I'm in the pre-planning stages for making a 7 foot tall puppet and I have not a ton of puppet crafting experience, so this was a great resource to come across!
Wow! You're so talented, I'm trying to figure out how to make a giant crush from finding nemo puppet that people can sit on top of, this was really helpful for the mouth and neck. I'd love to put this show on one day, looks really cool!
I loved the show. As for the puppeteers I would suggest a simple Lycra pullover mask for them to wear to keep them more of a mystery. Their skin and heads really “pop” out under stage lights. They could blacken their eye sockets wth hockey tape, so when whey come out to take their bows, all of it can easily be removed back stage. As usual, another fantastic production.
Hi Adam! There’s this popular musical right now called “Epic: the musical”. It’s a retelling of Homers the odyssey. It currently only has a concept album but hasn’t been brought to stage or the screen yet. In the first act, a cyclops is introduced and I like to imagine how the musical would look if it were staged. I figured the cyclops could be some sort of giant puppet. I guess my question is, how would you simulate or create a puppet for a live version of this musical?
I thought this was a great show, I even sent it to my nephew who has three kids. When I saw this I thought of you but wasn’t sure that you built them. I thought it was good. Great show, as always excellent work
Idk if it's on your channel and I can't find it, but can you do a muppet style dog like Sprocket from fraggle rock for tv and theatre, something you can use behind a curtain or under a table etc. please??? your channel is so rad
hai adam thank you for sharing! this is amazing! can you please explain more about how the head conects to the body. is it constantly fixed or is it removable? and how can it turn to left and right? thank you
Adam, the puppets are amazing, and I've been a huge fan if you couldn't tell from the pfp, and I was wondering if maybe someday you can come on my small podcast? That would be so cool
I got an idea! What about if you could make a monster eating puppet! My monster character is big V. The act is called, the inchworm. Kermit's appearances where he's just sitting on a wall and singing the inchworm theme. So there were inchworm's listening to the music wile Kermit is singing. 2 worms got eaten but the 3rd worm was not an actual worm, big V has a long shape like worm and big V then divourd Kermit at the end of the act. Please make it! Go to Google and check big v and make it showing your video.
I made one but the face it looks sad so I can't let it sit there so I made a back story for this sad low face☹️ I gave it a name so I won't be calling it a thing or object.
Nice try, but i request a tutorial on how to make a "full-bodied walk-around costume puppet" (e.g. Big Bird), Please. After all, I am a fan, and i'm gonna start a puppet show on youtube, and Vacation Bible School.
It’s not a magic trick. People already know it’s a puppet. I think it respects the audience intelligence to not try to hide the workings. We try to put more of that energy into the story telling.

These puppets were Amazing! My favorite!
@Kermit the frog the one in my profile picture? No that’s Actually Grover, met him and Eric Jacobson at the Sesame Naming Ceremony in 2019

Instead of the wizard of Claus it should've been the winter of claus
Coolest puppet ever
Amazing
About to watch this show right now, looks great
Let me know what you think!!!
@@PuppetNerd liked what I've seen so far. Incredible work on the giant snowman especially
I’d be interested in seeing something about stationary large puppets that someone could use for a walkthrough show.
How and or where Did you learn puppet making? Did you go too college for it, or was it just a fun hibbie?
You can leave all that here! ua-cam.com/video/cKe0YIHJb7w/v-deo.html
Can you create a hedghog and porcupine and make them fight please
I like both animals but not fighting

Hey where is the podcast interview with Dave Goelz that you promised
It’s available now at Puppeteers of American website.
May I ask where did you get the aluminum strips
I may watch your movie!!
Thanks Abby! I think you will like it! I love your videos too! Keep up the great work!
@@PuppetNerd thanks Adam! Your so awesome at making puppets!
The reindeer actor really let your puppet down with the moments he made with it compared to when you were showing off the tapping hoofs
I'd like to know how you did the knee joints in the reindeer.
2:14 why didn’t you just make it a suit
If its a suit, then how will the mouth move?
You know the saying. Work harder not smarter. 😂😂😂
I'm still impressed tho, creative way to make a puppet.
Can you try to make crash from crash and Bernstein
Adam, the puppets are amazing, and I've been a huge fan if you couldn't tell from the pfp, and I was wondering if maybe someday you can come on my small podcast? That would be so cool
Play sounds a bit like a winter version of the Wizard of Oz
Kinda! Check it out!
Hey is there a way you can teach us to make one of the puppets from Avenue Q?

Must have cost a lot of money lol
It sure did!
Hi first
Ill never understand theater productions with puppets. Why do we see the puppeteer? That ruins the magic of it. Could not stand Avenue Q.
It’s not a magic trick. People already know it’s a puppet. I think it respects the audience intelligence to not try to hide the workings. We try to put more of that energy into the story telling.
Habla español >:v
Hey I want a puppet made can you make me one please. I have a picture.
He doesn't do commissions. He's got plenty of tutorials though, why not try making it yourself?
