00:00Wake up. Are you deaf?

00:02Eric is a seven-foot-tall blue puppet.

00:05He's this realization of Edgar, my son's drawings, of a monster.

00:10And shortly after, his son goes missing.

00:12My character's mental health deteriorates,

00:14and this monster called Eric becomes utterly real for him.

00:18Eric is gonna help me find Edgar.

00:20To bring Eric to life, we worked very closely with Stitches & Glue

00:24and an illustrator called Poppy K.

00:26But he went through many, many different phases.

00:29We talked about, should he have a tail, shouldn't he have a tail,

00:31should he have ears, should he not have ears?

00:33There's a huge legacy of monsters that you have to steer away from.

00:36And then the animatronics and the builds

00:39and selecting what fur, what colour.

00:41Like, it took months and months and months.

00:43Thank you for making me.

00:45It's nice to be here.

00:47Eric was inhabited by a truly gifted performer, Ollie,

00:51who's this ridiculously talented puppeteer.

00:53Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

00:56Eric is performed as a puppet,

00:58so his head is driven by my hand,

01:00which means that from a performance-on-set point of view,

01:03I'm delivering the lines, so Vincent can respond

01:06and all those scenes can play out in real time.

01:08And then afterwards, we put Benedict's voice.

01:11Now we're cooking with gas.

01:13There is no line of sight out of the costume,

01:15because when the head goes on,

01:17it's impossible to actually see directly out of the suit.

01:19So there is a set of goggles, and in the goggles, this is how I see.

01:23His vision is from cameras, which are sort of dotted around the set,

01:27and then the actual live camera recording the scene.

01:30He's got four screens there.

01:32He's in a virtual reality stage in his head.

01:34It's an amazing skill.

01:36The final layer on the performance is animatronics,

01:40so working alongside me,

01:42Phil does the eyes and the eyebrows that do all that wonderful motion.

01:45Then there's Lawrence, who performs the ears.

01:47So it's a real team effort to bring this character to life.

01:50It was extraordinary to interact with him,

01:52because we all became like children again.

01:54We all stopped seeing the puppeteer, and we all kind of got goofy-eyed

01:57and wanted to shake his hand and have our photos taken with him,

02:00and it really felt magical.

02:02They are a seamlessly brilliant team,

02:04and he's a lot of fun to act with on set.

02:07The novelty never wears off. He always makes me laugh.

02:10He just kind of cracks jokes.

02:12He does practical comedy as well as improvises.

02:14Don't you hate puppets?

02:16He's a real presence on set.

02:18It feels like I'm acting with another character.

02:20You may not like me, but you need me.
