    How hard is it to get into the puppetry program at UConn?

    This is confusing to me. Are you saying that in order to get an Associate's Degree, or even a Master's Degree in the class... you have to already have an Associate's Degree? How does this work? Unless you're saying that you have to go to school as a full time student, looking to get an...

    Help with Developing Puppet Voices

    Remember to speak clearly and articulate. Speak from the diafram. As i mentioned, make sure there is no light coming from behind you. Make a wall behind you to block light and direct and lingering sound to the audience. Good Luck

    Help with Developing Puppet Voices

    If you're doing this live, with microphones, i suggest possibly putting foam or thick fabrics like felt, on the wall facing you. Walls tend to bounce off sound, and if the mic is picking up both, you'll have an audience saying, "what did he say?". I'd also vote against a wall if you're not...

    Teaching With Muppets

    Interesting fact that most of you may not be aware of. Sesame Street, though used to help teach children, have MANY learning products for children to play with. However, are only used for children in their own home. I worked at a children's shelter for years, and i worked along side a head...

    Help with Developing Puppet Voices

    Well, i suggest not doing multiple characters per scene if you're having trouble making them sound different. If they're a little different, then thats fine too. I find that playing around with a character is the BEST way to come up with a character. The voice usually comes with playing...

    Making some Fraggle Puppets, and I could use some help/wisdom

    Making some Fraggle Puppets, and I could use some help/wisdom

    Thats actually a very easy way to go about making his head. The project sounds awsome! But i have some advice. Try building other characters of your own, before attempting to make a replica. I only suggest that because i was there once... and became horrified and scared. I KNOW i can...

    Project: R.O.W.L.F

    Check ebay for the 1970's (i think) Rowlf puppet. I'm sure no matter what the price they're asking for is, it will be cheaper then having someone make you one. :sympathy:

    Think twice before buying from puppet-planet.com

    JUST THROWING OUT SUGGESTIONS: To frogboy or whom ever talks to the owner of Puppet-planet. Maybe someone can mention that someone is trying to contact them in regaurds to their order. I'd hate to see someone getting a bad rep from only 1 costumer, and seeing many others feel that...

    Feathers

    Agreed!... I've tried jo-Anns and michaels... but they have small boas... If you want the longer, or choose to adjust the size yourself... or maybe buy a single color... i'd go with Tonyhill.net.
