My daughter and I spent a little time hanging out at a local park called Gleneden and I wanted to try out the stabilization feature (sport mode) on my iPhone. I used blender for the camera tracking and 3D compositing in the intro shot.
Pinball Countdown – Sightseeing: World Tour
The PBS Sesame Street Pinball Number Count (or Pinball Countdown). Segment #7 – Sightseeing – World Tour recreated in 3D animation. Fun fact: Number 7 is the only segment where the ball doesn’t enter a hole at the end.
The music was composed by Walt Kraemer, arranged by Ed Bogas, vocals by The Pointer Sisters, assorted San Francisco Bay Area jazz musicians, including George Marsh on drums, Mel Martin on saxophone. It was recorded in 1976 and it debuted in Feb ’77.

J in Space
A loving tribute to the Sesame Street cartoons “M in Space”, “V in Space”, and “Z in Space” that debuted during season 4 in 1973.
Pinball Countdown – A Day at the Carnival
The PBS Sesame Street Pinball Number Count (or Pinball Countdown). Segment #2 – A Day at the Carnival recreated in 3D animation.
I chose to painstakingly recreate this classic animation from my childhood for a couple of reasons. For one, I absolutely love it. It’s such a funky and creative cartoon. Secondly, I took it as a challenge to see if I could pull it off. It turned out to be so much fun modeling each scene and animating the pinball. I’m pleased with the result, although I do not think I will be recreating the other number segments anytime soon.
The music was composed by Walt Kraemer, arranged by Ed Bogas, vocals by The Pointer Sisters, and Andy Narell on steel drums. It was recorded in 1976 and it debuted in Feb ’77.
