Design model maker.Puppet fabricator.
At Meta, Victoria turns hands-on model making into new ways to feel and interact — from Ray-Ban Meta prototyping to the silicone fingertip behind the open-source DIGIT tactile sensor.

Created hands, and cast bodies.
(Baby) Its you!
Seamed/painted Victor, and created his costumes.
My favorite is the cricket, he had the smallest puppet hands I have ever had to wire, cast, mold and seam. The mice also have silicone ears, that had to be see through.

Victoria Rose Most is a stop-motion puppet maker and toy designer based in Seattle, Washington. Originally from Clawson, Michigan, she specializes in silicone and resin casting, mold making, seaming — and the tiny, perfect hands that bring puppets to life.
Her film credits include Laika’s Coraline (hands, boots, torso), Henry Selick’s Wendell & Wild, and A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas. She led a six-person team building seven puppets for Athena Studios’ Mermaids on Mars, which won Best Animation at the Carmel International Film Festival, and fabricated puppets for the Cheetos “The Delivery” commercial. Her prototyping work at Fathom covered clients including Nike, Pepsi, and Clorox.
A former LAIKA employee, Victoria is currently a Design Model Maker at Meta, where she has worked since 2018. At Meta, she has co-authored published research on tactile robotics, including the DIGIT sensor. She is also the co-founder of Rawrz Toys, her line of handmade designer toys.
When she’s not elbow-deep in silicone, she gives talks on puppet fabrication and documents her process for fellow makers.

Craft at the
edge of touch.
Victoria’s fabrication practice extends into tactile robotics, where silicone surfaces, miniature construction, and precise prototypes help machines sense the physical world.
