- Some puppeteers wear all black.

- Some puppets need more than one puppeteer.

_ Some puppeteers hide in view and some don't.

- Some are moved with hands, others with rods or strings. Some with several methods.

- It's acting with a sculpture.

- ADULT PUPPETRY EXISTS!


By the way, I not only draw but I'm a puppeteer and puppet builder too as well as an independent filmmaker.
