Puppetry for corporate video and feature films
Puppetry for virtual corporate video and feature films
Recently Bebe Conrad and Benny Buettner were the puppeteers for a corporate video produced for Twilio. This is a great example in puppetry for virtual corporate video and feature films. Our task was to portray CEOs with Muppet style puppets for their corporate virtual production. Virtual corporate special events and seasonal holiday events can get so much more enriched with this entertaining art form.
Magic Circus has been providing puppetry for feature films such as
“How to Successfully Fail in Hollywood”, Benny Bendini/Benny Buettner was featured as an acting agent who interviewed his talent by utilizing his skills in puppetry and magic.

Past feature film credits include:
“Bicentennial Man” (with Robin Williams) Here Benny Buettner was doing puppetry for this feature film by animating artificial lungs of a robot. The robot wanted to become human and his body became as part of his growing experience more and more alive. Bicentennial Man is a American science fiction comedy-drama film. Based on the 1992 novel The Positronic Man by Isaac Asimov and Robert Silverberg (which is itself based on Asimov’s original 1976 novelette “The Bicentennial Man“), the plot explores issues of humanity, slavery, prejudice, maturity, intellectual freedom, conformity, sex, love, mortality, and eternal life. The film, a co-production between Touchstone Pictures and Columbia Pictures, was directed by Chris Columbus. The title comes from the main character existing to the age of two hundred years.
Benny Buettner and Bebe Conrad are members of the San Francisco Puppetry Guild.
Since 1954, SFBAPG has served the greater Bay Area. They are a chartered Guild of Puppeteers of America, and one of the earliest, largest, and most active of the guilds.
Membership includes many full-time professional performers, theatre artists, film- and video-makers and animators, puppet sculptors and builders, plus educators, therapists, dedicated hobbyists, youth, and just plain fans.
We also collaborate in community events including puppet fairs, exhibits, and education projects. We arrange member groups to attend noteworthy performances in the region. A sizable contingent of their membership usually attends the biennial regional and national puppet festivals, and they are proud to offer a scholarship program for this purpose.
