Puppet Making

[Drtooth]

Man. When I come to the puppetry board, everyone talks of putting fleece and wigs and mouth plates. The best I could do was sock Puppets for a short school video (I'd give someone a copy, but it's practically rated X, R at the least). I wish I had time to do that stuff!

Good grief. What do you do at your school?!

 

[Drtooth]

Well, it's an art college. a lot of people make movies of their friends smoking and swearing, so I though that if I do the same with puppets (minus the smoking) it would be a fractured lens toward other projects!

Look @ this book

If you are interested in working with foam I suggest that you take a peek at The Foam Book by Drew Allison & Donald Devet.

It was published in 1997, with a second printing in 2000. More info can be found at http://www.greysealpuppets.com

Good luck with the puppet construction!

Thanks! Now if I can get some foam, some money (to buy the foam) and some free time, I'll draw up some plans.

The two biggest problems in my life...

Time & Money.

When I have the time, I have no money.
When I have extra money, I have very little time.

Maybe I shouldn't sit at this PC so much?

hey doctort13, what Oscar appearance is that from? I happen to remember something on somebody else's macintosh this program that teaches kids about the trash icon on the desktop or something. WILL YOU PLEASE CLEAR THIS UP? Thank you.

btw, your icon is what I was talking about.
