Hey there, I've been a puppeteer for 40 years and this is a REALLY FANTASTIC video on bringing a puppet to life. Very good tips for the puppet lovers out there. Good Job!
Hahaha!! thank you. This video is very usefull for me. I am just starting in puppetry. Talking about "the childrens knowns there are a person behind the puppet or marionet" Once upon a time, after mi show here en Argentina, one kid 4 years old came to me and told me "ARE YOU REAL?" nananananan PURE LOVE
Your story touches my heart! Thank you so much for sharing here. The beauty, fun and genuine appeal that can be shared through puppetry is truly a wonderful gift. Best to you in starting your puppetry practice. "Gordon", my co-host, has been on stage for over 25 years. This is an ageless, wonderful profession. Take care, Francie
Ahhhh!! Thank you for your energetic response. That really makes me happy. I'll be sure to let "Gordon" know... he's always trying to one-up me! You've got some cute puppet products. Best of luck to you! Francie
My biggest problem with my puppets is always to come up with their names. I work with small children (ages 1-3), and I find it extremely difficult to find simple names that are easy to remember, especially because the names need to work in norwegian as well. Any out there with any tips & tricks on how they do it. I am completely at a loss....
That was so good!! That was excellent. As a Puppeteer studying puppetry I have seen many ehh shows and performers but this presentation was superb. Really well done. It inspired me.
Michael... thank you so much for your words of support and encouragement. Art, the artist behind "Gordon" truly is so skilled. He knows how to make Gordon so real. You wouldn't believe how many times I forget that I'm talking to a piece of cloth! Ha! Take care... Francie
Is it me, or are Gordon's eyes made of plastic spoons and glass beans? Never thought of using spoons as the base for eyes.. As for the giant, a campy voice could go some very interesting places!
Walter.... that is great to read! There are so many opportunities to share such much through puppetry. Best of luck to you... glad what we had to share was of support. Take care.. Francie
Hi Ellen... thank you for watching our video. So...to answer your question in a completely non-professional tone... and you might even find a better definition on Google - Puppetry - is the actual technique of "how to " use the puppets. An example - as shown in the video - changing your voice to make the puppet reflect a character trait... or the use of the puppets hands - the tilt of the head to demonstrate that the puppet is "listening" to the audience. That's puppetry. Then... once you've learned those skills --- you get to put them all together in a show - that has a storyline. I hope that makes sense.... take care! Francie
Hi Frank... I'm just now beginning to figure out TH-cam.... and just saw a message you left - 6 months ago regarding the three little piggies song. You wrote I believe you were a teacher? I think you asked if I had any other songs ... and yes I do. Here's a gift from me to you for taking so long to respond... you can download it from CD Baby (this is the free download code) Take care... and if I can be of further help... just let me know. Francie Song: The Elephant Dance www.cdbaby.com/redeem EH3EDV-GAT6S9
That would be enough to produce quite a show! I can only imagine all the character traits that would be possible to explore with that many personalities. Take care.. Francie

Nice I did that for school
Are there any more episodes? :(
Is it me, or are Gordon's eyes made of plastic spoons and glass beans? Never thought of using spoons as the base for eyes..
As for the giant, a campy voice could go some very interesting places!
Thanks a bundle! This video helps me so much with me being new to puppetry!!

جميل جدا..شكرا على مجهودك 👏👏
Dearest Basma - thank you most sincerely for the double hand clap! Best to you. Francie
Puppet performances aren't always for kids! Sometimes they're adult performances with VENTRILOQUISTS like Jeff Dunham! Show me that!
is a good video to
5:32 Unless you want to be a ventriloquist.
Right... I'm leaving that skill for Darci Lynn... she's terrific.
I have 300 pupets
#littletinyplayer what?
300 what are you doing with 300 puppets how did you get them anyway
That would be enough to produce quite a show! I can only imagine all the character traits that would be possible to explore with that many personalities. Take care.. Francie
Love it! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed this... Take care!
Awe.. we really appreciate the enthusiasm :)
I think that you shoud worry about youre mouth moving
