Jim Henson's Commercials & Experiments

260605580_1610b8c220_o.jpg An exclusive screening selected from muppets, music, & magic: Jim Henson's legacy
A mind-blowing collection of shorts, crazy commercials, and other rarities from the Henson vault. Highlights include: an industrial film for Wilson’s Meat that must be seen to be believed, commercials featuring the LaChoy Dragon, a full-body character that caused Frank Oz to swear off doing any others, animation utilizing techniques ranging from stop-motion to early computer animation, excerpts from The Cube and Youth 68, the two episodes Jim and company created for NBC's Experiment in Television, and a 35mm print of Time Piece, an Academy Award nominated 8-minute masterpiece that showcases Henson’s talent for making music out of everyday sounds."

Thanks for the tip, Erik!

Must be seen in theater but here is an early short. Time Piece. Its a jaw dropping experience.
