The bottom right hand corner of this scene, which proved popular with many people - the car hood can be lifted up and down to look as if it is continually squashing the mouse. As the feet of the mouse are secured to the rising hood plus its head and hand to the car underneath, the hood being raised makes the mouses head move voluntarily. Designed and created by RM StudioM. Attributions are on books under the car but cannot be seen here. The rego RMJW05 refers to the designer and creator, the puppetmaker and the year made. The bottom book used as a jack is titled 'Jack in a Book'. Photographed in StudioM workshop at Cooroy/Tinbeerwah in 2005. Copyright held.

Elves and mice made by Juanita in Clifton to our requests.

This mouse is holding up the sleigh for the elves to do their mechanical work. The line in the snow is the division between the front and back sections of the whole scene and where they are joined together on site. The sleigh is actually supported fairly securely off the side of the front section on the left.

This photo was taken at StudioM workshop May 2006

Scene designed and made by StudioM at our home studio in theTinbeerwah/ Cooroy hinterland, under contracts for both the design and its subsequent creation to a local promotions company which was employed by DJ's for the first time to install the windows. Kate Westgate, the original VM mgr partly responsible for the tender of the 2006 David Jones windows, visited our StudioM workshop and saw this scene two days before this photo was taken. It was the first of the six scenes that we designed and made at our workshop for use in the 2006 windows. She was very pleased with the progress we had done. Mouse design by StudioM -which holds the original drawings and instructions for their creation - made by Juanita Wellings in Clifton.

The clock on the mantle made by RGM of StudioM rotates easily from side to side with the clock face hands also going in every direction. One elf is hanging from chandeliers, another from a moving ladder. The 'Deck the Walls with Boughs of Holly' scene, one of six depicting popular carols, was designed and created by StudioM under contract to a Promotions company employed by David Jones to produce their 2006 Christmas windows.

The scene from the right side, taken in our small workshop. Designed and made by StudioM in 2004 at our workshop. A Christmas Eve traditional scene for a shop window. Santa is on a roof at the back on left side. The elves are playing instead of helping. One has taken the display candy sticks from the front off the shop roof to ski down the Candy Haus. The scene was sold after this photo was taken to a promotions company which created some simplistic animation by inserting a rotating shaft and cam mechanism overhead - a commonly used method in scenes like these to allow for simple up and down motion. It has been displayed many times by this company but any claims by the company or its puppeteer director to being the scene's creator, 'the mastermind' or the 'creative force ' behind it are COMPLETELY FALSE, deliberately misleading and an infingement of StudioM's copyright. The scene has recently been displayed displayed many times and lately in Christmas 2011 at the Enchanted Forest at Smith and Caughey's store in Auckland NZ, albeit it has been changed and altered. As the designers and creators of the scene, StudioM retains copyright along with all designs, specifications and original drawings.

We asked the dollmaker to make a rodent with certain characteristics resembling JWH after Senator Brandis's published comments of 'a lying rodent' in reference to a certain leader's falsehoods and consequently, the consistent practice for several months afterwards, of my favourite cartoonist, Bill Leak, to feature the then PM, with a long rodent tail protruding from a suit or his beloved Ozzie tracksuit, and dragging along the ground.

Click on photo-the books tell the true story. The first of a few scenes with this theme that I made and which went to the USA on a promotional tour.

The mice have invaded the house at midnight and are enjoying Santa's treats and the presents. I titled the scene 'It's e/very m/nice to get presents' - a later scene similar was titled 'The presence of Mice'. Designed and created by Studio M at our little workshop. Copyright held StudioM.

Juanita, a dollmaker from Clifton, successfully made mice to our design, drawings and specifications and elves to our specifications. Correct attributions of credits to her and StudioM are on the books on the mantlepiece as shown. The scene was sold, without copyright transfer, to a Promotions company AFTER this photo was taken, which added some simple up and down motion to the scene - they put in a simple overhead mechanism involving a rotating shaft with irregular shaped cams that were connected to objects below by fishing lines - as the cams rotated with the shaft, the lines would rise and fall creating a slight movement below. Very basic and simple method to add some simple motion to the scene and a method that is commonly used. Claims by parties other than StudioM to be the 'mastermind' and the 'creative force' behind this scene and our other scenes on this site are COMPLETELY FALSE, misleading and an infringement of our copyright. The red book on the shelf gives the true attribution to the designers and creators of this scene - StudioM.

At Santa's workshop the elves have been working to a set of working drawings which have been torn in half. Consequently half are making a car and the other half are making a plane. They have joined their efforts together to find they have made a 'plane car'. The elf on the left at bottom has just woken up to the mistake.

