The books in this photo taken at our workshop in 2005 give the identity of the designers and creators. Designed and made by StudioM at our workshop in Cooroy/Tinbeerwah hinterland. Moral rights/ copyright held RGM StudioM. View in largest size to read clearly. Sold, as seen here, to an animation and Promotions company which put in overhead mechanism to provide simplistic up and down movements...a simple method which is commonly used in such scenes for simple motion. This company has exhibited it widely since but their claims to be 'the mastermind' and 'creative force' behind it are COMPLETELY false, misleading and an abuse of copyright to the designer and creator, StudioM.
Juanita made elves and mice in her home at Clifton in 2005 to StudioM's specifications and drawings ...as with all of our scenes, all originals of any artwork, sketches, instructions to outside suppliers, remain with StudioM as does copyright.
This is a scene designed and drawn by StudioM in Dec 2005 for a suggested display for the Cadbury Factory in Dunedin. Copyright RGM StudioM 2005. StudioM later made these scenes to these drawings at our workshop in Feb 2006 for use in the Cadbury Factory in Dunedin in 2006 by a promotions company.
Making the Easter eggs is a very elfy business. Putting chocolate into moulds and joining them together with sticky tape or bandaids. Putting the egg into the 'Creme Eggs', making the fruity creme interiors, spinning the chocolate in moulds, dropping nuts into chocolate to coat, a busy factory of workers working to the music played by the musical elf, Wulfenite, while the mechanical elf, Zirconia, plays with his tools and the egg mould spinning thing. These Magical Elves, their names and personalities are as shown on the Cadbury website and on Cadbury's Magical Elves products which we wanted to include as part of Cadbury's already known products.

Bear stuffing, sewing, painting, glueing, sawing, hammering, squeezing paint in vice, flying a kite and racing with bottom in air. So much going on. The blackened chimney sweep elf can just be seen emerging from out of the chimney on doll's house. This is the first workshop scene StudioM designed and made at our home workshop in the Tinbeerwah/ Cooroy hinterland. An animation and Promotions company, which added some motion into the scene by inserting overhead a mechanism involving a motorised rotating shaft with cams attached. The cams rotate on the shaft and are connected by fishing lines to objects below, as shown. These objects move slightly as the cams turn creating a gentle up and down motion. The company has exhibited it widely since buying the scene as a promotional tool for the company. All original drawings, sketches and instructions to doll maker, are held by StudioM as the copyright holder, designers and creators of the scene.

The mice making a snowmouse and the one at the back sliding down a toboggan made out of a real sardine tin. The tracking system for this was made at the promotions factory to Peter's drawing... as it was their responsibiltiy for movement components. We replaced the handbuilt tin that had been made with a real one.
Scene designed and made under contract by RGM of StudioM, Tinbeerwah. Juanita Wellings in Clifton made the mice to my design drawings and instructions. They were posted to StudioM and we placed them into the scene before the transfer of the scene to the promotions company premises.

The workshop's supervising elf realises the mistake when the torn halves of both plans are put together. Yes... those silly elves have made a half plane, half car and are trying to mash both halves together.
Meanwhile...one mouse is rolling a tyre up and down a track and squashing the mouse underneath who moves automatically with the tyre movement. The mouse in the teapot pops his head up and down. The mouse with one hand on the handle of the battery pushes it up and down easily with his other hand on his hip. All designed to be moved by simple tugs on fishing lines attached to the moving parts and connected to cams through a rotating shaft at the top.
Designed and made by StudioM at our workshop in Cooroy/Tinbeerwah hinterland. Moral rights/ copyright held RGM StudioM. After this photo was taken, the scene was sold to an animation and promotions company which had a rotating shaft /cam mechanism inserted overhead to allow some simple up and down motion of the parts in the scene below, together with lighting. It has been exhibited many times since by this company, but any claims by the company and its puppeteer director to be the 'mastermind' and 'creative force' behind this scene are false, misleading and against copyright laws.

