Directory of Puppet Builders

[mrhogg]

Hey all,

Does anybody know of any online directories of puppeteers and puppet-builders, where a person making something (tv/web/film/etc) would go when looking to find such a thing? I just finished my first big for-pay puppet-building/puppeteering thing, and I want to get some momentum going. I was thinking of adding myself to any directories out there, but I quickly realized that I don't know where any of those directories are.

Any help/links you could provide would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Brian

Thanks, Tom. Mandy.com's the kind of site I'm looking for; do you, or does anybody else, know of any others?

Hey Brian,

What about Chuck's Toronto Film and Video Directory? You could post under Prop Building and Buying. I check their site out often.

I'll check it out. Thanks for the link!

Kanja, do you list in many places, or are you strictly word-of-mouth?

Hey Brian,

Up until this point I have mostly gone on word of mouth. I probably should have put myself out there more, but since it is a side gig I have found that I have been able to get enough work to keep me busy.

Plus, being a family man limits the time now more and more.

Who know's, maybe I will follow your lead and do some more advertising.