Photo taken at our studio BEFORE the scene's sale to an animation and promotions company. It has been exhibited and promoted widely and on the internet since. Claims by this company and its puppeteer director to being the scene's 'creator', 'the creative force' or the 'mastermind' behind it are not only COMPLETELY false but an infringement of our copyright held by RGM StudioM.

The village scene that StudioM designed and created in our small home studio and workshop at Tinbeerwah in the Noosa Hinterland. This shop and its shop front are removeable within the scene to allow access for maintenance. The roof is open at the back to allow for some lighting and for air movement. This is one of many scenes that were sold to a promotions company specialising in puppetry and animation. The promotions company added a simple mechanism overhead to provide some gentle, repetitive, up and down motion to the scene using a rotating shaft with cams that are attached by fishing lines to objects below the scene, thus causing a slight up and down movement with each rotation of the shaft and cams. Claims by the promotions company to having created it, been 'the mastermind' and 'the creative force' behind it are COMPLETELY FALSE, deliberately misleading and an infringement of StudioM's copyright.

Juanita Wellings made the mice to our design and instructions and the elves also to our drawings and specifications. All original sketches, drawings and instructions are retained by StudioM along with copyright.

This mouse has his hands over his ears as he cannot stand the the continual jingling - probably reflects the feelings of most of the viewers on the other side of the glass having to listen to the ongoing, annoying barrage of "Jingle Bells" being sung from the choir on the loudspeakers, as they view the David Jones Christmas windows in 2006 or just pass by. The mouse as designed in our original presentation drawings and made by Juanita Wellings in Clifton as per designs and drawings of such by StudioM.

Just as fast as Santa and his elves can deliver the presents under the tree, the mice, who think the presents are meant for them, are quickly moving in and making the most of the situation.

This group was the original back row of the DJ choir that StudioM made but not all got into the final scene and those that did were dulled down by the promotions company to conform with its preference for mediocrity. StudioM and others thought they were a humorous group of charactures to display the many diverse personalities and faces from within a dept store and make up a choir of marionette retailers. We wanted them funny and looking like gaudy marionettes as shown here, and inspired by the Mrs Sloakims type from 'Are you being served?' and were very pleased with our result especially compared to when they were transformed later in a poor attempt to make them 'realistic' looking. In our original design and concept we specified them to be obvious marionette characters which is what we accomplished. These looked so much better before their 'dulling down' process and were enjoyed by many who saw them in our StudioM studio as shown here.

Even elves need to learn and at the North Pole the young elves are taught all the things they need to know to be good helpers for Santa. Prof Bumbledelf is the teacher. Scene designed and created by StudioM 2004 at our workshop - displayed many times since we sold it to an animation and puppet company. We made a few later additions after this photo was taken and prior to its sale. Photographed at StudioM workshop in the Tinbeerwah/Cooroy hinterland. Copyright held by StudioM.

The Elfy School scene was designed and made by RGM of StudioM at our small home workshop. It was sold to a promotions company which installed a rotating shaft and cam system overhead to give some very simplistic up and down motion to the scene - this is a commonly used method of animation for such scenes. It has been widely exhibited and many aspects of the scene have been poorly copied. Subsequent claims by the company and its puppeteer director to being its 'creator', 'the mastermind' or 'the creative force' behind the scene above are COMPLETELY FALSE, dishonest, deliberately misleading and an infringement of our copyright. All original sketches, design drawings and specifications are retained by StudioM along with copyright.

The plane car scene showing the ingenious efforts of the simple elves to construct Santa's request, albeit all wrong - half a car and half a plane. The book behind the crate has attribution to the true designers and creators - Studio M and the puppetmaker Juanita - and can be seen in other photos very clearly. The scene was sold to a promotions company which animated the scene simply with an overhead rotating shaft and cam system. This is a commonly used system for simplistic and gentle up and down motion. The company had no creative input into the scene as seen here and saw it for the first time as it is photographed. The signs giving this credit should still be there and visible to the public as shown. Copyright Studio M 2005. Scene designed and made by StudioM at our Tinbeerwah workshop.

The one with the lying rodent..

After Senator Brandis's statement calling John Winston a 'lying rodent' and the subsequent media coverage, with Bill Leak's continual cartoons for months of a Prime minister with a distinct rodent look and long tail emerging from underneath a suitcoat, I could not resist asking Juanita to make a JWH rodent, complete with glasses and eyebrows, to use in a scene. However we have since renamed him as there seem to be more lying rodents around. Nearby, the hovering mouse desperately wants to be the angel at the top of the tree. Reflections in the bauble reveal identities i.e. me in all my working gear glory taking the photo after I completed the scene at StudioM's workshop.

