Robyn Coburn NOT the designer of this show.
I wish I could get my name off these credits!!! I did not do this show!!!Here's the story...
I had been working as the Production Designer of a movie entitled "The Dummy" by Keith Singleton some time in 1995 or '96. It wasn't a hugely original script but it should have been a fun project, reasonably suspensful, and the dummy figure itself was as creepy as many of these are.
During Prep we built one set on a sound stage in the Valley, and fully painted and decorated an abandoned house in Riverside as the main set. Exteriors were going to be around Riverside also.
The start date came and went without principal photography starting but a lot of talk, and then finally some 2 weeks later it became clear that the project had collapsed apparently due to funding issues. I arranged for all the rented props and furniture to be returned, and my art director dismantled the built set.
My connection with the show ended without a single frame having been shot, and with some acrimony since neither I nor any of my small crew were ever fully paid for the work done! I don't believe that the vendors or the sound stage were paid fully either.
Now this apparently awful turkey is being distributed with my name attached to it, in what I can only assume is someone's misguided idea of reparations. I am not interested in taking the credit for what must be someone else's work. I did not design these sets, and indeed have never seen the picture or had any contact with Mr. Singleton or his company since the picture pushed all those years ago.
