#Ass puppetry free
He talked about adapting Terry Pratchett’s The Wee Free Men the challenges of puppetry the improv show Puppet Up animatronics and puppetry Fraggle Rock Labyrinth and its fandom the heart and goals of the Henson Company previous and upcoming Henson Company projects the interactions of the Muppets with real people and celebrities adapting classic literature using The Muppets and much, much more! Next, I asked Brian some questions during his Dragon Con press conference and it was awesome. And finally, we have a bit of the audience Q & A that Brian Henson did at the end of his panel, with some cool insights into what it’s like to be a puppeteer. In this clip, Dave Chapman (one of the BB-8 puppeteers of the aforementioned Puppetry of BB-8 panel, along with Brian Herring) joined Brian Henson from the audience to help him demonstrate how two puppeteers can work the head and hands of a puppet in synch (or sometimes not so much in synch!). The second clip is another fun demonstration, this time of dual puppeteering.
I tried to capture a little bit of that for all of you as well, so check out the video clip linked above to take a look. It was delightful to be able to see both what Brian was doing “behind the scenes” and camera and what the puppet’s actions actually looked like on screen. In one, Brian Henson demonstrates the Henson method of puppeteering with an actual puppet. I was also fortunate to be able to ask Brian Henson some questions at a small press conference and now, of course, I get to share all of that with you!įirst we have a few clips from the Evolution of Puppetry panel which are just super fun. Both were fantastic and I found it just fascinating to watch the magical way in which the puppeteers, behind the scenes, bring the puppets to life. This was due to two panels I attended, Brian Henson’s Evolution of Puppetry, and The Puppetry of Star Wars’ BB-8. In my recent Dragon Con Round-Up I shared that this year’s Dragon Con kick-started a new fascination with puppetry for me (which, if you can imagine, may someday even rival my obsession with voice actors!).
