Puppet stealers

We were shooting a long shot of the big puppet (the person sized Dryad) walking up this public lane last night. Each time we moved the puppet the animator had to walk about ten meters away from her to avoid being in the shot.  Each capture was taken with a three second shutter speed, meaning the puppet was alone and quite some distance from the camera and crew.
Around 12 am a party of revelers appeared and a chap thought it funny to take the puppet to scare the ladies in his group.  We had to chase them down and take the puppet back.  Luckily marks on the ground let us know where the puppet was located so we could continue the shot... the perils of out door shooting!
