SETS are differentiated from props in covering entire environments. They range from interior effects like our frozen room to vast landscapes of whimsical trees, bushes and flower beds; faux frozen snowbanks, and recreations of Stonehenge.

Building some sets in miniature can make it possible to quickly and cost efficiently realize extensive sets: martian landscapes; huge castles on hills and dreamlike farms whose crop is row upon row of McDonald's restaurants. They allow other advantages: greater contol of weather effects like our foggy moor gravesite; the use of forced perspective to quickly conjure up expansive vistas like Monument valley with Bart Simpson shaped buttes; also providing scaled environments for small puppet and toy characters like the locker room for our Bud Lite hockey game players and the trailer park for our PSA pregnant teens.

Working in the other direction, building sets over lifesize can also create otherwise impossible sets- figure sculpture so large they become the environment, like our Coneheads arena or our stomach interior for Perfect Circle.
