuring out if he's a vampire or not and I mostly made the poll to see what the people think but God DAMN is this a good explanation

Also I wanted to add my personal favorite interpretation of the count but since the poll is still up and I DONT WANNA SKEW THE DATA I've decided to leave it under the cut 😊👇

Ok so my favorite interpretation of him is that he IS a vampire, but not one that necessarily feeds off of blood. Rather, he's some sort of ENERGY vampire, deriving his life-force either from counting or from teaching kids to count!

I do, however, think the comedic element of this muppet drinking actual human blood is not to be ignored. Case in point:

This comes from the Sesame Street bloopers as shown at SDCC 2019. You can this scene at the 2:54 mark of this video:

I will not tell you my my answer, I do NOT want to skew the data.

Okay but empowered people have to have, like, their own movies, right? Like even if the studios are pretty indie and whatnot there’s gotta be movies made by empowered people for empowered people don’t you think? I mean, they don’t necessarily need CGI for a lot of special effects especially given Illusory magic can be seen on camera

Like. Gimme Psychokinetic boom mic and camera operators. Air and Water Elementals making real storms instead of using a rain machine. Fire Elementals making safe explosions to look cool walking away from. Earth Elementals temporarily altering a landscape so the actors can run over it easier. Telepaths reminding the actors their lines or blocking in the middle of a take and occasionally messing with them for a good blooper reel. Sonal Energetic score composers. Graviton Energetics making falling/flying stunts safer. Electro Energetics who make the most incredibly cinematic lighting. Fire Contra-Elementals making it possible to use actual snow and ice for filming winter scenes in the middle of summer. Ooh—Dreamwalkers doing pre-visualization presentations maybe?

Gimme empowered romcoms with goofy whacky magic shenanigans keeping the leading couple from confessing their feelings. Gimme a silly, satirical adaptation of Romeo and Juliet where House Capulet are Water Elementals and House Montague are Fire Elementals. Gimme shifters playing the big scary wolves in a movie but their tails give them away as having a great time to any shifter watching (not wagging, shifter actors are too good for that, but there’s a certain twitch other shifters recognize as “I love what I’m doing now!”). Gimme kids cartoons and Sesame Street talking about keeping covert in simple terms and teaching about magic much better than the DUMP videos. Gimme, like, the Nickelodeon and Disney Channel teenager shows about newly manifested adolescents learning about their powers (gimme several comedic-but-informational shows about humanborn teens trying to hide their magic—usually written by humanborn adults with the main character, of course, played by magic-born teenagers. The supporting cast of unempowered teens are also actually magic-born and they have fun pretending to be clueless about magic) that become memes in empowered internet spaces.

Just. Gimme empowered movies and shows. Please.

Street Gang: How We Got to Sesame Street (2021) is a documentary about the beginning and early years of the children's television show Sesame Street. It roughly follows the show from its start in 1969, through some highlights, and ends with Jim Henson's death in 1990.

Sesame Street revolutionized television with the belief that a show for kids could be both educational and fun without sacrificing either value. The intent was to enrich children's lives without talking down to them, and to do it using as much creativity as possible. This is the beauty of this documentary, the merging of artists and educators to create something amazing.

The history of Sesame Street is long and ongoing (the show is still on the air). Some of the stories in this film don't feel like they get the time they deserve, but one hopes that they just make more documentaries about Sesame Street. Modern-day interviews with the show's creators are accompanied by archival clips and behind-the-scenes footage.

This film made me cry twice at how thoughtful and loving my favorite children's show was to me when I grew up. If nothing else, watch it for the Muppet bloopers.
