I have been looking around and can't find anything on this subject. We will be doing a production of Curtains this spring, and there is a scene where a character gets caught in rigging and is pulled up as a curtain lowers or closes. For OBVIOUS reasons this can not be done with a real person. Unless we call in zfx, foy, ect. Which we don't have the money for. So we turned to making a dummy for a solution.
I wondering if any one has any tricks or techniques that might help me make a realistic "ish" dummy / human figure / analog. (Keeping in mind this effect will be far upstage with significant distance between the audience and the dummy)
