    New Puppet!

    Here's my latest. It's based on a drawing by my client, Frog Puppeteer right here on the forums! He's made of anti-pill fleece and adapted from the Project Puppet Simple Series Roly Pattern. I made a foam shell for the body to help support the tail. His eyes are plastic baseball "Easter Eggs"...

    Flat Eric?

    I can usually figure out how stuff was done, and this type or performance is way different than your usual puppet stuff, so CGI and post production could be the answer… I was sent this clip and instantly loved the puppet. I guess I've lived under a rock as this is the first time I'd heard...

    Building a posable puppet hand

    My first attempt at a "how-to" video. I devised a technique for building posable puppet hands. This demo shows how to do it for a Project Puppet Simple Series pattern, but it will work with most any hand type you'd want to build. Hope this helps some folks out! How to Build a Posable Hand

    Eye Alert!

    Okay builders - get to Walmart quick! Easter is a grand time to collect puppet eyes with all the plastic eggs available. I found these "baseball eggs" - perfectly round, perfectly halved and no impressions. The red stitches come off super clean with a swipe of acetone (finger nail polish...

    Röyksopp "The Alcoholic" A Puppet's Tale

    An acquaintance made this video for a contest. He said he purchased the puppet in NY (maybe from one of our members?). I hope to work with him soon on a puppet-building workshop. Röyksopp "The Alcoholic" A Puppet's Tale

    The Wild Banana!

    Hey folks, some of you may have seen this little puppet in the last Project Puppet Super Hero contest. I would like him to go to a nice home where he can be cared for and played with, I think he'd be fun for a show - I just like to build them, not perform with them, so he's barely used. Nothing...

    Henson Polar Bear Puppet

    Wow, what an awesome costume. Any guesses how it all worked? I see both arms and paws working, but not at the same time. Maybe the operator switched off hands between mouth and paws? Two operators? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5EwU7ymHyM

    The ZowNow! Show

I did the red monster with green horns and purple hair (my avatar, also the top picture on the ABOUT US page and in the first video clip), Gracie...

    Monster Puppet on ebay

    I've had this guy a while. Very well built by Pierre at Monster Puppets. I love the puppet, but he needs to be starring in a production somewhere. Thought someone here might be able to offer him a stage...
