    Yogi Bear and Huckleberry Hound puppets

    I found this picture of voice actor, Daws Butler, who provided the voice of many cartoon characters, including Yogi Bear and Hunckleberry Hound. Anyway, I found this picture of him with two puppets of his characters. I mean I know he was a puppeteer on Time for Beany, but does anyone have any...

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    Pixar is great, I love pixar. I can't wait to see the upcoming Wall-E. I just meant that CGI has become oversaturated. I just think that kids don't need animation to enjoy a movie. If they could understand situations in animation, I'm sure they won't have a problem watching live action movies.

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    I just finished watching it, and I haven't seen this movie in about 12 years, since I was 5 years old. I like as much as I did then. It's just a really good film for both kids and adults, which is important, IMO, for a successful kid's movie. After watching it, I also realized that kid's movies...

    other forms of puppetry

    besides the moving mouth hand rod or hand glove puppets, do you do any other forms of puppetry? I perform ventriloquism, and now I'm think about getting into marrionettes. I just don't know where to start with it or how to make a marionette. What I really want to know is how to marionettes with...

    Few Muppet Questions

    Because Richard Hunt died and they couldn't find a replacement for him. I think/hope he will. I think the best sketch is In the Navy with the Viking Pigs. It has a good song and it's one of my favorites. Not sure. I doubt it.

    The Muppets Take Manhattan behind the scenes

    was there behind the scenes footage or documentary about this film. I ask this, becuase I was looking some Jim Henson tributes on you tube and some of them had footage of the film being shot. You can see the scene where Kermit is running to Jenny after having his script thrown away, and the...

    Thank you! I realize my designs weren't great, but I think with practice I'll hopefully get better, the same with the puppetry and writing as well.

    Paul Louis

    He hasn't worked for the Jim Henson Company, but for those who don't know him, he's a puppeteer, who has many videos on expertvillage.com where he talks about puppetry and he also has several videos on youtube. I am very surprised that he's never work for Henson, he's a very good puppeteer. Take...

    I just did a puppet show!

    yes it is. I can't wait. I have so many questions I want to ask, I just don't know where to start! I really hope other muppeteers show up to the event. I've always wanted to meet Caroll Spinney and Jerry Nelson.
