🪵 Woodman Classics is coming to Southeast Game Exchange 2026! - Travis is the proud owner and operator of a prop studio based in Atlanta, Georgia, where he works within the film industry bringing creative projects to life. Beyond his professional work, he has a lifelong passion for collecting retro video games and preserving gaming history. Woodman Classics is where my passion for prop making and retro gaming come together. Drawing on the same skills, tools, and techniques I use every day in the film industry, I create custom replicas, restorations, and one-of-a-kind projects inspired by some of gaming’s most memorable characters and collectibles. One of the most rewarding projects I’ve had the opportunity to work on was restoring the original animatronic Kazooie puppet used by Nintendo to promote Banjo-Kazooie during the Nintendo 64 era. As a lifelong fan of the game, getting the chance to work on such a unique piece of gaming history was incredible. The puppet required extensive repairs and restoration to bring it back to working condition, but seeing Kazooie move again after all those years made every challenge worthwhile. Through my YouTube channel, I share the stories and creative process behind these projects—from prop building and animatronics to restorations and retro gaming finds. Whether I’m recreating an iconic collectible, preserving a rare piece of gaming history, or experimenting with a new idea, I enjoy sharing the journey with fellow collectors, makers, and gaming enthusiasts. - 🎟️ Tickets Available Now - https://www.southeastgameexchange.com/ #sege #sege2026 #southeastgameexchange #southeastgameexchange2026 #gamingconvention gamingcon greenvillesc retro retrogaming retrogames retrogamer gaming gamingcommunity by @woodmanclassics
