Trinity Valley School Animatronics
Meet the Fort Worth team! Seniors Courtney and Pooja originated animatronics at Trinity Valley School (TVS) and Class of ’14 alum Zach has been on-site expert an animatronics enthusiast as we’ve taken our stuff on the road to New York and Seattle. Luke Jacob and Ginger Alford are faculty advisers.
With a passion for creative narrative, TVS senior Courtney wrote the original Percy script and prepared and presented the writing portion of an animatronics workshop at Microsoft Research in June 2014. She also plays field hockey and plans to major in engineering in college next year.
TVS Senior Pooja built the original Percy the Cat using puppets and aluminum that was part of our first major show: The Great Escape. She traveled to World MakerFaire New York in 2013 to setup and demo that show, where it received an Editor’s Choice Blue Ribbon. A serious dancer, Pooja plans to major in engineering next year.
