New TV Puppetry Course opens in Sydney

Our brand new Puppetry for Film and TV Course opened last week with a wonderful bunch of fifteen new students. So the work has begun to train another talented group of aspiring puppeteers into performing for the camera. The eight week course started with simple hand and ball eye focus and lip-sync exercises, before design and construction of the basic television puppet begins and the performance follows in a few weeks! You can see their progress thus far in the slide show here!

Short film of our latest TV Puppetry Course

Our April to June 2008 Puppetry for Film and Television Course has just been completed and an incredibly talented bunch of individuals participated. The quality of their improvisation work with the puppet on camera was awesome. I have uploaded a few extracts of the participants work and it's available to check out here!

We are now starting a new Wednesday evening course this week with a brand new group of aspiring puppeteers at the Wesley Institute in Sydney. If anyone is interested in any of these courses, please get in touch and I'll send you more information. Watch this space for more of this inspiring student work soon!