Yay, Neon Camera!! I love it when you are on during daytime.
I used to get my ridiculous amounts of film developed here, before I got my digital camera. They are a great place, and very nice here. However, I have spent an obscene amount of cash there over the years.

I took this photo of a part of the window on my friends front door - I liked the way the flag broke up.
mmmm..... Coming along nicely. The books on the shelf give the credit to StudioM for design and creation and Juanita for elf and mice making to our specifications.
Designed and made by StudioM at our workshop in Cooroy/Tinberwah hinterland.

Since its sale it has had some simple animation added to it by means of an overhead shaft/cam system and has been exhibited widely. Moral rights/ copyright held RGM StudioM. Others claiming to be 'the mastermind' and 'creative force' behind it are false, misleading and illegal.

The emergency candles to go on the side of the sleigh to help get Santa through the fog - windproof of course.

Santa has his own dummy at the tailor shop but as Santa's middle measurements grow every year his dummy has to have new extensions sewn on, to accomodate his expanding girth.
Dummies can be very useful as the chief elf Deebee knows too well. Scene designed and created by StudioM at our home studio 2003. Copyright held.

The Sports Editor in the newsroom. Puppets have been just temporarily placed for the photo - hence the stand and the tape on his feet to keep him in position

The first sketch of the design I did for a Christmas display which went into the Brisbane office window of Qantas in Christmas 2002. Designed by RGM StudioM 2002. Looking at the word Qantas upside down I made the connection with Santa - remove the 'Q' and replace with the 'S' on the end and you have 'SANTA' - hence the design had an elf doing just this.The original design had an elf placing antlers on the Flying kangaroo on the plane's tail. Santa has had trouble so Qantas is saving Christmas by giving Santa a plane to use to deliver the toys. A hand above is giving the keys to the elf in the foreground to fly the plane. As Santa has broken down close to Longreach the town where Qantas has its origins, it was befitting to set it in the outback with the Longreach connection. Designed by Studio M and the scene we made at our StudioM workshop at Tinbeerwah in October 2002 for use by a promotions company in the Qantas Brisbane office. Copyright held as is all original material.
This cheeky elf has been sent out of class for time out. I later added a bucket of soapy water to his hands so that he looks as if he is about to tip it over the guys below. This was done after the photos were taken but BEFORE it was sold to a Promotions company which has exhibited the scene widely through various media. However, claims by this company and its director to be the creative force and mastermind behind it are COMPLETELY false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of our copyright. The promotions company had no creative input into the scene as seen here.
Scene designed and made by StudioM 2004. All original works, sketches, designs etc held by StudioM. Although the scene was sold there was no transfer of copyright. Copyrights remain with the creators and designers.

StudioM also commissioned her to make the Professor to our drawings and specific instructions to his construction.
Santa's dummy has needed many extensions over the years around the tummy line and with the tape measure stretched to full capacity, the elfy tailors have a hard time.
Scene designed and created by StudioM at our studio 2003.
It has been exhibited through various media since this photo but any claims by parties other than StudioM to being its creator, 'the mastermind' and 'creative force' behind it, are COMPLETELY false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of copyright.

The Sudsomatic scene which was the first of many scenes designed and made at the StudioM workshop.The confused elf has answered the iron and continues ironing with the phone - hence the red ear. The elf in the back has the idea to use the irons as skates for more fun. The hole through the jacket explains the iron which lies sunken into the floor below. The flat mouse in the pocket of Santa's longjohns has just been squeezed through the wringer, whilst another elf administers first aid in the form of a tyre pump. This was one of the first two scenes which I made at our StudioM workshop. Designed and created by StudioM 2002 at our studio Cooroy/Tinbeerwah - see the sketch for the scene. The scene was sold to an animations and promotions company. It has been displayed many times and is still a favourite of ours. Copyright held by StudioM. All original sketches, drawings and specifications are retained by StudioM along with copyright.

