    This something I’ve always wondered about, the animation of the mouth, which actor or writer does it belong too?
    It could be JH’s as I know he’s the voice, but it kinda looks like Brian’s mouth, anyone know…I know it’s trivial, but it has bugged me for a long time.

    squishums, nothing is too trivial for us to argue over [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img], if you go to scifi (us) under chat transcripts, the talk with jeff hirschfeld, he says he is the mouth as well as the eyes (:eek [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

    wait a minute, squish, i’ll have to check that out for you, i am having doubts as to whether it’s on us scifi.com..i’ll get back to you darlin…fx (does anybody else remember?)

    that picture of jh is from the ‘still had hair’ period [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]…at any rate, the reason i put a smiley in around the eyes comment was because jh was being funny, we think, the eyes are definitely toons…and sorry squish, haven’t found original talk for you yet…love fx

    Being a computer artist, I doubt that they film his eyes for the robot-head graphics. It seems clear to me that 790’s eyeballs are computer animated. However, I’d believe that they use JH’s eyes as a [i]reference[/i] for the eyeball animation. [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

    Well, I had a once decent link to some 790 info, but it’s dead. Darn!

    Ah well! typical of my days lately.

    Squish, have you seen 2.03 “Lyekka”? Cos, Jeff was in that as “Bando” (I think)….Jeff is the mouth of 790 (At least in Season 1) and during season 1 he controlled the movement of the eyes. I don’t think he does anymore as during season 1, he did all 790’s stuff “live” on set whereas now, its all pre recorded.

    Actually I had no idea the writers had made appearances, I think I heard that Lex Gigeroff was in one or two of them, although I have no idea which ones.
    If anyone has knowledge of which eps the writers appeared in, then I would be grateful to hear from them, I’m always curious to see what the people behind the genius look like in the flesh…so to speak.

    Ok, this is all off the top of my head so nobody shoot me if I forget any.

    Lex Gigeroff:
    1.1 IWHS as His Shadow
    1.3 EP as one of Bog’s minions (I forget the name)
    2.5 Lafftrak as various roles
    3.07 Tunnels as Dr.Rainbow….

    Jeff Hirschfield:
    1.3 EP I think, but I’m not too sure
    2.3 Lyekka as Bando

    Thats all I can remember right now…

    Now I remember some of them (thanx mercury), Dr Rainbow, he was the mad surgeon wasn’t he???
    He’s had quite a bit of acting in Lexx, I love this, it adds such a personal touch to Lexx, it’s like they all take so much pride in the programme and it means more to them than just a job.
    Kinda like three good mates having a laugh and enjoying what they are doing, I hope that never changes as I think that is what makes Lexx so great.
    This programme was made for themselves and not to satisfy some fat greedy tv execs.
    It’s nice that they did this, as it shows what can be acheived if you want to do something of your own, it’s inspiration for other’s.

    I hadn’t thought of it like that, but I see what you mean. I like that. It *is* kinda inspiring. [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]
