    What happened to the Puppetforge? www.puppetforge.com the link is dead :confused: I loved those Rex Racoon movies actually. I downloaded the clips from there if anyone still wants them. And I was wondering if anyone knows of any other puppetry clips online.

    Looking for some good links on building puppets

    Hi I'm new here, I just started studying the concept of puppetry because I'm planning on making amateur movies with a friend. I noticed puppetry comes in very handy in the field of special FX. Yoda comes to mind for instance. What I'm looking for are informative links, books, articles and...