Suddenly it starts coming together after weeks of work. It is great
when all the individual pieces you have been working on for so long
are put together for the first time and you can see the end result ahead. The original design we did that DJ's approved had an escalator with people moving down. This was meant to have a revolving belt with vertical people cut outs going around and around on a motorised conveyor belt but the animation company were nervous about making it and so we had to redesign the scene to include a staircase. After a lot of deliberation we were happy to do it as a partial staircase as shown, but the escalator and the movement would have looked better.

The gingerbread person is not too happy as a chef munches on his/her leg. A mouse is discovered in the milk urn as the ladle surfaces whilst gingerbread people are escaping an orange hot oven.
Designed and made by StudioM at our workshop in Cooroy/Tinbeerwah hinterland. Moral rights/ copyright held RGM StudioM. So0ld to an animations and Promotions company after it was made and this photo was taken. It has been exhibited widely in many media since. However, subsequent claims by this company and its director to be the 'creative force' and 'mastermind' behind it are Completely false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of our copyright. There should still be the recognition to StudioM as the designer and creator on the green book on the mantle - see other photos to see. If removed, altered, covered over or no longer visible, it is an abuse of copyright.

Lots of Elfoil required - the new Will's Hoist may help if Will can work it out.
Designed and made by StudioM. Photographed at our workshop before being sold to an animations and promotions company which added some simple motion to the scene by inserting overhead a rotating shaft and cam system. Since then any claims by the company or its director to being 'the mastermind' or 'the creative force behind it' are COMPLETELY false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of StudioM's copyright. All original sketches, drawings and specification notes for this scene and any others we designed and made, are retained by StudioM with copyright.
Mice/elves by Juanita to our specifications and drawings.
At the North Pole Decorations workshop, the Snow Baubler is in action to make those colourful decorations in time for Christmas. Catching them is just as much an art as is painting them. A low voltage light can be placed inside the diffuser under the bubbles, which really makes the scene come to life. If the stainless steel steamer sitting on the top of this diffuser is pulled up slightly and then allowed to drop with its own weight, it creates a gentle up and down motion as the machine operates to make bubbles from North Pole snow. This scene was sold after this photo was taken to an animation and promotions company which inserted a mechanism overhead to create some simple up and down movements. This system is quite easy to make - a rotating shaft run by a motor with irregular cams placed along it which rotate with the shaft. By connecting the puppets, bellows and steamer to the cams by fishing lines, some simple up and down movement will occur as they rotate.
Designed and made by StudioM 2005. Copyright held. By copyright law, there should still be an attribution to StudioM on the Treematic Treecycler machine on the right side facing viewer and this can be seen in the other photo, two along in the photostream.

An original display designed by RGM StudioM 2002. Santa has flown into a duststorm in the Outback and landed on the top of this delivery truck. Santa' s boots are waving in mid air and Rudolph with bent antlers is on the back reading an upside down map. A cattle dog is agawk at the sight while the driver is oblivious.

The books in the scene as they were in our workshop in 2005 showing clearly the credits to the true designers and creators. The scene was designed and made in StudioM's workshop and then sold to a promotions and animations company which inserted a simple commonly used mechanism above the scene to create some simple motion. The company has exhibited it widely and used it frequently in their promotions and marketing. Any subsequent claims by this company, its puppeteer director or any other involved in its display and exhibition to being its creator, 'the mastermind' or 'creative force' behind this scene and any of the other scenes shown on these pages would be COMPLETELY FALSE, deliberately misleading and an infringement of StudioM's copyright. Any removal or alteration to the attributions to how they are visibily shown here, with the purpose to deceive the true authorship, is against copyright. All original drawings, sketches and specifications to the dollmaker are retained by StudioM along with copyright.

The 7 largest heads for the front row. Click on comment to see photo taken of them as they were set in DJ's window. Again these were modified slightly with some getting new nylon realistic wigs and a whitewash. We personally prefer the originals as charactures rather than the washed out mediocre version that appeared.
