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...
Toasty, I have very little to no pull with the Mr. Meaty show. I hope they come out with a DVD set as well, I really like it.
Thanks everyone for the kind words and great feedback. This is indeed an exciting time for me.
I will be trying to update my blog more often as well. Look for a...

CHENSATIONAL PUPPETS
Lots of fun stuff going on there. Let me know what you think.
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.
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...
I understand your difficult situation.
I do hope however, that you offer the company some helpful input and let them know about the difficulties that you had with the puppets. Perhaps some constructive suggestions could be put forth to them?
Any company worth their weight, would want...

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...
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...
Are you taking about Groundling Marsh? I think you rae. Freat show. Excellent puppets, nice characters, super puppeteers (a bunch of them will be at the Puppets Up! festival this summer), and a Canadian show. Got to love it.
