    Sugarbaby Music Video On MTV.com

    It is perhaps one of the biggest technical mistakes to make on any puppet video shoot. If anyone is going to make a video with any type of budget, please provide your puppeteer(s) with a monitor. It makes a world of difference. Even if your director has experience working with puppets...

    The Floating Face puppet

    Hey muppetfan89, Just a black glove with some simple foam attached. It is done the way Grant Harding has done it in his Youtube video here. Just imagine it done with the peprformer(s) wearing all black (including a hood) and in front of an all black background. Hope that helps.

    Easy Pattern Making?

    What a great find David! For sure that has lots of puppet application potential. The only drawback for me personally would be the sheer number of cuts and small pieces. I know that there are some on this forum who have been working on some simple software that would do the same thing...

    learning puppetry

    I say the first step is lip sync WITHOUT a puppet. Bare hand. I think that a puppet on your hand can hide some of the imperfections of your lip sync in a bad way. If you have good technique without a puppet first, then once a puppet is on, that will translate to the lip sync with a...

    Elephant nose problem

    I am going to use an odd candy analogy to describe how to build it. Imagine a stack of lifesavers (say ten) and now imagine piece of shoelace licorice running through the middle but attatched to the inside of each lifesaver snuggly. Stagger the lifesavers so that it is lifesaver, space...
