Come learn the basics of puppet manipulation. We’ll be focusing on Hand and Rod Style puppets, but will discuss principles common to all puppetry techniques including Breath, Focus, and Weight. We’ll also dip into lipsync, simple stretches for puppeteers, and some handy tips for beginners. Have a puppet or make a puppet at the con? Bring it along!
Love puppets but not sure where to get started in performance? Why not just wing it? In this workshop you’ll learn some basic improvisational techniques and play some character development games to bring out the personality of your fur or felt friend.
