    Crank Yankers: Henson influence or not?

    got to agree with punknpuppets here, if you dont like something dont support it dont watch it, nobody is forcing you to, secondly, as i have stated before in other threads , any puppet project that uses hand and mouth puppets is going to look muppet like, its a style of puppetery much...

    How do I get a job as a Muppeteer?

    is it just me, or does it seem that nobody reads thru soem of these posts? anyway, buck and phil are right, it is highly unlikely that they will do some sort of open cattle call in the near or distant future, and besides as i have stated before, in order to puppeteer in film or telelvision...

    My puppets can't see!

    A beginning...

    well your getting there, might i suggest that when working with short pile fur you sew by hand, it helps avoid that hard seem also it looks like your covering is a little to big, you dont need to make it so much larger than your foam understructure, the skin pattern should only be about an 1/8...

    no i wasnt close to any of the puppeteers, the workshop and the puppeteering are two very seperate things, rarely did the two groups interact, at least now adays, i do consider most of the people i worked with at the shop friends, and i do know some of the puppeteers, but not on a social level...
