Puppet building how to guides or help websites?

[Muppetsdownunder]

I was wondering if anyone knew any puppet building guides or help websites, or any websites on how to build puppets (mainly muppet style ones). I am also interested in any websites on how to perform/manipulate puppets and staging etc.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,
from Paul

Try these to help get you started:

The Puppetry Homepage - Hundreds of links to info on just about every aspect of puppetry.

The Tumbles P. Bear Project - Ongoing series of articles documenting the construction of a Muppet-style hand and rod puppet.

Puppet Manipulation for the Camera - Great article about video puppetry by puppeteer Leo Brodie.

Puppet Eye Tutorial - Great eye-making tutorial from Armslength productions.
