National Lottery

Machine Shop built and operated an animatronic turley for this National Lottery commercial.

A turkey called Bernard was brought in from Norfolk by taxi to act as the model for the sculptors and animatronic technicians at Machine Shop so that a realistic and convincing puppet could be built. Whilst the puppet became the focus for much of the filming and integrated seamlessly into the final edit, Bernard became a pet and now wanders happily around in MD, Paul Mann's, garden.
