Talk:Pepe the Cricket

Category?
I rented The Adventures of Pinocchio to do some Wiki-mining. Checking the credits, and comparing with the archived Creature Shop site and No Strings Attached, it seems that the cricket *model* was designed by the Creature Shop, and scanned, and that was it. In the end, A French CG company, MediaLab, receives credit for the character, with its own list of sculptors, modelers, animators, and for some scenes, even French digital puppeteers (who had no involvement with Henson). In light of that, when Henson's only participation was the original scanned model and it's unclear to what extent (if any) the final version resembles that model, does he still count as a creature? (If not, then the info could be made a note on the film's page). Thoughts? Usually this is a fairly simple process, even when other FX companies involved (either they worked on seperate characters, or else Henson did the animatronic parts while other companie did CG fill-in or touch-ups), but this is a greyer area. -- Andrew Leal (talk ) 06:06, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
