Dave Barclay: Puppeteer for Yoda and Jabba the Hutt

Dave Barclay worked on both The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, bringing two of the most iconic Star Wars characters ever to life. Beginning as a sculptor working with Stuart Freeborn, Mr. Barclay was then quickly ushered into the Henson world of puppets, controlling Yoda alongside Frank Oz. Returning to the galaxy to work as Jabba's right hand, Mr. Barclay has had a storied career in movies (including great work on Dark Crystal, Labyrinth and Who Framed Roger Rabbit?).  We go through as much as we can! We want to give special thanks to Derek Maki and Coolwaters Productions for setting this interview up. For more information about upcoming appearances (as well as how to purchase autographs), check out CoolwatersProds.com Mr. Barclay's next appearance will be at the Central Canada Comic Con, from on October 26th-28th, 2018 at the RBC Convention Centre in Winnipeg, MB.