Scene designed and made by StudioM at our Tinbeerwah/Cooroy home studio. AFTER this photo was taken, the scene was sold to a Promotions company which put in some simple up and down motion. The company inserted above the scene, a system of a rotating shaft with cams to which fishing lines have been attached to various objects below, eg the suitcase handle, allowing a simple move up and down with each rotation of the cam on the shaft. The scene has been exhibited many times by this company. Any subsequent claims by the promotions company or its director to be the 'creative force' and 'the mastermind' behind it or to having any input into the original creation of the scene as it appears in these photos, are completely false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of our copyrights.

I'm so happy with this eco-eonscious retail display!!! I spent over 30 hours sewing, painting, and producing the items that are included in this carnival celebration window, and it took more than 5 hours to install!!! The vintage velvet valance was created from a king sized bedspread sourced from craigslist, the red and white curtains from yard sales in Lake City, MN, the gas station 8's sourced from a flea market in Elko, MN, and the vintage gold tassel trim from an antique store in Duluth, MN!!! The felt banner handmade from felt scraps and thrift sourced binding!!!!

Back 2 sections of David Jones 2006 Christmas window 1- 'We Wish you a Merry Christmas' - where for the interior of a dept store setting a lot of depth and perspective needed to be created. The columns are within 10cms of the back wall. The front sections to join onto this part will house the steps on the left, the piano and pianist, the large tree, the conductor and the choir - so not much of this back scetion will be seen. Cut out silhouettes of people looking down on the choir singing are ready to be added to the top part with some clear perspex as the balustrade between the columns. Look at the photos to see it finished.

It requires a lot of ingenuity to make a car plus lots of elfoil, paint and many helping hands. This scene was displayed at Canberra Civic Centre in Xmas 2006 where the attributions to the true designer and creator on the books under Santa's mug and as shown in the text box when you hover on this photo, were illegally removed.

The original sketch design for the large sleigh with the window at the back for the engine display to be viewed. To be used in shopping centres where the children sit in the front with Santa for their photo to te taken. At the back of the sleigh is to be a window with a scene showing the mechanical workings of the inside of the sleigh, complete with elves.

Newspaper boy viewed from the other side of the 'Elfy Times' scene. Juanita made him to our specifications. This scene was designed and made by RGM StudioM so that it could be viewed from all sides as a 3D stand alone display - if motion is desired, the news boy can be operated with strings from above as can the elves from the other side of the scene. I designed it for a roof to be placed on top. Mechanism for creating some motion with a possible rotating shaft and cam system can be placed inside this roof space to connect strings between the cams and objects below. If this happens it is possible to create some simple up and down motion as the cams rotate.

StudioM commissioned Juanita in Clifton to make this doll for this scene to our specifications.

A close up of the 'Jingle Bells' backdrop that Peter painted. This was one of six windows depicting famous carols that StudioM designed and created under contract to a Promotions company for use in the David Jones Christmas windows 2006.The first 3 houses are 3D and the back 4 are painted directly onto back wall. We have yet to put the forms for the snow and attach the snow sheets which gave the perspective depth and the feeling of transcending down a steep slope on a mountain side. We added steps and signs to the houses as well. The Bell tower that Peter made is sittiing in place.

Twas the night before Xmas and not even a mouse.. Poor Santa stuck in the chimney, the elves delivering the present s and the mice who live along the rafters are overjoyed at the new gifts. Taken from the right side of the scene. The books on the mantle with attributions to the designers and creators as titles were added later. See other photo where they are seen clearly. Designed and made by StudioM in our Tinbeerwah workshop in 2003. Sold AFTER this photo was taken to an animations and Promotions company which put in some simple up and down motion by inserting a rotating shaft system with irregular shaped cams that are connected by fishing line to objects below. It has been exhibited at Smith and Caughey's Santa's House in NZ 2010, Cadbury's factory in NZ in 2006 and other places since its sale. However claims by the Promotions company and its director to be the 'mastermind' and the 'creative force' behind it are COMPLETELY false, deliberately misleading, and an infringement of our copyright.

The Treematic Treecycler machine and The Snow Baubler machine - designed and made by StudioM at our workshop. The white diffuser on the Snow baubler was made to house a light which exudes a warm glow and if motion is desired, the silver drainer on top can be continuously pulled up slightly and allowed to drop back down again, creating a very effective and realistic fantasy with little effort.
