#Christmas Puppet Project

Preproduction of the Christmas Puppet Project is nearly done! Since October, my friends and I have been working hard to make this short video a reality. Here are pictures of the process so far. 


A storyboard was needed to promote and explain my idea to potential puppeteers and crew. 
After some image research, I made sketches. 
Paperclay was the best material for sculpting the heads and hands. 
Many tests were needed to make sure the puppets worked properly with a minimum amount of puppeteers. 
A crash course in needle felting helped me create the animals for the scene. 
My friend Beth spent a lot of time creating the costumes for these characters. 
Here I'm working on finalizing Mary's head covering. She also has her arms rods in place. 
We are so excited to share this with everyone! Thank you for stopping by!
To keep up with this project on Twitter or Instagram look for #ChristmasPuppetProject. And stay tuned because filming day is this coming Saturday!!
